Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Evidence of active infections, including but not limited to Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. 9. History of other primary malignancies. 10. History of the following ophthalmologic abnormalities:severe dry eye syndrome; keratoconjunctivitis sicca; severe exposure keratitis; any other condition that may increase the risk of corneal epithelial damage. 11. History of severe skin disease or chronic skin disease requiring oral or intravenous treatment. 12. History of interstitial pneumonia, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, severe pulmonary insufficiency, symptomatic bronchospasm, etc. 13. Peripheral neuropathy greater than Grade 1. 14. Patients with active autoimmune disease or a history of autoimmune disease, who are using immunosuppressive agents, or systemic hormone therapy and still receiving within 2 weeks prior to enrollment. 15. History of cirrhosis (decompensated cirrhosis Child-Pugh class B and C). 16. Received anti-tumor vaccine treatment 4 weeks prior to the first dose or planning to participate in anti-tumor vaccine trials. 17. Female patents with a positive serum pregnancy test or who are breast-feeding or who do not agree to take adequate contraceptive measures during the treatment and for 6 months after the last dose of study treatment. 18. Other conditions inappropriate for participation in this clinical trial, at the discretion of the investigator.
