At the dose escalation and expansion stages, the subjects must have at least one two- dimensionally measurable lesion as the basis for evaluation by CT, or MRI, if CT is not applicable: for intranodal lesions, the long diameter is ≥ 1.5 cm; for extranodal lesions, the long diameter is ≥ 1.0 cm; 5. ECOG performance status score: 0-2; 6. Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks; 7. The laboratory test results should be met before each cycle beyond cycle 1 (blood components, short-acting cell growth factors, albumin, and other drugs are not allowed to be given within the first 7 days of laboratory tests; long-acting cell growth factors are not allowed to be given within the first 14 days): Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.0×109/L; Platelet count ≥ 50×109/L; Hemoglobin ≥ 80 g/L; Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5×ULN; if there is liver invasion, serum total bilirubin ≤ 3×ULN; Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5×ULN; if there is liver invasion, ALT and AST ≤ 5×ULN; Serum creatinine ≤1.5×ULN or creatinine clearance estimated by Cockcroft-Gault formula ≥ 30 mL/min; International normalized ratio (INR) or plasma prothrombin time (PT) ≤ 1.5×ULN; 8. Women of childbearing potential and men with a partner of childbearing potential who consent to use highly effective methods of birth control during treatment and for an additional 90 days after the last administration of the protocol specified treatment; women of childbearing age without surgical sterilization must have a negative result in serum HCG test within 7 days before enrollment in the study and isn't breastfeeding. Exclusion Criteria: Clear history of drug allergy, foreign protein, biologics or ingredients of investigational drugs; Uncontrolled active infection during the screening period; Previously received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or solid organ transplant; or received autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or CAR-T cell therapy within 3 months; CNS metastases, or other serious central nervous system diseases (such as epilepsy, cerebral infarction, and cerebral hemorrhage) within 6 months, History of neurodegenerative condition or CNS movement disorder. Subjects with a history seizure within 12 months prior to study enrollment are excluded; At least one active person is known to have human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), or hepatitis C virus (HCV). Subjects with evidence below are eligible for study entry: Human immunodeficiency virus antibody (HIV-Ab) is negative; Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is negative; when HbsAg or HbcAb is positive, HBV-DNA (HBV deoxyribonucleic acid) is < lower limit of detection; Hepatitis C virus antibody is positive, and HCV RNA is negative. Toxicities caused by previous anti-tumor therapy has not recovered to grade ≤ 1 (CTCAE v5.0), except alopecia and other tolerable events as determined by the investigator; Develop any other malignancy within 5 years (except for completely treated cervical carcinoma in situ or basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer); Use of any vaccine within 4 weeks prior to initial pretreatment with dexamethasone or methylprednisolone or during the intended study period; Systemic immunosuppressive drugs, including but not limited to radiotherapy immune conjugate, antibody drug conjugations, immune/cytokines, monoclonal antibodies, etc., have been used within 4 weeks prior to initial pretreatment with dexamethasone or methylprednisolone.
