There should be at least a 2-week interval from the previous small molecule targeted therapy, at least a 1-week interval from traditional Chinese medicine treatment with antitumor indications or minor surgery. Additionally, treatment-related adverse events (AEs) should have recovered to NCI-CTCAE grade ≤ 1 (except for grade 2 peripheral neurotoxicity and alopecia);
8. The ECOG physical performance score of 0-1 in the week prior to randomization;
9. Expected survival ≥ 3 monthes;
10. Laboratory tests within the previous week confirm adequate organ function (within 14 days prior to the first dose of medication, without receiving interventions such as blood transfusions, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, or recombinant human thrombopoietin);
11. Male and female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use at least one highly effective method of contraception during the trial and for at least 6 months after the last dose of the study drug. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to enrollment.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. History of any second malignant tumor within the first 2 years prior to randomization;
2. BMI \<17.5 kg/m2;
3. Symptomatic, untreated, or progressively worsening central nervous system (CNS) or leptomeninges metastases;
4. After appropriate intervention, uncontrollable pleural effusion, pericardial effusion or ascites still need to be drained frequently;
5. A history of ≥ grade 3 radiation pneumonia; A history of (non-infectious) interstitial lung disease (ILD) requiring steroid use, or a current ILD, or suspected ILD cannot be ruled out by imaging at the time of screening; Or there are lung diseases leading to clinical severe respiratory impairment;
6. Subjects exhibit poorly controlled cardiovascular clinical symptoms or diseases, including but not limited to: (1) NYHA class II or above heart failure, or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 50%; (2) unstable angina; (3) myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident within the last 6 months (excluding lacunar infarction, minor ischemic stroke, or transient ischemic attack); (4) uncontrolled arrhythmias (including QTc interval ≥ 450 ms for males, ≥ 470 ms for females) (QTc interval calculated by Fridericia's formula); (5) poorly controlled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \> 150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure \> 100 mmHg despite active treatment);
7. Subjects who are preparing for or have previously received an organ or bone marrow transplant;
8. Within the 2 weeks prior to randomization, there is the presence of an active systemic infectious disease requiring intravenous antibiotic treatment;
9. Used strong inhibitors or strong inducers of CYP2D6 or CYP3A within 2 weeks prior to randomization;
10. Received systemic corticosteroids (prednisone \>10 mg/day or an equivalent dose of similar drugs) or other immunosuppressive treatments within 14 days prior to the first dose; with the following exceptions: use of topical, ophthalmic, intra-articular, intranasal, and inhaled corticosteroids; short-term use of corticosteroids for prophylactic treatment during situations such as the use of contrast agents;
11. History of adverse events leading to permanent discontinuation of immunotherapy; or a history of grade 2 or higher immune-related pneumonitis or myocarditis;
12. Active or suspected autoimmune disease. Patients with autoimmune-related hypothyroidism who are undergoing thyroid hormone replacement therapy are permitted to participate in the study; patients with controlled Type 1 diabetes mellitus receiving insulin therapy are also allowed to participate in the study;
13. Live vaccinations or attenuated live vaccinations should not be administered within 4 weeks prior to the initial dosing. Administration of inactivated viral vaccines for seasonal influenza is permitted;
14. Known history of severe allergic reactions to macromolecular protein preparations/monoclonal antibodies, or allergy to components of the trial drug formulation;previous treatment with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) using a topoisomerase I inhibitor as the payload;
