  • Life expectancy more than 12 weeks.
  • Subjects enrolled must have measurable lesion(s) according to response evaluation criteria in solid (RECIST) v1.1.
  • Adequate organ function assessed by laboratory parameters during the screening period
  • Female subjects agree not to be pregnant or lactating from beginning of the study screening through at least 3 months after receiving the last dose of study treatment. Both men and women of reproductive potential must be willing and able to employ a highly effective method of birth control/contraception to prevent pregnancy.

Subjects with the following conditions will not be excluded from this study: asthma that requires intermittent use of bronchodilators, hypothyroidism stable on hormone replacement, vitiligo, Graves' disease, or Hashimoto's disease. Additional exceptions may be made with medical monitor approval;
  • Known history of hypersensitivity to any components of the Toripalimab formulation;
  • Concurrent medical condition requiring the use of immunosuppressive medications, or immunosuppressive doses of systemic or absorbable topical corticosteroids. Doses 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent are prohibited within 2 weeks before study drug administration. Note: corticosteroids used for the purpose of IV contrast allergy prophylaxis are allowed;
  • Active central nervous system (CNS) metastases (indicated by clinical symptoms, cerebral edema, steroid requirement, or progressive disease);
  • Uncontrolled clinically significant medical condition, including but not limited to the following:
  • congestive heart failure (New York Health Authority Class \> 2),
  • unstable angina,
  • myocardial infarction within the past 12 months,
