Intervention

Drug:
• TQB2928 Injection + Azacitidine for injection
TQB2928 injection is a fully humanized Immunoglobulin G 4 (IgG4) subtype monoclonal antibody targeting CD47. Azacitidine for injection is a nucleoside metabolism inhibitor that inhibits DeoxyriboNucleic Acid (DNA) methyltransferase, reduces DNA methylation and alters gene expression.
