Other illness

• Known allergy to macromolecular protein preparations or known hypersensitivity to the components of the administered drugs;
• Uncontrolled hypertension despite optimal treatment, defined as systolic blood pressure \>150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>90 mmHg;

• Subjects with any active autoimmune disease or a history of autoimmune disease;
• Subjects with active infections or unexplained fever \>38.5°C during screening or before the first dose (subjects with tumor-related fever, as judged by the investigator, may be enrolled);
• Subjects with a history or current evidence of pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial pneumonia, pneumoconiosis, radiation pneumonitis, drug-related pneumonitis, or severely impaired lung function;
• Subjects with a history or current evidence of bronchiectasis, cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis, lung abscess, rheumatic heart disease with mitral valve stenosis, or cardiogenic pulmonary edema, which could cause hemoptysis;
• Subjects with a known history of psychiatric drug abuse, alcoholism, or drug addiction;

Lab values

• Subjects with congenital or acquired immune deficiencies, such as those infected with HIV or with active hepatitis (transaminase levels not meeting inclusion criteria, hepatitis B reference: HBV DNA ≥1000 IU/ml; hepatitis C reference: HCV RNA ≥1000 IU/ml);

Other

• Subjects with central nervous system metastases;
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women or those planning to conceive during the study period;
• Subjects whom the investigator deems should be excluded from the study, such as those with factors that may lead to early termination of the study.

• Signed a written informed consent form before enrollment;
• Age \>18 years, both male and female are eligible;
• Patients with pathologically confirmed advanced biliary tract that has progressed after first-line gemcitabine-based therapy;
• Have measurable lesions (according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, non-lymph node lesions with a long diameter ≥10 mm on CT scan, or lymph node lesions with a short diameter ≥15 mm on CT scan);
