25. Was administered a live vaccine ≤ 4 weeks before tislelizumab Note: Seasonal vaccines for influenza are generally inactivated vaccines and are allowed.
Intranasal vaccines are live vaccines and are not allowed. The mRNA vaccine for SARSCoV2 is allowed if the second dose is administered two weeks before study drug is administered.
26. Underlying medical conditions (including laboratory abnormalities) or alcohol or drug abuse or dependence that, will be unfavorable for the administration of study drug or affect the explanation of drug toxicity or AEs or result in insufficient or might impair compliance with study conduct.
