  - Prior to administration, the vial must be allowed to reach room temperature (≤25°C).
  - Aseptically withdraw 4 mL (120 mg) from each of two vials (total 240 mg dose) and dilute into an intravenous bag containing either 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection or 5% Glucose Injection to achieve a final concentration of 2.4 mg/mL.
- Missed Dose: If a dose is missed, administer it as soon as possible. Subsequent doses should be rescheduled according to the prescribed interval (every 2 weeks) based on the date of the last administered dose. Decisions should be made under a physician’s guidance
Adverse Reactions:

- Serious Adverse Reactions: Immune-related adverse reactions (irAEs) can be severe or fatal and may involve any organ system, including pneumonitis, colitis, hepatitis, endocrinopathies (such as thyroid disorders, adrenal insufficiency, type 1 diabetes), nephritis, and severe skin reactions. Other serious reactions include severe infections and infusion-related reactions.
Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to the active substance or any excipient

- Immune-Related Adverse Reactions (irAEs): irAEs may occur during or after treatment discontinuation. Monitor patients closely. Most irAEs are manageable with corticosteroids and/or treatment modification (dose delay or discontinuation) according to established guidelines.
- Infusion-Related Reactions: Monitor for signs during and after infusion. Interrupt or slow the infusion rate or discontinue based on severity.
- Special Populations:
  - Hepatic or Renal Impairment: Not recommended in patients with moderate or severe hepatic or renal impairment. Use with caution in patients with mild impairment.
