3. Moderate-to-severe ascites with clinical symptoms.
4. History of hepatic encephalopathy.
5. History of gastrointestinal hemorrhage within 6 months prior to the start of study treatment or clear tendency of gastrointestinal haemorrhage.
6. Active or history of autoimmune disease.
7. Interstitial lung disease that is symptomatic or may interfere with the detection and management of suspected drug-related pulmonary toxicity.
