- The time is calculated from the date of last administrated dose of platinum therapy to the date of radiographic imaging with disease progression.
- Patients must have received 1 or more prior systemic lines of anti-cancer therapy with or without bevacizumab or a PARP inhibitor, and for whom single-agent therapy is appropriate as the next line of treatment:

- Active infection requiring systemic IV antibiotics or hospitalization within 14 days prior to administration of study drugs. Regular treatment of urinary tract infection (UTI) and/or topical treatment are allowed.
- Patients who have not recovered to CTCAE V5.0 Grade 0 or 1 (except chemotherapy related peripheral neuropathy in Grade 2 or less, or endocrinopathy with adequate replacement therapy) from any toxicity and/or complications from major surgery or prior cancer therapeutics before starting therapy.

- Any evidence of current interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis, or a prior history of ILD or non-infectious pneumonitis that required steroid treatment.
- Patients who have active inflammatory bowel disease or intestinal obstruction.
- Patients who, in the opinion of the Investigator, have a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the study, have mental health issues that might interfere with the patient's participation for the full duration of the study or make study participation, or not in the best interest of the patient. The Investigator should discuss with the Sponsor and/or study leaders.
- Participating in other clinical trials or receiving other anti-cancer therapy. Patient who has prior anti-PD-1, PD-L1, or CTLA-4 antibody based therapies will be excluded.
