3. Diagnosed with histologically confirmed FIGO stage III-IV primary epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer treated with three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy,

6. Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or with features suggestive of MDS/AML,

9. Active tuberculosis that is not controlled within 1 month of treatment,
10. Patients diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder or substance abuse disorder that would interfere with your ability to cooperate with the trial,
