10. Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative blood pregnancy test and agree to use reliable methods of contraception (hormonal or barrier methods or sexual abstinence) with their partner throughout the study period and until 3 months after the last dose.
11. Male participants must agree to use reliable methods of contraception (barrier methods or sexual abstinence) and avoid sperm donation throughout the study period and until 90 days after the last dose.

2. History of malignancy other than B-cell NHL within 5 years prior to study entry, except for local cancers that have been clearly cured or have been free of disease for at least 5 consecutive years.
3. Participants with clinically symptomatic metastases to the central nervous system or meninges, or other evidence of uncontrolled metastases to the CNS or meninges, judged by the Investigator.
4. a) History of or current relevant CNS pathology as epilepsy, seizure, paresis, aphasia, apoplexia, severe brain injuries, cerebellar disease, organic brain syndrome, psychosis; b) Evidence for presence of inflammatory lesions and/or vasculitis on cerebral MRI.
5. Participants with a history or evidence of serious cardiovascular disease, including but not limited to:

   Acute coronary; Coronary angioplasty or stent implantation within 6 months prior to first dose of YK012; Clinically significant unstable arrhythmias (e.g., atrial fibrillation) , however, whose atrial fibrillation have been controlled for over 30 days prior to the first dose of YK012 were allowed to be enrolled; Severe cardiac rhythm abnormalities; Grade III or higher congestive heart failure as defined by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) standards; Cardiac valve morphological abnormalities recorded by ECHO (≥ grade 2), those participants with grade 1 cardiac valve morphological abnormalities (such as mild regurgitation/stenosis) were allowed to be enrolled, but participants with moderate valve thickening were excluded; Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) below lower limit of the study center, or LVEF<50% if there is no lower limit at the research center; QTcF ≥ 470 msec (female) or ≥ 450 msec (male)； Implantable defibrillator; Participants with clinically uncontrollable hypertension (i.e., SBP≥160 mm Hg and/or DBP≥100 mm Hg).

6. Known allergy to monoclonal antibody drugs or immunoglobulin.
7. Participants who have undergone any major organ surgery or significant trauma within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of YK012, or those requiring elective surgeries during the study, and all AEs associated with surgery or significant trauma have not recovered before the first dose of the YK012.
8. Regular dose of systemic corticosteroids during the 4 weeks prior to initiation of study drug or anticipated need of corticosteroids exceeding prednisone 20 mg/day or equivalent during the trial, or any other systemic immunosuppressive therapy within 4 weeks prior to study entry.
9. The results of serological testing for the virus are clinically significant as judged by the investigator.
10. Participants with uncontrolled active infections currently require systemic anti-infective therapy, except for local treatment.
11. Participants with uncontrollable space effusion (e.g. pleural effusion, abdominal effusion, pericardial effusion, etc.), as judged by the Investigator.
12. Pregnant or lactating women.
13. Participants with mental disorders or poor protocol compliance.
14. Participants who have used live attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of YK012.
15. Participants with any other condition or circumstance that would, in the discretion of the Investigator, make the subject unsuitable for participation in this clinical study.
