Brief Summary

The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of infusion of autologous tumor associated antigen-specific engineered immune effector cells (EIE).

Detailed Description

Malignant tumor is still a major challenge in medicine and requires technology breakthrough, and its mortality rate is the highest among all diseases. World Health Organization and the American Cancer Association expect about 12 million new cancer patients worldwide each year, with about 8 million cancer deaths (20 thousand cancer deaths per day). At present, more than 20 million people are suffering from cancer, and this figure will increase to 75 million in 2030. In Asia, the incidence of cancer is expected to rise by 60% in 2020, and the number of cancer related deaths will reach 7 million annually in 2030. The incidence of lung, Intestine, breast, prostate and gastric cancer is high, and lung, Intestine, breast and liver cancer are the main causes of cancer related deaths in Asia.

Adoptive immunotherapy based on cytotoxic T lymphocytes reactive with specific antigens has proven to be effective. In vitro induction of tumor antigen-specific immune cells and engineering of target specific immune cells have great potential for cancer eradication. The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ex vivo manipulated EIE cells including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified immune cells in treating cancer. The primary study objectives are to evaluate the safety of the investigational product, autologous EIE cells, to subjects by intravenous and intratumoral injection. The secondary study objectives are (1) to evaluate the success rate of generating autologous EIE cells ex vivo, and (2) to determine the anti-cancer efficacy of the EIE cells.

2. Previous experience of other cell therapy. 3. Participation in any other cell therapy protocols within one year. 4. Current or recent treatment (within the 28-day period prior to Day 0) with another investigational drug.

5. Minor surgical procedures within 2 days prior to Day 0 (including central venous access device placement for chemotherapy administration, tumor biopsies, needle aspirations).

6. Pregnant or lactating females. 7. Unable to comply with the trial related requirement. 8. Inadequate bone marrow function:
