10. Fertility status: female patients of childbearing age or male patients whose sexual partners are females of childbearing age are willing to take effective contraceptive measures from the signing of the informed consent form to 6 months after the last cell infusion (females of childbearing age include premenopausal women and premenopausal women). Women within 2 years after menopause).
11. The subject must sign and date a written informed consent form.
12. The subject must be willing and able to comply with the predetermined treatment plan, laboratory examination, follow-up and other research requirements.

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects who meet any of the following conditions cannot be selected for this study;

1. Women during pregnancy and lactation.

Syphilis antibody is positive; Epstein-Barr virus DNA quantitative\> 500 copies; Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection (IgM positive).
3. Severe infections that are active or poorly clinically controlled.
4. At present, there is a heart disease requiring treatment or a poorly controlled hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure \>90 mmHg after treatment with standardized antihypertensive drugs).
5. The presence of any of the following cardiac clinical symptoms or diseases:

   1. Unstable angina;
   2. Myocardial infarction occurred within 1 year;
   3. ECG at rest QTc\>450ms (male) or QTc\>470ms (female);
   4. The resting state ECG examination found abnormalities of important clinical significance (such as abnormal heart rate, conduction, morphological characteristics, etc.) or complete left bundle branch block or third-degree heart block or second-degree heart block or PR Interval\> 250ms;
   5. There are factors that increase the risk of QTc prolongation and abnormal heart rate, such as heart failure, hypokalemia, congenital long QT syndrome, family history of long QT syndrome, or sudden death of unexplained family members under 40 years old, or prolonged periods Period concomitant medication.
6. Abnormal blood coagulation function (INR\>1.5×ULN), bleeding tendency or receiving thrombolysis or conventional anticoagulation therapy (such as warfarin or heparin), patients need long-term antiplatelet therapy (aspirin, dose\> 300mg/day; Clopidogrel, dose\>75mg/day).
7. Subjects who need to use corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive drugs for systemic therapy during the treatment period.
8. Before treatment, blood oxygen saturation ≤95% (referring to pulse oxygen detection).
9. Have received systemic steroids equivalent to \>15 mg/day of prednisone within 2 weeks before apheresis, except for inhaled steroids.
10. Before the pretreatment of chemotherapy for removing lymphocytes, the subject developed a new arrhythmia, including but not limited to arrhythmia that cannot be controlled with drugs, hypotension that requires vasopressor, bacteria, fungi, or intravenous antibiotics that require intravenous antibiotics. Viral infection. Subjects who use test antibiotics to prevent infection are up to the investigator to determine whether participants can continue to participate in the test.
11. Known past or current hepatic encephalopathy requiring treatment; patients with current or history of central nervous system disease, such as epileptic seizures, cerebral ischemia/hemorrhage, dementia, cerebellar disease or any associated central nervous system involvement Autoimmune disease; central nervous system metastasis or meningeal metastasis with clinical symptoms, or other evidence that the patient's central nervous system metastasis or meningeal metastasis has not been controlled, and the investigator judged that it is not suitable for inclusion in the group.
