10. Female subjects must meet the following criteria to be considered for enrollment: a) Be of non-childbearing potential, defined as: having undergone hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy, or having had bilateral tubal ligation, or being postmenopausal (complete cessation of menstruation for ≥1 year); b) Be of childbearing potential, but have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening, and agree to use medically accepted contraceptive measures (such as intrauterine device, oral contraceptives, or condoms) before enrollment and during the study, until 1 year after the last study drug administration.
11. Male subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use barrier contraception or complete abstinence until 1 year after the last study drug administration.
12. Have sufficient venous access for apheresis or intravenous blood draw, and no contraindications for leukapheresis.
13. For subjects who have received daratumumab or other CD38 - targeted therapies, the washout period for CD38 monoclonal antibody should be at least 3 months before the reinfusion treatment.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Having other malignancies within 3 years prior to screening, with the exception of adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ, papillary thyroid carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, localized prostate cancer after radical surgery, and ductal carcinoma in situ after radical surgery.
2. Positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb), with detectable HBV-DNA levels above the lower limit of detection in peripheral blood; positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies with detectable HCV-RNA levels above the lower limit of detection; positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibodies; positive for cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA; positive for EBV-DNA; positive for syphilis serology.
3. A history of severe allergic reactions \[defined as allergic reactions of grade 2 or higher, with any of the following clinical manifestations: airway obstruction (rhinorrhea, cough, wheezing, dyspnea), tachycardia, hypotension, arrhythmia, gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting), urinary or fecal incontinence, laryngeal edema, bronchial spasm, cyanosis, shock, respiratory or cardiac arrest\] or known allergy to any active ingredient, excipient, or murine product or xenoprotein contained in the study drug (including the lymphodepletion regimen).
4. Severe cardiac disease, including but not limited to severe arrhythmias, unstable angina, large myocardial infarction, New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV heart failure, refractory hypertension (defined as failure to achieve target blood pressure despite the use of a reasonable and tolerable regimen of ≥3 antihypertensive medications \[including diuretics\] for \>1 month or requiring ≥4 antihypertensive medications for effective blood pressure control).
5. History of solid organ transplant or planned solid organ transplant (excluding allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant).
6. Acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) that is deemed uncontrollable by the investigator.
7. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant within 6 months prior to screening.
8. Active autoimmune or inflammatory disease (e.g., Guillain-Barré syndrome \[GBS\], amyotrophic lateral sclerosis \[ALS\]) or clinically significant active cerebrovascular disease (e.g., cerebral edema, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome \[PRES\]).
9. Presence of a tumor emergency (e.g., spinal cord compression, bowel obstruction, leukostasis, tumor lysis syndrome) requiring urgent treatment prior to screening or infusion.
10. Presence of uncontrollable bacterial, fungal, viral, or other infections requiring antibiotic therapy.
11. Planned to undergo major surgery within 4 weeks prior to lymphodepletion or during the study period, or surgical wounds not fully healed prior to enrollment.
12. Presence of severe psychiatric disorders.
13. Within 1 week prior to planned PBMC collection, receiving systemic corticosteroids or immunosuppressive agents that are deemed by the investigator to affect cell preparation. a) Systemic corticosteroids: subjects receiving systemic corticosteroid therapy within 1 week prior to planned PBMC collection and deemed by the investigator to require long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy during the treatment period (excluding inhaled or topical use); b) Immunosuppressive agents: subjects receiving immunosuppressive agents within 1 week prior to planned PBMC collection.
