  1. Complete blood count (CBC) test \[the following criteria should be met within 24 hours prior to apheresis, and supportive treatment such as transfusion, platelet transfusion, cell growth factor (except recombinant erythropoietin) should be avoided within 7 days prior to detection\]: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1×10\^9 /L; hemoglobin ≥70 g/L.; platelets ≥50×10\^9 /L; absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) ≥0.3×10\^9 /L;

* The subjects must be willing to provide valid initial diagnostic evidence and undergo bone marrow examinations before and after treatment.
* Women of childbearing age and all male patients must consent to use a effective contraception for at least 12 months after Meta10-BCMA infusion and until two consecutive PCR tests show no more CAR T cells in vivo；
* The subjects should have measurable disease based on at least one of the following parameters:

  1. The proportion of primitive naive or monoclonal plasma cells ≥ 5% by bone marrow cytology, bone marrow biopsy histology or flow cytometry;
  2. Serum monoclonal protein (M-protein) level: M protein ≥10 g/L for IgG type, M protein ≥5g/L for IgA, IgD, IgM, and IgE type;
  3. Urine M protein level ≥200 mg/24 hours;
  4. Light chain multiple myeloma without measurable lesions in serum or urine: the affected serum free light chain ≥100 mg/L with abnormal serum κ/λ free light chain ratio;
  5. There are measurable extramedullary plasmacytoma lesions.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Treatment with the following therapies within the specified period:

  1. Any hematopoietic stem cell transplant(HSCT) within 2 months prior to the start of infusion of Meta10-BCMA, or any immunosuppressive therapy due to graft-versus-host disease after HSCT within the screening period;
  2. Any major surgery within 4 weeks prior to screening;
  3. Any radiotherapy 2 weeks prior to screening;
  4. Any intrathecal treatment within 1 week prior to the start of infusion of Meta10-BCMA;
  5. Any live vaccination within 4 weeks prior to the start of infusion of Meta10-BCMA and/or plan to receive live vaccines after participation in the trial;
  6. Any clinical trial therapy within 4 weeks prior to the start of infusion of Meta10-BCMA, or ongoing participation in other clinical trials.
* Following disease or surgical history:

  1. ≥ grade 2 arrhythmia according to NCI CTCAE 5.0 grade or QTc\> 450 ms (male), QTc\> 470ms (female) (QTc is calculated using Fridericia correction formula QTc = QT / RR0.33) subjects with a history of Torsades de pointes ventricular tachycardia or congenital prolonged QT syndrome;
  2. Subjects with any of the following diseases within 12 months before the screening: including but not limited to unstable angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure and severe arrhythmia, coronary artery bypass grafting or peripheral artery bypass grafting surgery, cerebrovascular events (including transient ischemic attacks), etc.;
  3. Uncontrollable and active infections during the screening period regarded by the investigators;
