Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

1. Choose appropriate patients with advanced lung or other cancers,with written consent for this study; 2. Perform biopsy to determine the expression of HER2, Mesothelin, Lewis-Y, PSCA, MUC1, GPC3, AXL, EGFR, Claudin18.2, or B7-H3 of the tumor by western blotting or IHC; 3. Collect blood from the patients and isolate mononuclear cells, activate the T cells and transfect the T cells with GPC3, Mesothelin, Claudin18.2, GUCY2C, B7-H3, PSCA, PSMA, MUC1, TGFβ, HER2, Lewis-Y, AXL, or EGFR targeting CAR, amplify the transfected T cells as needed, test the quality and killing activity of the CAR-T cells and then transfer them back the patients via systemic or local injections, and follow up closely to collect related results as needed; 4. To enhance the killing capability, CD4+ T cells are genetically engineered to express TGFβ-CAR and secret IL7/CCL19 and/or SCFVs against PD1/CTLA4/Tigit; CD8+T cells are constructed to express GPC3/Mesothelin/Claudin18.2/GUCY2C/B7-H3/PSCA/PSMA/MUC1/TGFβ/HER2/Lewis-Y/AXL/EGFR -DAP10-CAR with knockdown of PD1/HPK1; 5. Other cancers with these cell surface antigen expressions are also recruited if needed; 6. Evaluate the clinical results as needed.

Protocol

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.

Design Details

30 patients to be enrolled

Total number of participants that the clinical trial aims to recruit.

Treatment Study

These studies test new ways to treat a disease, condition, or health issue. The goal is to see if a new drug, therapy, or approach works better or has fewer side effects than existing options.

Eligibility

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria: person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Conditions

Criteria

Any sex

Biological sex of participants that are eligible to enroll.

From 18 to 75 Years

Range of ages for which participants are eligible to join.

Healthy volunteers not allowed

If individuals who are healthy and do not have the condition being studied can participate.

Informed consent explained to, understood by and signed by patient/guardian. Patient/guardian given copy of informed consent. \- Exclusion Criteria: 1. Had accepted gene therapy before; 2. Severe virus infection such as HBV,HCV,HIV,et al; 3. Known HIV positivity; 4. Active infectious disease related to bacteria, virus,fungi,et al; 5. Other severe diseases that the investigators consider not appropriate; 6. Pregnant or lactating women; 7. Systemic steroid treatment (greater than or equal to 0.5 mg prednisone equivalent/kg/day); 8. Other conditions that the investigators consider not appropriate. -
