Brief summary

This study will evaluate the safety of PD-1 knockout EBV-CTL cells in treating EBV (Epstein-Barr virus) positive advanced stage malignancies. Blood samples will also be collected for research purposes.

Detailed description

This is a study of CRISPR-Cas9 mediated PD-1 knockout-T cells from autologous origin. Patients are assigned to receive 4 circles of cell therapy. The safety and clinical response are evaluated. Biomarkers and immunological markers are also monitored.

Interventions

DRUGFludarabine

To modify immune micro-environment
