What will be asked of you

The study involves blood draws, blood tests, biopsies, procedures, imaging/scanning and follow -up visits. Participation involves three days of treatment that will prepare your body to accept the study treatment cells better. You will then return to the clinic for one day of study cell treatment. After treatment, you will have clinic visits for checkup tests and assessment including lab tests and imaging of your tumor. You will continue follow up visits based on how well you have responded to the study treatment.
