A checkpoint inhibitor is not required for patients with actionable mutations.

• Subjects who are intolerant to required prior therapies must have previously received at least one systemic therapy that was deemed ineffective by the treating physician.
• At screening, must have tissue available for NY-ESO-1 testing (if not previously performed) or be willing and able to undergo a fresh tissue biopsy.
• HLA-A\*0201 (HLA-A2.1) positivity by molecular subtyping (blood test or buccal swab, historical documentation acceptable).
• Age ≥ 18 years old.
• Life expectancy greater than 3 months assessed by a study physician.
• Have been informed of other treatment options.
• A minimum of one measurable lesion defined as meeting the criteria for measurable disease according RECIST1.1 criteria.
• No restriction based on prior treatments provided they have discontinued therapy at least 4 weeks prior to starting study treatment. Lesions amenable to radiotherapy or palliative radiotherapy (e.g.- bone metastases or metastases causing nerve impingement) should be treated \> 4 weeks prior to enrollment and patients must be fully recovered from the effects of radiation prior to receiving the investigational agent and that patients must not receive radiation while enrolled on this study.
• Patients must have received prior anti-cancer treatment(s) or an investigational product(s) within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to the first dose of study treatment(s) AND unresolved or unstable serious toxic side-effects of prior chemotherapy/treatment must have recovered to Grade 1 per CTCAE (v5.0)
• Must have adequate venous access for apheresis and must be willing to and able to go through the procedure.
• Women of childbearing potential must agree to use effective methods of birth control for the duration of the study and 6 to 12 months after until persistence of the study drug is no longer detected in the peripheral blood. Methods for acceptable birth control include: condoms, diaphragm or cervical cap with spermicide, intrauterine device, and hormonal contraception. It is recommended that a combination of two methods be used.
• ECOG performance status ≤1 (Karnofsky ≥80%, see Appendix A).
• Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:
• leukocytes ≥3,000/mcL
• absolute neutrophil count ≥1,000/mcL
• platelets ≥100,000/mcL
• total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN (institutional upper limit of normal)
• AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) ≤2.5 × ULN (institutional upper limit of normal)
• creatinine ≤2 × ULN (institutional upper limit of normal) OR
• creatinine clearance ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for patients with creatinine levels \> 2 × ULN
• Patient must understand the investigational nature of this study and be willing to sign a written informed consent form prior to receiving any study related procedure.
• Participant must agree to and arrange for a caregiver (age ≥ 18 years old) available 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week and arrange for lodging within 45 minutes-drive to UChicago and transportation for a period of time after discharge from the hospital. The exact amount of time will depend on the individual status as determined by the treating physician.

Exclusion criteria

• Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents.
• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to agents used in the study.
• Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure with New York Heart Association class III or IV disease, patients with a LVEF \< 45%, a myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to study entry or a history of myocarditis, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
• Patients with active autoimmune disease requiring doses of corticosteroids of ≥ 10 mg/day of prednisone (or its equivalent) or other immunosuppressive treatments.
• History of inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, or other chronic gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhea or bleeding, or current acute colitis of any origin.
• Potential requirement for systemic corticosteroids or concurrent immunosuppressive drugs based on prior history or received systemic steroids within the last 4 weeks prior to enrollment (inhaled or topical steroids at standard doses or isolated use of steroids as premedication for medical procedures to minimize allergic reaction \[e.g. CT scan dye\] are allowed). Known cases of clinically active brain metastases (brain MRI as clinically indicated) because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events. Prior evidence of brain metastasis successfully treated with surgery or radiation therapy will not be exclusion for participation as long as they are deemed under control at the time of study enrollment.
• Dementia or significantly altered mental status that would prohibit the understanding or rendering of informed consent and compliance with the requirements of this protocol.

• Patients with pulmonary function test abnormalities as evidenced by a FEV1/FVC\<70% of predicted for normality will be excluded.
• Patients with baseline O2 saturation \<90% on room air.
• Patients with history of pneumonitis and/or interstitial lung disease.
