About This Sarcoma Study in Memphis

RAD3CAR is a phase I study designed to evaluatethe safety of B7-H3-CAR T cells and lymphodepletion in combination with hypofractionated radiation therapy. Primary objective: \- To evaluate the safety of B7-H3-CAR T cell therapy after priming with hypofractionated radiation therapy (HFRT) and lymphodepleting chemotherapy in patients ≤ 21 years of age with relapsed/refractory B7-H3+ sarcomas. Secondary objectives: * To describe the antitumor activity of B7-H3-CAR T cells in combination with HFRT * To determine if B7-H3-CAR T cells traffic to tumor sites after combination treatment with HFRT

Sponsor: St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Presence of intracranial or spinal cord disease
Known underlying medical condition(s) for which, in the investigator's opinion, participation in this trial would not be in the best interest of the participant (e.g., compromises the health of the subject) or that could prevent, limit, or confound protocol assessments
