   • Chemotherapy-refractory disease, defined as one of more of the following:

     • No response to last line of therapy. i. Progressive disease (PD) as best response to most recent therapy regimen. ii. Stable disease (SD) as best response to most recent therapy with duration no longer than 6 month from last dose of therapy

     • Refractory post-autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) or allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

       i. Disease progression or relapsed less than or equal to 12 months of ASCT /allo-HSCT (must have biopsy proven recurrence in relapsed individuals).

   ii. If salvage therapy is given post-ASCT, the individual must have had no response to or relapsed after the last line of therapy Any BM relapse after autologous/allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT).

   • Individuals must have received two systemic lines of therapy

     • anti-cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20) monoclonal antibody unless investigator determines that tumor is CD20-negative and
     • an anthracycline containing chemotherapy regimen

5. Relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) with CD19-positive Diagnosis of CLL that meets 2008 the International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IWCLL) diagnostic criteria, must have at least one of the following criteria.

   • Patients with Del(17p) / tumour suppressor p53 (TP53) mutation
   • CLL relapsed or refractory after 2 or more lines of therapy, Relapsed is defined as evidence of disease progression after a period of 6 months or more following an initial CR or PR.

   Refractory disease is defined as failure to achieve a response after 6 cycles of induction chemotherapy or having disease progression within 6 months of the last treatment.

6. At least one measurable lesion, defined as at least 1 lymph node >1.5 cm in the longest diameter, per revised IWG Response Criteria.
7. Eastern cooperative oncology group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2.

8. Adequate organ function defined as:

   • Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤3 upper limit of normal (ULN)
   • Total bilirubin ≤ 2 ULN, except in individuals with Gilbert's syndrome; Note: Patients with Gilbert's syndrome that bilirubin ≤ 3 ULN and direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5 ULN will be eligible.
   • A serum creatinine≤ 1.5 ULN or Creatine removal rate ≥ 60mL/min（Cockcroft and Gault）
   • Must have a minimum level of pulmonary reserve as ≤ Grade 1 dyspnea and oxygen saturation > 91% on room air.
   • International normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 ULN and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 ULN.
9. Women of child-bearing potential and all male participants must use highly effective methods of contraception for a period of 1 year after the CNCT19 infusion.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Active central nervous system (CNS) involvement by malignancy.
2. Patients with systemic vasculitis (such as Wegener granulomatosis, nodular polyarteritis, systemic lupus erythematosus) and active or uncontrolled autoimmune disease (such as autoimmune hemolytic anemia, etc.)
3. Patients who are positive for any of HIV antibody, TP antibody, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody.
4. During the first four weeks of screening, the patient underwent major surgery which was assessed by the investigator as unsuitable for enrollment;

5. The patient's heart fits any of the following conditions:

   Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) ≤45%; III/IV congestive heart failure (NYHA); Severe arrhythmia (except for Atrial fibrillation, Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia); corrected QT interval (QTc)≥450ms (male)or QTc≥470ms (female)（QTc using Bazett's(QTcB)=QT/RR^0.5）; Myocardial infarction or Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery, heart stent surgery.

   Other heart diseases that have been judged by the investigator to be unsuitable for receiving cell therapy.

6. Patients with a history of epilepsy or other active central nervous system diseases.
7. Has had treat with live vaccine within 6 weeks prior to screening；
