Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Allogeneic γδT cell immunotherapy
Patients will receive 2 cycles of ex-vivo expanded allogeneic γδT cells treatments, at 14 days' intervals, each cycle has 2 infusions. Ex-vivo expanded γδT cells are transfused to patients in a dosage escalated manner (Dose escalation, 1×107, 3×107, 9×107 per kg of body weight).
