Brief summary: This is a single-center, double-arm, open-label study. this study plans to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD70-targeting CAR-T cells in the treatment of CD70-positive advanced/metastatic Gynecologic Cancer, and obtain recommended doses and infusion patterns.

Detailed description: The research designs to follow 2 groups：Intravenous infusion group and Intraperitoneal injection group；each group sets up 2 phases,the first phase is dose discovery phase to obtain recommended doses,the second phase is dose expansion phase to verify the safety in the recommended doses. In the discovery phase,each group puts up 4 dose groups, adopting a dose-escalating 3+3 design, and plan to recruit about 12 subjects with CD70-positive advanced/metastatic solid tumors.In the dose expansion phase,each group will choose one or two dose groups to verify the safety and efficacy at this dose,and plan to recruit about 6 subjects in each dose group.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Age ≥18 years old;

10. The subject agrees to use a reliable and effective contraceptive method for contraception (excluding safe period contraception) within 1 year from signing the informed consent to receiving the CAR T cell infusion;
11. The subject or his/her guardian agrees to participate in the clinical trial and signs the ICF, indicating that he/she understands the purpose and procedure of the clinical trial and is willing to participate in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Received anti-CD70 drug therapy before screening;
2. Active/symptomatic central nervous system metastasis or meningeal metastasis at the time of screening; Treated subjects with brain metastases can only be enrolled if no radiographically demonstrated progression is demonstrated ≥4 weeks after the end of treatment.
3. Received any of the following treatments prior to screening:

   2. Received anti-tumor therapy such as chemotherapy or targeted therapy within 2 weeks of preapheresis or at least 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter); Received systemic radiation within 4 weeks and local radiation within 2 weeks; Or received radioactive drugs (strontium, samarium) within 8 weeks prior to treatment.
   3. Systemic corticosteroid therapy with doses greater than 10mg/ day of prednisone (or equivalent doses of other corticosteroids) within 2 weeks of preapheresis (in the absence of active autoimmune disease, inhaled or topical steroid use and adrenocortical replacement with doses greater than 10mg/ day of prednisone efficacy dose are permitted);
   4. Received live attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to screening;
4. There is an active or uncontrolled infection requiring systemic treatment within 1 week prior to screening;
