Brief summary: This clinical study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of CAR modified autologous T cells (CCT301-59) in subjects with recurrent or refractory solid tumors.

Detailed description: This is a single arm, open label, dose escalation clinical study to evaluate the safety and preliminary therapeutic efficacy of CCT301-59 T cells in adult subjects with relapsed and refractory stage IV metastatic solid tumors (soft tissue sarcoma, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, bladder cancer etc.).

The subjects with ROR2 (receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 2) positive biopsy will receive CCT301-59.

According to the 3+3 rules during the dose escalation stage to receive CCT301-59 treatment.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Voluntary to participate in the clinical study, subjects and their family members agree to sign the informed consent form and follow all trial procedures.
2. Male or female subjects 18-70 years of age.
3. Subjects are diagnosed as recurrent or refractory solid tumors (soft tissue sarcoma, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer and bladder cancer) with identified unresectable advanced or metastatic tumors by radiology and histology or cytology, progression after the first line or above treatment, or intolerance to standard treatment.
4. At least one measurable lesion in accordance with RECIST 1.1, the long diameter of non-lymph node lesions ≥10mm (millimeter) according to CT (computerized tomography) scan-sectional image, or the short diameter of lymph node lesions ≥15mm; the longest axis of the measurable lesion ≥10 mm in CT scan (CT scan layer ≤ 5mm); FDG PET (fluorodeoxyglucose -positron emission tomography) of the measurable lesion \> 3 SUV (standardized uptake values).
5. Subjects with ROR2 positive tumor tissue: the percentage of ROR2 positive staining cells in tumor cells detected by immunohistochemistry or RNA (Ribonucleic acid) in situ hybridization is ≥ 50%. The samples could be used within one year , otherwise the sample will be re-collected for biopsy.
6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) score is 0 to 1.
7. Expected survival will be ≥ 12 weeks.
