Fertile male and female subjects of reproductive potential must agree to use effective contraception from the time of informed consent until 2 years after administration of the study drug.
- Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) include premenopausal women and those within 2 years post-menopause.
- A negative blood pregnancy test is required for all female participants of childbearing potential at screening.

- Presence of any uncontrolled active infection at the time of signing the ICF or within 4 weeks prior to apheresis that requires antibiotic, antiviral, or antifungal treatment.
- Positive virological or infectious disease markers, including:
- Hepatitis B virus (HBV): Subjects with positive HBsAg or HBcAb-positive at screening must have undetectable HBV DNA in peripheral blood to be eligible; otherwise, they should be excluded.
- Hepatitis C virus (HCV): Subjects with positive HCV antibodies and detectable HCV RNA should be excluded.
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody-positive subjects should be excluded.
- Cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA test-positive subjects should be excluded.
- Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA test-positive subjects should be excluded.
- Positive serological or non-specific antibodies for Treponema pallidum (syphilis).
- Clinically significant cardiovascular diseases, including any of the following:
- QTc interval ≥480 ms (Fridericia correction formula)
- New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or higher heart failure
- Unstable angina or acute myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to signing the ICF
- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<50%
- Poorly controlled hypertension (as determined by the investigator)
- Clinically significant arrhythmias or those requiring antiarrhythmic treatment, including:
- Persistent ventricular tachycardia
- Ventricular fibrillation
- Torsades de pointes
- Complete left bundle branch block
- History of severe hypersensitivity or allergy to any components of the study drug.
- Receipt of any investigational drug therapy or other systemic antitumor therapy within 4 weeks before apheresis (or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is longer, as determined by the investigator).
- Receipt of extensive radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior to signing the ICF, except for palliative radiotherapy for non-target lesions within 2 weeks before signing the ICF or as expected during the study.
- Unresolved toxicity from prior antitumor therapy that has not returned to Grade 1 or baseline levels at the time of signing the ICF, except for hair loss and pigmentation (per NCI-CTCAE v5.0).
- Requirement for systemic corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive therapy (≥10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) within 3 days prior to apheresis or during the study period, except for:
- Intranasal, inhaled, or topical steroids, or localized steroid injections (e.g., intra-articular injections)
- Systemic corticosteroids ≤10 mg/day prednisone (or equivalent physiological dose)
- Steroids as prophylaxis for allergic reactions (e.g., pre-medication before contrast-enhanced CT)
- Steroids used for symptomatic treatment of transfusion-related reactions
- Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to signing the ICF (excluding routine biopsy procedures) or planned major surgery during the study period.
- History of active tuberculosis infection within 1 year prior to signing the ICF, except for subjects with a history of tuberculosis more than 1 year ago, provided that the investigator determines there is no evidence of active tuberculosis.
- History of other primary malignancies within 5 years prior to signing the ICF, except for:
- Adequately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix

Interventions
Phase I: Patients will receive a single infusion of autologous CD19/CD22 dual CAR-T cells at one of three dose levels (0.3 × 10⁶ cells/kg, 1.0 × 10⁶ cells/kg, or 2.0 × 10⁶ cells/kg) following fludarabine (25-30mg/m2\*3d) and cyclophosphamide (250-300mg/m2\*3d) (FC) lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Phase II: Patients will receive autologous CD19/CD22 dual CAR-T cells at the RP2D following FC lymphodepleting chemotherapy.
