11. Clinically significant cardiac abnormalities, including but not limited to:

1)Uncontrolled congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III or IV heart failure, see Appendix 3); 2)Myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass grafting or unstable angina within 6 months prior to apheresis; 3)History of clinically significant uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmias such as ventricular arrhythmias; 4)History of severe non-ischemic cardiomyopathy; 5)Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 50%, diagnosed by echocardiography, without clinically significant ECG abnormalities; 6)Other heart disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, may jeopardize the health of the participant when participating in this clinical trial.

12.Participants with known or suspected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with a forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) < 50% of the predicted normal value of spirometry, or other lung disease that, in the judgment of the investigator, significantly affects lung function or affects the safety of the participant, such as asthma, interstitial lung disease, diffuse lung disease, pulmonary infection, pulmonary embolism, etc.

14.Participant has a history of stroke or seizure within 6 months prior to the screening period.

15.Has had major surgery before screening, or is planned to undergo major surgery after the trial treatment (excluding cataract and other surgery under local anesthesia). The investigator must discuss with the sponsor to determine whether a surgery is major surgery before enrolling the participant in the trial.

16.The participant has not recovered to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0 = Grade 1 from toxicities attributable to previous treatments, except for alopecia, peripheral neuropathy, and other events that, in the judgment of the investigator, are unlikely to result in lymphodepletion or cumulative toxicities of CT071 treatment; 17.Other conditions considered inappropriate for participation in this clinical trial by the investigator.
