IHC testing of a cell block from cytology (e.g., ascitic fluid) is acceptable if approved by the study pathologist. If adequate archival tissue is not available at screening, a fresh tumor biopsy should be obtained
• Stage IV disease with gross peritoneal carcinomatosis on imaging and/or microscopic peritoneal involvement by cytology or noted during diagnostic laparoscopy

• Patients with Her2 positive disease must have received ≥1 line of anti-Her2 based therapy
• At least 1 measurable or evaluable lesion per RECIST 1.1. Screening imaging must be obtained within 6 weeks of signing the informed consent form
• Completion of systemic therapy at least 7 days before leukapheresis; o Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy must be completed at least 14 days before leukapheresis
• Lab requirements (hematology):; Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.0 K/mcL; Hemoglobin ≥9 gm/dL; Platelet count ≥75 K/mcL; Blood product transfusion or growth factor support cannot occur within 7 days of testing
• Lab requirements (serum chemistry):; Bilirubin ≤1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN); Serum alanine aminotransferase and serum aspartate aminotransferase (ALT/AST) level ≤3× ULN; Calculated clearance of ≥50 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault equation
• Negative screen for infectious disease markers, including hepatitis B core antibody, hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C antibody, HIV 1-2 antibody, HTLV antibody and syphilis antibody; o Note: Patients with a history of hepatitis B virus infection are eligible if the hepatitis B viral load is undetectable. Patients with a history of hepatitis C virus infection who were treated for hepatitis C and cured are eligible if the hepatitis C viral load is undetectable
• Serum pregnancy test with negative result at screening and preconditioning and must be willing to use effective and reliable contraception for at least 12 months after T cell infusion (for female participants of childbearing age)
• Resolution of all acute toxic effects of any previous therapeutic or palliative chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgical procedures to grade ≤1 (CTCAE v5.0), except for neuropathy and alopecia
• Life expectancy of ≥4 months
• ECOG performance status of 0-1
• At least 1 measurable or evaluable lesion per RECIST 1.1. Screening imaging must be obtained within 4 weeks before the date of lymphodepletion
• Completion of systemic therapy at least 14 days before lymphodepleting chemotherapy; o Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy must be completed at least 28 days before lymphodepleting chemotherapy
• Lab requirements (hematology):; Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 K/mcL; Hemoglobin ≥8 gm/dL; Platelet count ≥75 K/mcL
• Lab requirements (serum chemistry):; Bilirubin ≤1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN); Serum alanine aminotransferase and serum aspartate aminotransferase (ALT/AST) level ≤3× ULN; Calculated clearance of ≥50 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault equation
• Serum pregnancy test with negative result within 7 days of planned lymphodepletion date and must be willing to use effective and reliable contraception for at least 12 months after T cell infusion (for female participants of childbearing age)
• Resolution of all acute toxic effects of any previous therapeutic or palliative chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgical procedures to grade ≤1 (CTCAE v5.0), except for neuropathy and alopecia; Participant Exclusion Criteria

• HIV, active hepatitis C virus, or active hepatitis B virus infection, as determined by quantitative PCR (patients who have undergone negative testing prior to leukapheresis do not require repeat testing)
• Receiving therapy for concurrent active malignancy; Note: Patients receiving treatment for in situ skin malignancies are not excluded; Patients with any malignancy diagnosed \>3 years before that is thought to be curatively treated and/or has a low risk of recurrence are eligible. Patients may continue to receive adjuvant therapy at the time of study enrollment (e.g., adjuvant hormonal therapy for curatively treated breast cancer)
• Previous receipt of CAR T cell therapy or any other cellular therapy
• Previous mesothelin-directed therapy Any major abdominal surgery (laparotomy with resection of gastrointestinal tract or organ resection) that is completed \<28 days before study enrollment. Patients who have undergone diagnostic laparoscopy can be included in the study without regard to timing
• Untreated or active central nervous system (CNS) metastases (progressing or requiring anticonvulsants or corticosteroids for symptomatic control). Patients with a history of treated CNS metastases are eligible if all of the following criteria are met:; Radiographic demonstration of improvement upon completion of CNS-directed therapy and no evidence of interim progression between completion of CNS-directed therapy and the screening radiographic study; Completion of radiotherapy ≥4 weeks before the screening radiographic study
• Receiving daily systemic corticosteroids ≥10 mg of prednisone daily or equivalent or receiving immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory treatment
• Active interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis or a history of interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis requiring treatment with systemic steroids
• Known active infection requiring antibiotic treatment 7 days before leukapheresis; o Note: Treatment can be delayed at the discretion of the treating physician to allow the patient to recover from the infection
• Receipt of live, attenuated vaccine within 8 weeks before the planned lymphodepleting chemotherapy date
• Known hematologic malignancy requiring treatment in the preceding 5 years or a known history of lymphoid malignancy
• Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment within 1 year before leukapheresis (with the use of disease-modifying agents, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressive drugs); o Note: Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is not considered a form of systemic treatment and is allowed
• Any other medical condition, e.g. fever \>38.0 degrees C, that, in the opinion of the PI, may interfere with the subject's participation in or compliance with the study
• Any of the following cardiac conditions:; New York Heart Association stage III or IV congestive heart failure; Myocardial infarction ≤6 months before enrollment; History of myocarditis; Serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, unstable angina, or uncontrolled infection; Left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%
• Pregnant or lactating
