Exclusion Criteria:
1. Active CNS metastases, or involvement of the CNS, unless there is a history of at least 3 months of sustained remission of treated disease and no change in steroid dose for at least 28 days prior to study entry.
2. Known past or current malignancy other than inclusion diagnosis, except for:
1. Cervical carcinoma of stage 1B or less
2. Noninvasive basal cell or squamous cell skin carcinoma
3. Noninvasive, superficial bladder cancer
4. Prostate cancer with a current PSA level \< 0.1 ng/mL

6. Enrollment of other malignancies is allowed at the investigator's discretion.
3. Known clinically significant cardiac disease, including:
1. Onset of unstable angina pectoris within 6 months of signing the informed consent form
2. Acute myocardial infarction within 6 months of signing the informed consent form
3. Congestive heart failure (grade II or III or IV as classified by the New York Heart Association)
4. Impaired cardiac function (LVEF \< 50%) as assessed by echocardiogram or MUGA scan
5. Subjects with uncontrolled arrhythmia or hypertension
6. Subjects with cardiac valvular disease
4. Unresolved toxicities from prior anticancer therapy, defined as having not resolved per the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, version 5.0) to Grade ≤ 1, or to the levels dictated in the inclusion/exclusion criteria with the exception of alopecia, vitiligo, and laboratory test values that otherwise meet inclusion criteria.
5. Ongoing uncontrolled systemic infections requiring antibiotic, anti-fungal, or anti-viral therapy.
6. Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, based on laboratory testing performed during screening period. HBV-infected subjects are considered eligible if their viral load is below the institutional limit of quantification (LOQ) and the subject is on stable viral suppressive therapy. HCV infected subjects are considered eligible if they have completed curative antiviral treatment and their HCV RNA viral load is below the institutional LOQ
7. Live vaccine administration planned or required during the treatment period of the trial.
8. History of sensitivity or intolerance to cyclophosphamide or fludarabine.
9. Female subjects of childbearing potential, unable or unwilling to use appropriate contraception (e.g., any combination of condom, diaphragm, intrauterine devices \[IUDs\], and hormonal oral contraceptives or male partner vasectomy) for the duration of the trial and for 6 months following the last dose of AB-201.
Male subjects must be sterile (biologically or surgically) or commit to the use of a highly effective method of contraception (any approved combination of physical or chemical methods) until at least 6 months following administration of the last AB-201 dose.)
10. Currently pregnant or lactating (breast feeding must not be started within 6 months of the last dose of AB 201).
11. Any other considerations that might interfere with the assessment of safety or efficacy, or that the investigator deems inappropriate for inclusion.

14. Severe disease progression or health deterioration within 2 weeks prior to lymphodepletion regimen that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could impair the ability of the subject to receive study treatment or comply with study requirements.
15. Subjects who have undergone organ transplantation
16. Subjects with a history of receiving one or more immune cell therapy.
