In this Treatment Arm A, all subjects will receive a single flat dose of 7x10\\[6\\] huCART19-IL18-eDHFR cells (Dose Level 1; DL1). Additional treatment arms may also be introduced in the future, via subsequent amendment(s).\n\nCo-expression of eDHFR within huCART19-IL18 cells will allow the trafficking of the transduced CAR T cells to be visualized by PET/CT imaging using an investigational radiolabeled imaging agent \\[18F\\]Fluoropropyl-Trimethoprim (also known as \\[18F\\]FP-TMP). The feasibility of using \\[18F\\]FP-TMP PET/CT imaging to detect and measure the eDHFR-expressing CAR T cells will be investigated, as well as its ability to provide insight into CAR T cell pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and persistence.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
