* Age ≤21 years old
* B7-H3+ solid tumor with measurable disease; B7-H3 expression will be evaluated by standard immunohistochemistry (IHC) using a previously obtained biopsy; a tumor is considered B7-H3 positive with an H-score ≥100
* Estimated life expectancy of \>12 weeks
* Karnofsky or Lansky (age-dependent) performance score ≥50
* For females of child bearing age:

Inclusion criteria

Treatment eligibility

Exclusion criteria

* Known primary immunodeficiency
* History of HIV infection
* Severe, uncontrolled intercurrent bacterial, viral or fungal infection
