• Backfill IL-2: Treatment with Lymphodepletion and KSQ-004EX + IL-2 · EXPERIMENTAL · Participants will receive KSQ-004EX and pre-medicated with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine to prevent the lymphodepletion of the chemotherapy.
• Phase 1 mLDC: Treatment with Modified Lymphodepletion and KSQ-004EX · EXPERIMENTAL · Participants will receive KSQ-004EX and pre-medicated with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine to prevent the lymphodepletion of the chemotherapy.
• Phase 1/Phase 2: Treatment with Lymphodepletion and KSQ-004EX · EXPERIMENTAL · Participants will receive KSQ-004EX and pre-medicated with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine to prevent the lymphodepletion of the chemotherapy.

Phase 1 is to find the recommended dose of KSQ-004EX to give to participants with advanced solid tumors. Phase 2 is to learn if KSQ-004EX at the recommended dose found in Phase1 can help to control advanced solid tumors. The safety and effects of KSQ-004EX will also be studied in both phases.
