Females of childbearing potential have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test because of the potentially dangerous/unknown effects on the fetus. Females who have undergone hysterectomy or who have been postmenopausal for at least 2 years are not considered to be of childbearing potential. 9. Contraception: Subjects of child-bearing or child-fathering potential must be willing to practice highly effective birth control from the time of enrollment on this study and for the entire study period which is 12 months after receiving the CAR T cell infusion. 10. Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document. Patients must have signed informed consent to participate in the trial. 11. Adequate vital sign criterion with acceptable numerical ranges of: * Systolic Blood Pressure (mmHg) ≥ 100 and ≤ 150 * Diastolic Blood pressure (mmHg) ≥ 60 and ≤ 90 * To ensure subject safety and stability, any subject who is noted to have a BP \> 150/90 mm Hg should be stable on anti-hypertensive medications with repeated BP ≤150/90 for at least one month prior to enrollment in the study * Heart Rate ≥ 60 and ≤ 100 bpm * Oral Temperature ≤ 37.7 C/afebrile * Respiratory rate ≥ 12 and ≤ 20bpm Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) or MOG antibody associated disease (MOGAD). 2. Prior treatment with any investigational agent within 3 months, or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer. Agents authorized by the FDA for prevention or treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are not considered investigational. 3. Initiation of any DMT between the completion of apheresis and start of lymphodepletion (LD) chemotherapy. The use of methylprednisolone for bridging therapy between apheresis and start of LD chemotherapy will be allowed. 4. History of CNS or spinal cord tumor, metabolic or infectious cause of myelopathy, genetically inherited progressive CNS disorder, sarcoidosis or non-MS progressive neurologic condition affecting ability to perform study assessments. 5. History of cytopenia consistent with the diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). 6. History of sickle cell anemia or other hemoglobinopathy. 7. Coagulation abnormalities defined by: international normalized ratio (INR) \> 1.5, prothrombin time (PT) \> 14 seconds, partial thromboplastin time (PTT) \> 45 seconds to the exclusion criteria. Patients with positive antiphospholipid antibodies, including anti-cardiolipin, or lupus anticoagulant. 8. Presence of fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infection that is not controlled and/ or requiring hospitalization or treatment with IV antimicrobials within 4 weeks of screening. Simple urinary tract infection (UTI) and uncomplicated bacterial pharyngitis are permitted if responding to active treatment. 9. Psychiatric disorder(s) or psychosocial circumstance(s) which in the opinion of the Stanford Transplant team caring for this potential patient would place the patient at an unacceptable risk. 10. Presence or history of liver cirrhosis. 11. History of malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ (e.g. cervix, bladder, breast) unless disease free for at least 3 years 12. Active infection with HIV, hepatitis B (HBsAg positive) or hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV positive) as the immunosuppression contained in this study may pose unacceptable risk. A prior history of hepatitis B or hepatitis C is permitted providing the viral load is undetectable per quantitative PCR and/or nucleic acid testing. Hepatitis B surface antibody following hepatitis B immunization is not considered to be evidence of past infection. 13. Central nervous system (CNS) disorder such as cerebrovascular ischemia/hemorrhage, dementia, cerebellar disease unrelated to MS that in the judgment of the investigator may impair the ability to evaluate neurotoxicity. 14. History of myocardial infarction, cardiac angioplasty or stenting, unstable angina, or other clinically significant cardiac disease (uncontrolled congestive heart failure) within 4 months of enrollment. Subjects with stable cardiac disease fulfilling inclusion criteria are allowed. 15. Subjects receiving anticoagulation therapy or subjects with concomitant use of antiplatelet agents. 16. History of Crohn's, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus that required continued systemic immunosuppression/systemic disease modifying agents within the 2 years prior to trial enrollment. 17. A primary immune deficiency disease 18. In the investigator's judgment, the subject is unlikely to complete protocol-required study visits or procedures, including follow-up visits, or comply with the study requirements for participation. 19. History of severe immediate hypersensitivity reaction to any of the agents used in this study. This includes contraindications or life-threatening allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to KYV-101 or its excipients, including dimethyl sulfoxide; Bendamustine; or tocilizumab. 20.

Prior treatment with total lymphoid irradiation or mitoxantrone exceeding 36 mg/m2 cumulative dose 22. Prior treatment with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, or prior history of cellular immunotherapy (eg. CAR T) or gene therapy directed at any target. 23. Prior treatment with anti-CD20+ monoclonal antibody therapy within 9 months of trial initiation. A 30-day washout will be required for prior treatment with glatiramer acetate, interferon-beta, and fumarates. A 60-day washout will be required for sphingosine-i-phosphate modulators and natalizumab. Excluded will be patients who received prior treatment with mitoxantrone regardless of prior cumulative dose. 24. Prior history of solid organ transplantation 25.

Unstable angina or myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) within 6 months prior to apheresis. * b. New York Heart Association (NYHA) stage III or IV congestive heart failure. * c. History of clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia (eg, ventricular tachycardia), complete left bundle branch block, high-grade atrioventricular (AV) block. * d.
