Study Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety of giving mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to patients who have ARDS. Researchers also want to learn if these cells can help control ARDS when given with drugs that are routinely used to treat ARDS. In this study, participants will receive 1 infusion of MSCs. This is an investigational study. MSC infusions for the treatment of ARDS is investigational. Up to 20 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
