Study Summary

This trial will test whether it is feasible to use cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to treat patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) related to COVID-19 infection. If it is successful, a larger trial will be conducted to compare the effect of MSCs with standard of care in these patients.

Eligible Conditions
  • Blood Cancers
  • Coronavirus Disease
  • COVID-19
  • COVID-19 Infection
  • Cancer

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Pilot study (mesenchymal stem cells)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients receive MSCs IV over 1-2 hours on day 1. Patients may receive a second infusion of MSCs within 7 days after the first infusion per physician discretion.
Group II: Phase II Arm I (mesenchymal stem cells)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients receive MSCs as in the Pilot study.
Group III: Phase II Arm II (standard of care)Active Control1 Intervention
Patients receive standard of care.
