Target Recruitment
Not specified
Inclusion Criteria
  • Provides informed consent
  • Has laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection as determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or other commercial or public health assay in any specimen
    1. Is hospitalized with COVID-19-induced ARD or ARDS (any severity) with a PaO2/FiO2 ≤300. The PaO2/FiO2 may be estimated from pulse oximetry or determined by arterial blood gas
  • Requires oxygen supplementation at screening
  • Is willing to follow contraception requirements
Exclusion Criteria
  • Current standard of care treatments for COVID-19 appear to be working and the subject is clinically improving

  • A previous MSC infusion unrelated to this trial

  • Have any of the following medical conditions:

    • Cardio-pulmonary resuscitation within 14 days of randomization
    • Uncontrolled or untreated symptomatic arrhythmias. Exception: Subjects with controlled, asymptomatic atrial fibrillation during screening may enroll
    • Myocardial infarction within the last 6 weeks
    • Congestive heart failure (NYHA Grade 3 or 4)
    • Pulmonary hypertension (WHO Class III/IV)
    • Currently receiving extracorporeal life support or membrane oxygenation (ECLS/ECMO)
    • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≥ 5x upper limit of normal (ULN)
    • Relevant renal impairment (eGFR < 50 mL/min)
    • Any significant medical condition, laboratory abnormality or psychiatric illness that in the investigator's opinion would interfere or prevent the subject from safely participating in the study
  • Pregnant or breast feeding or planning for either during the study

  • Suspected uncontrolled active bacterial, fungal, viral, or other infection (aside from infection with COVID-19)

  • History of a splenectomy, lung transplant or lung lobectomy;

  • Concurrent participation in another clinical trial involving therapeutic interventions (observational study participation is acceptable).

  • Expected survival or time to withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments expected to be < 7 days.

  • Do Not Intubate order;

  • Home mechanical ventilation (noninvasive ventilation or via tracheotomy) except for continuous positive airway pressure or bi-level positive airway pressure (CPAP/BIPAP) used solely for sleep-disordered breathing
