Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The incidence of adverse events observed in Blood tests and vital signs including Temperature via tympanic thermometer, heart/pulse rate and oxygen saturation by pulse oximeter, Blood pressure by sphygmomanometer and respiratory rate by count..[All adverse events will be collected from the first infusion visit (Day 0) and will be updated for the preceding period during the Day 14 and Day 28 visits. Safety blood tests (haematology and biochemistry) will be collected at each visit (Day 0, Day 14, Day 28 and Day 84). Vital signs observations will be done during and immediately following each T cell infusion (Day 0 and Day 14). From Day 28 to Day 84, a targeted group of adverse events will be collected – adverse events relating to graft-versus-host disease, infection and thrombosis. During this period, serious adverse events of any type that are deemed to be possibly, probably or definitely related to the investigational product will also be collected.]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The kinetics of functional SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells.[Blood will be collected at each study visit (all infusions and follow-up visits) to allow the examination of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. These cells will be analysed to assess their phenotype and function over the course of the trial to determine any changes.]
