Inclusion Criteria

Written informed consent obtained from the subject or legally acceptable/authorized representative (LAR)* in compliance with all local legal requirements . *Informed consent process by LAR is not applicable in Lithuania, Hospitalized, adult (= 18 years of age) subject (any gender)., Diagnosis of CAP (e.g., according to ATS/IDSA guideline) or COVID-19 pneumonia (e.g., according to local guidelines) before or within 48 hours after hospital admission, and with radiologic evidence (available from routine SoC done before or after hospital admission) showing new pulmonary lobar or multilobar infiltrates consistent with CAP or COVID-19 pneumonia., Receiving oxygen supply via low-flow oxygen (LFO, by mask or nasal prongs with > 2 L/min) or on non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or high-flow oxygen (HFO) at start of treatment with investigational medicinal product (IMP)., Fulfilling at least one of the following clinical respiratory parameters within 24 hours prior to start of treatment with IMP: • SpO2 = 94% (on room air, and without preceding chronic lung disease); • 100 mm Hg < PaO2/FiO2 = 300 mm Hg under HFO or NIV., Treatment with IMP has to be started within 7 days after first hospital-admission for CAP or COVID-19 pneumonia., Subject must receive SoC treatment for CAP or COVID-19 pneumonia.

Exclusion Criteria
