7. Eligible subjects of child-bearing age (male or female) must agree to take effective contraceptive measures (including hormonal contraception, barrier methods or abstinence) with his/her partner during the study period and for at least 7 days following the last study treatment.
1. Patient requiring invasive mechanical ventilation.
2. Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to investigational product or its excipients.
3. Patients with the following clinically significant laboratory abnormalities: SGOT, SGPT, Serum Bilirubin > 2.5 times the Upper Limit Normal (ULN)) at screening visit.
4. Patients with abnormal Sr.Creatinine value of >= 2 mg/dl at screening visit.

6. Patients with uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes mellitus with random sugar >= 200 mg/dL.
7. Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure > 160mmHg, or diastolic blood pressure >100mmHg); previous history of hypertension crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy.
8. History or presence of clinically significant hepatic, renal,cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, diseases or metabolic disturbances or other relevant systemic diseases that would preclude the safe administration of the Investigational product.
9. Any condition for which, in the opinion of the investigator,participation would not be in the best interest of the patient (eg, compromise the well-being) or that could prevent, limit,or confound the protocol-specified assessments.

14. Poorly controlled heart diseases, such as NYHA class II and above cardiac insufficiency, unstable angina pectoris,myocardial infarction within 1 year before enrollment, supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmia need treatment or intervention.
15. Patient received an investigational intervention (including investigational vaccines) or used an invasive investigational
medical device within 30 days or 5 half-lives prior to Baseline, whichever is longer, before the signing the consent or is currently enrolled in an investigational study.
16. Pregnant or breast-feeding at screening.
