5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This double blind, placebo controlled, multi-arm, multi-site study investigates the safety and efficacy of stem cell therapy for the treatment of patients admitted to hospital suffering complications from COVID-19 and the treatment of healthy subjects (healthcare providers) for prophylactic effect following those patients.
Detailed Description
Recent preliminary data from Wuhan/China have claimed that intravenous injections of mesenchymal stem cells derived from human umbilical chords have resulted in complete recovery of COVID-19 infected elderly patients with respiratory failure. This study investigates the efficacy and safety of a single umbilical cord derived stem cell intravenous injection in patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 infection with fever and respiratory illness. A second arm will test efficacy and safety of a single umbilical cord derived stem cell intravenous injection to healthcare providers at high exposure rates to COVID-19 infection.
