Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

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.
