* Agrees to not participate in another clinical trial for the treatment of mild RD through Day 28

Exclusion Criteria

* Presence of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
* Unstable hypertension
* History of significantly impaired renal function defined as an eGFR ≤ 30mL/min/1.73m2 (MDRD equation or similar) or impaired hepatic function defined as the presence of decompensated cirrhosis (acute deterioration in liver function characterized by jaundice, ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, or variceal hemorrhage)
