NCT05132972

Brief Summary

This study is conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of stem cells as adjunctive treatment for severe COVID-19 patients. Here, we want to study whether the administration of mesenchymal stem cells are safe and able to relieve some of the COVID-19 symptoms

Study Arms (2)

Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

Group receiving standard COVID-19 treatment and UCMSC infusion

Biological: Normoxic Allogenic UCMSC

Control

SHAM COMPARATOR

Group receiving standard COVID-19 treatment and normal saline infusion

Other: Normal saline solution

Interventions
