Proof-of-Concept Clinical Pharmacology Trial for COVID-19 Antigen Presentation Therapeutic Biologics

Purpose

Conducting an initial small, controlled clinical pharmacology trial to assess for therapeutic biologics activity (proof-of-concept) that suggests the potential for clinical benefit of COVID-19 patients. 1. Treat Infection of Multiple Gene Mutation COVID-19 Virus Strains. 2. Activate Human Antigen Presentation Reaction to COVID-19 Specific Antigen. 3. The human antigen presenting cells (APCs) can take up and process COVID-19 target antigen protein into small peptide fragments, and then COVID-19 virus can be killed by APCs directly.
