Safety of T Regulatory Cell Therapy in Subjects With COVID-19 Induced Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Purpose

This study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of treatment with related donor Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) matched or haploidentical allogeneic T regulatory cells in patients with COVID 19 induced ARDS. Study treatment will be administered in 1 to 2 doses, with the possibility of a second infusion given 14 days after the initial infusion.

Conditions

  • Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
  • Covid19
