Summary

This was a Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial to assess the safety and efficacy of a single dose of Allogeneic Bone Marrow-derived Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (hMSCs) infusion in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

Patients will be eligible for inclusion if they meet all of the below criteria. Criteria 1-3 must all be present within a 24-hour time period and at the time of enrollment:

Acute onset (defined below) of:

  • A need for positive pressure ventilation by an endotracheal or tracheal tube with a PaO2/FiO2 ratio 12)
  • Severe chronic respiratory disease with a PaCO2 > 50 mm Hg or the use of home oxygen
  • Patient, surrogate, or physician not committed to full support (exception: a patient will not be excluded if he/she would receive all supportive care except for attempts at resuscitation from cardiac arrest)
  • Major trauma in the prior 5 days
  • Lung transplant patient
  • No consent/inability to obtain consent
  • Moribund patient not expected to survive 24 hours
  • World Health Organization (WHO) Class III or IV pulmonary hypertension
  • Documented deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within past 3 months
  • No arterial line/no intent to place an arterial line
  • No intent/unwillingness to follow lung protective ventilation strategy or fluid management protocol
  • Currently receiving extracorporeal life support (ECLS) or high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV)
