About this study

Official title: Two-treatment,Randomized, Controlled, Multicenter Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Intravenous Administration of Expanded Allogeneic Adipose Tissue Adult Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Critically Ill Patients COVID-19

The investigational medicinal product consists of expanded allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells derived from adipose tissue and administered intravenously.

The objective of this project is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the administration of expanded allogeneic adipose tissue adult mesenchymal stem cells, in patients infected with SARS-COV-2 with COVID-19 type complications.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Allogeneic and expanded adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells in people with COVID and Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria de la Fundación Jiménez Díaz at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Efficacy of the administration of allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue assessed by Survival Rate) (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Mar 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 3 Nov 2026.
