Summary

Novel coronavirus disease COVID-19, produced by SARS-CoV-2, has become a health emergency around the world. Since first patients were detected in Wuhan (China), in December 2019, COVID-19 has spread quickly worldwide, being a severe threat to public health. Fever, dry cough, shortness of breath and breathing distress are the main characteristics of COVID-19 infection. Some patients develop overwhelming lung inflammation and acute respiratory failure, for which there is no specific therapy. Therefore, safe and effective treatment for COVID-19 pneumonia is utterly necessary, mainly in critical cases. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) have been widely used in the immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. MSCs can regulate both innate and adaptive immunity by suppressing the proliferation, differentiation and activation of different cells. These immunomodulatory properties of MSCs support performance of the double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, phase I/II clinical trial to evaluate safety and efficacy of allogeneic MSCs for treatment of severe COVID-19 pneumonia.
