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.
