Brief Summary:
Considering the potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in the treatment of lung injuries by COVID-19, this pilot clinical trial evaluates the safety and potential efficacy of the cell therapy, administered intravenously, in patients with pneumonia associated with COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Experimental: MSC - intermediate dose (5x10ˆ7)
Patients will receive standard care plus cell therapy.
 Other: Mesenchymal stromal cell-based therapy
Intravenous administration of MSCs, performed as single dose (high dose group) or repeated after 48 h (low doses; intermediate dose)
Experimental: MSC - high dose (10x10ˆ7)
Patients will receive standard care plus cell therapy.
 Other: Mesenchymal stromal cell-based therapy
Intravenous administration of MSCs, performed as single dose (high dose group) or repeated after 48 h (low doses; intermediate dose)
