Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Covid19 | Biological: MesenCure | Phase 1 Phase 2 |
Primary endpoint: The IV administration of MesenCure is safe under the following conditions: in subjects hospitalized with COVID19 moderate to severe disease, defined upon clinical situation and radiologic findings.
Secondary endpoint: The IV administration of MesenCure is efficacious under the following conditions:
Clinical parameters: Health questionnaire, respiratory rate, heart rate, blood pressure, RA O2 saturation, hospitalization duration.
______________________________________________________ Laboratory findings: leukocyte and lymphocyte count, CRP, D-Dimer, renal and liver function, optional: cytokine levels.
______________________________________________________ Radiologic findings: pulmonary infiltrates, pleural effusion.

Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: MesenCure treatment
Clinical interventions: Health questionnaire, respiratory rate, heart rate, blood pressure, RA O2 saturation, x-ray. Blood tests: leukocyte and lymphocyte count, CRP, D-Dimer, renal and liver function, optional: cytokine levels. |
Biological: MesenCure
Three administrations of MesenCure in addition to standard care |
- Safety of Mesencure [ Time Frame: 30 days ]No treatment-related adverse reactions
- Improvement in RA-O2 saturation [ Time Frame: 14 days ]Elevation to 94% and above
- Elevation of lymphocytes level [ Time Frame: 14 days ]Elevation compared to day 0
- Reduction of CRP [ Time Frame: 14 days ]Reduction compared to day 0
- Improvement of health questionnaire [ Time Frame: 21 days ]Improvement compared to day 0
- Reduced hospitalization duration [ Time Frame: 30 days ]Reduced compared to clinical site matching historical data
- improvement in pulmonary infiltrates/ pulmonary congestion [ Time Frame: 30 days ]Improvement compared to day 0

- Abnormal clinically significant laboratory test findings, as per the investigator's judgment.
- Poorly controlled diabetic subjects (HbA1c > 9%).
- Known active lung malignancy.
Concomitant treatment:
