Sponsor's own description
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a devastating inflammatory and destructive disease in critical ill patients. Preclinical studies have shown a promising perspective of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapies in ARDS. But the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord MSCs (UCMSCs) have not yet been convinced in clinical trails. This study will explore the safety and life-rescue potential of UCMSCs in refracotry ARDS.
