Intermediate-size Expanded Access Program (EAP), Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSC) for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Due to COVID-19 Infection

February 17, 2021 updated by: Mesoblast International Sàrl

Intermediate-size Expanded Access of Remestemcel-L, Ex-vivo Cultured Adult Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Due to COVID-19 Infection

The objectives of this intermediate-size expanded access protocol are to assess the safety and efficacy of remestemcel-L in participants with ARDS due to coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
No longer available

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This intermediate-size expanded access protocol plans to treat approximately 50 adult participants, male and female, with moderate to severe ARDS due to COVID-19 infection. Participants who are 18 years of age or older will be enrolled at multiple clinical sites across the United States.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Expanded Access

Expanded Access Type

Expanded Access Type

Describes the category of expanded access under U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. There are three types of expanded access:
  • Individual Patients: Allows a single patient, with a serious disease or condition who cannot participate in a clinical trial, access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This category also includes access in an emergency situation.
  • Intermediate-size Population: Allows more than one patient (but generally fewer patients than through a Treatment IND/Protocol) access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This type of expanded access is used when multiple patients with the same disease or condition seek access to a specific drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA.
  • Treatment IND/Protocol: Allows a large, widespread population access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This type of expanded access can only be provided if the product is already being developed for marketing for the same use as the expanded access use.
  • Intermediate-size Population
  • Treatment IND/Protocol

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. 18 years or older
  2. Participant has coronavirus disease COVID-19 confirmed by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay or another diagnostic test

  3. Moderate to severe ARDS as determined by the following criteria (adapted from the Berlin criteria):

    • Bilateral opacities must be present on a chest radiograph or computed tomographic (CT) scan. These opacities are not fully explained by pleural effusions, lobar collapse, lung collapse, or pulmonary nodules.
    • Respiratory failure not fully explained by cardiac failure or fluid overload. An objective assessment (e.g., echocardiography) to exclude hydrostatic pulmonary edema is required if no risk factors for ARDS are present.

    • Moderate to severe impairment of oxygenation must be present, as defined by the ratio of arterial oxygen tension to fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2). The severity of the hypoxemia defines the severity of the ARDS:

      • Moderate ARDS: e PaO2/FiO2 >100 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and ≤200 mmHg, on ventilator settings that include positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ≥5 centimeters (cm) of water OR
      • Severe ARDS: PaO2/FiO2 ≤100 mmHg on ventilator settings that include PEEP ≥5 cm of water
  4. ≤72 hours post-initiation of ventilation
  5. High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) serum level ≥ 4.0 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL)
  6. Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE II) score ≥5
  7. Aspartate aminotransferase/alanine transaminase (AST/ALT) < 5x upper limit of normal (ULN)
  8. Creatinine clearance ≥ 30 milliliters per minute (mL/min)
  9. Serum creatinine <2 mg/dL

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Participant is receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)
  2. Females who are pregnant or lactating
  3. Known hypersensitivity to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or to porcine or bovine proteins
  4. Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requiring oxygen therapy prior to becoming ill with ARDS due to COVID-19 infection
  5. Any end-stage organ disease which, in the opinion of the treating physician, may possibly affect the safety of the remestemcel-L treatment
