Stem cell therapy for severe viral pneumonia
Treatments studied
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether injecting stem cells from the womb's blood supply can help treat severe viral pneumonia. It aims to improve recovery for people who are very sick and need hospital care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have severe pneumonia caused by a virus (other than COVID-19) that requires hospital care.
- You do not have any active cancer or pre-cancerous conditions.
- You are not currently on a heart-lung bypass machine (ECMO).
- You are not taking strong immune-suppressing drugs like high-dose steroids or chemotherapy.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, and agree to use effective birth control during the study.

This trial tests whether an injection of stem cells from umbilical cords can help people with severe ARDS (a type of lung failure) recover faster. It is for those who have not improved after standard treatment and whose ARDS is caused by an infection (not COVID-19).
This trial tests whether high-dose vitamin C given through an IV can improve outcomes in people with severe pneumonia. It may help your body fight infection and reduce complications, but it also has several safety checks.
This trial tests whether adding a Chinese herbal formula (Yiqi Huoxue Jiedu) and inhaled bacteriophages (viruses that kill bacteria) to standard care can help treat severe pneumonia caused by drug-resistant bacteria like Klebsiella, Acinetobacter, or Pseudomonas. It is for adults aged 18 to 85 who are not pregnant or immunocompromised and can undergo a bronchoscopy to collect samples.
This early-stage trial tests a combination of a traditional Chinese herbal formula and bacteriophages (viruses that kill bacteria) to treat severe pneumonia caused by drug-resistant bacteria. The treatment is inhaled directly into the lungs and may help when standard antibiotics don't work.
This study tests if giving steroids can help adults with severe pneumonia caused by the flu who are in the ICU. You may qualify if you are very sick with flu pneumonia and need a breathing tube or other intensive treatments.
This trial tests donated (allogeneic) fat-derived stem cells to see if they improve outcomes in adults with severe or critical COVID-19. It may help calm severe lung/immune problems, but whether it works and is safe will be studied in this Phase 2 study.
