METHODS: Twelve adult patients meeting the Berlin definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome with a PaO(2)/FiO(2) ratio of < 200 were randomized to receive allogeneic adipose-derived MSCs or placebo in a 1:1 fashion. Many studies, including publications from our group [11, 12] , have demonstrated compelling evidence of the benefits of MSCs from both bone marrow [13] [14] [15] and adipose tissues [16] [17] [18] in animal models for lung injury and ARDS. In this randomized, placebo-controlled phase I clinical trial, the primary goal was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of systemic administration of allogeneic adipose-derived MSCs in ARDS patients. ./cache/cord-001262-8s7g2wvd.txt ./txt/cord-001262-8s7g2wvd.txt
