Allogeneic Natural Killer (NK) Cell Therapy in Subjects Hospitalized for COVID-19
brief summary
This study is being done to determine the highest tolerated dose of an investigational cell therapy called DVX201 in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. DVX201 is an allogeneic NK (natural killer) cell therapy. NK cells are a normal part of your immune system that have the ability to identify and kill cells in the body that are infected by viruses such as COVID-19. There is evidence that both NK cell exhaustion and low numbers of NK cell in the blood occur in COVID-19 patients, and this may contribute to worsening of the infection. Therefore, infusion of healthy functional NK cells (like DVX201) may help overcome COVID-19 infection and prevent progression of the disease. This study is being done to look at the safety and tolerability of DVX201 in patients with COVID-19 and to gather information on how COVID-19 responds to treatment with DVX201.
