Clinical Trial Summary

The primary object of this clinical study is to investigate the efficacy and the safety of NOA-001 in patients with ARDS (ARDS caused by Non-COVID-19 or COVID-19).

Description:

(ARDS caused by Non-COVID-19 cohort): The objectives of this clinical study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of NOA-001 in patients with ARDS caused by Non-COVID-19. The number of patients enrolled is 30 (20 patients in the NOA-001 group and 10 patients in the standard therapy group).

(ARDS caused by COVID-19 cohort): The objectives of this clinical study is to investigate the efficacy and the safety of NOA-001 in patients with ARDS caused by COVID-19. The number of patients enrolled is 15 (in the NOA-001 group only).
