Around the world, researchers are working extremely hard to develop new treatments and interventions for COVID-19 with new clinical trials opening nearly every day. This directory provides you with information, including enrollment detail, about these trials. In some cases, researchers are able to offer expanded access (sometimes called compassionate use) to an investigational drug when a patient cannot participate in a clinical trial.
The information provided here is drawn from ClinicalTrials.gov. If you do not find a satisfactory expanded access program here, please search in our COVID Company Directory. Some companies consider expanded access requests for single patients, even if they do not show an active expanded access listing in this database. Please contact the company directly to explore the possibility of expanded access.
Emergency INDs
To learn how to apply for expanded access, please visit our Guides designed to walk healthcare providers, patients and/or caregivers through the process of applying for expanded access. Please note that given the situation with COVID-19 and the need to move as fast as possible, many physicians are requesting expanded access for emergency use. In these cases, FDA will authorize treatment by telephone and treatment can start immediately. For more details, consult FDA guidance. Emergency IND is the common route that patients are receiving convalescent plasma.

An effective, widely available, and safe treatment that can decrease the duration, severity and fatality of COVID-19 is urgently needed. Also, in the most affected regions the pressure on health care systems including ventilator support capacity can be a limiting factor for survival. Initial studies including from our group indicate that administering convalescent plasma containing high titers of neutralizing antibodies to COVID-19 patients who are already relatively late during the disease course after hospital admission is not effective, which can be explained by high titers of autologous antibodies present in patients. Thus, the antiviral capacity of convalescent plasma is hypothesized to be best positioned early in the disease course and in patients at increased risk for a severe disease course. If effective, any treatment that decreases the need for hospital admission is very valuable but so far, no COVID-19 treatment has been shown to prevent clinical deterioration when given before patients are admitted to the hospital. Primary objective: To evaluate the efficacy, feasibility and safety following the administration of convalescent plasma (ConvP) as a therapy for outpatients diagnosed with COVID-19 at increased risk for an unfavourable clinical outcome and within 7 days after symptom onset. Study design: This trial is a nationwide multicenter, double blind, randomized controlled trial in the Netherlands. Patients will be randomized between the transfusion of 300mL of convP versus regular fresh frozen plasma (FFP). Patient population: Patients with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) confirmed COVID disease with less than 8 days of symptoms, age 70 or older or 50-69 years with at least 1 additional risk factor for severe COVID-19 are eligible. Intervention: 300mL of convP with a minimum level of neutralizing antibodies. A total of 690 patients will be included. Expected duration of accrual: 18-24 months Duration of follow up :Day 28 for the primary endpoint

Randomized, double-blind prospective trial to test the efficacy and acceptability of therapeutic, antiseptic mouth rinses to inactivate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) in saliva of COVID-19 positive patients aged 18-65 years old. All mouthrinses are commercially available and will be used according to on-label instructions. Patients will be randomized to a mouthrinse and will be asked to give a saliva sample immediately before and after a one minute mouthwash. Saliva samples will be collected from patients at 15 minute intervals thereafter up to an hour (15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes). The samples will be stored and used for real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) detection of viral SARS-CoV-2 RNA and viral infectivity assays. Patients will also complete a short-survey on the taste and experience of using the mouthwash. This study involves 480 subject participants and one, 75-90 minute visit.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether immunosuppressive therapies used by patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases have an impact on the viral load and the humoral and cellular responses during viral infection with SarSCoV2, compared to members of their family cluster infected with the same viral strain.
University of California, Irvine
The investigators are enrolling 100 healthcare Provider volunteers (n=100) from across the United States to help to evaluate and document the financial impact of COVID-19 on Physicians and other healthcare Providers. This investigation will compare individual Physician revenues before and after the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. The investigators expect to be able to differentiate between revenues lost due to the COVID-19-driven business recession and revenues lost due to the manipulation of reimbursement processes by insurance companies. The inextricable linkage between Payer and Physician revenues suggests that Payer revenues are higher at the direct expense of Physicians, since both streams come from the same sources of funding. The secondary objective is aimed at revealing the methods Payers use to retain more money.

A) Phase II: Early viral responses to triazavirin In hospitalised patients with mild-moderate COVID-19, in addition to standard of care therapy, treatment with triazavirin 250mg three times daily for five days, the slope of increase of the Ct values of serial nasopharyngeal swabs to 12 days after initiation of treatment will be ≥24% higher than in hospitalised patients receiving standard of care treatment only. B) Phase III: Efficacy of triazavirin to improve clinical outcomes In hospitalised patients with mild-moderate laboratory proven COVID-19, in addition to standard of care therapy, treatment with triazavirin 250mg three times daily for five days will reduce a composite outcome - death; ICU admission or mechanical ventilation; or prolonged duration of admission- by ≥29% when compared to the composite outcome in hospitalised patients receiving standard of care therapy only.

Since the beginning of the year, the entire world has been concerned with the novel SARS-CoV2 virus. After the first case descriptions in Wuhan, there has been a rapid increase in the number of cases in Germany as well. In case of an illness with the virus, the affected patients can suffer from a slight infection of the upper respiratory tract up to severe lung failure and death. Interestingly, up to now, children are usually less severely affected than adults. However, the actual infection rates are probably similar to those of adults, even if the actual prevalence in children is difficult to quantify so far. The extent of the disease in children has also been less researched to date than in adults, and the same applies to pregnant women and their newborns. In addition, intensive research into possible therapeutic strategies and new vaccines is necessary. Here, however, the number of clinical studies in children is also far behind. In order to be able to understand the infection process and to protect the population with their children, comprehensive testing is necessary. However, this poses great challenges for local health authorities. Scientific investigations are also costly, but are already being carried out by many institutes. So far, for example in the SeBlueCo study, a very low prevalence of antibodies (1.3% of people) has been show. In children, however, both the routes of infection and the way the immune system deals with the virus are probably different than in adults. In this study the investigators now want to examine residual blood samples from pediatric patients of the pediatric and adolescent clinic in the time course after the beginning of the pandemic in order to better understand and monitor the development of antibody prevalence.
