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.
Search Tips
To search this directory, simply type a drug name, condition, company name, location, or other term of your choice into the search bar and click SEARCH. For broadest results, type the terms without quotation marks; to narrow your search to an exact match, put your terms in quotation marks (e.g., “acute respiratory distress syndrome” or “ARDS”). You may opt to further streamline your search by using the Status of the study and Intervention Type options. Simply click one or more of those boxes to refine your search.

The primary objective of this study is to provide expanded access of remdesivir (RDV) for the treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) infection.
Rabin Medical Center
This is a multi-center, randomized controlled, superiority, open label trial. The objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of HCQ in patients with newly diagnosed COVID-19 who have mild to moderate disease or at risk for complications. We aim to demonstrate decrease in progression to severe pneumonia and hospital related complications among patients who are treated with HCQ compared to patients who are not.
Bellerophon Therapeutics
This randomized, controlled trial will assess the efficacy and safety of pulsed iNO in subjects with COVID-19 who are hospitalized and require supplemental oxygen.
University of Minnesota
The Professional Peer Resilience Initiative (PPRI) study is an observational study aimed at understanding how symptoms of traumatic stress and resilience evolve over time in the University of Minnesota (UMN) healthcare workforce during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The study is being conducted concurrently with a UMN peer support program called the MinnRAP program and will remotely administer quality of life and mental health surveys to healthcare workers before they start the MinnRAP program and throughout their participation in the program.
Genentech, Inc.
This single arm, multicenter study provides the pertuzumab and trastuzumab fixed-dose combination formulation for subcutaneous injection (PH FDC SC) administered at home by a home health nursing provider for patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer who have completed concurrent chemotherapy with pertuzumab (Perjeta) and trastuzumab (Herceptin) by intravenous administration (P+H IV) and are currently receiving or will be receiving maintenance therapy with P+H IV, PH FDC SC, or trastuzumab SC in the clinic. The main objective is to enable continuity of care during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study will enroll approximately 200 patients in the United States. Participants with early or metastatic HER2+ breast cancer will be enrolled in this study. Participants with metastatic HER2+ breast cancer will receive treatment every 3 weeks and continue treatment unless early cessation is necessary due to disease recurrence, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, participant withdrawal of consent, or per physician's recommendation. Participants with early HER2+ breast cancer will receive PH FDC SC to complete 1 year (up to 18 cycles) of dual blockade, including the P+H IV, PH FDC SC, or trastuzumab SC they received prior to enrolling in this study, unless early cessation is necessary due to disease recurrence, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, participant withdrawal of consent, or per physician's recommendation. A remote cardiac surveillance substudy will be optional for patients enrolled at select sites. The Sponsor may decide to terminate the study when the COVID-19 pandemic is no longer a risk for this patient population.
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an acute respiratory syndrome. It is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. People with severe COVID-19 infection have a hyper-inflammatory response. Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) plays a role in the innate immune system. BTK inhibition can be used to target the innate immune system that appears to contribute to mortality. This could be an effective way to help the inflammatory responses in people with COVID-19. Objective: To learn more about the immunologic mechanisms by which BTK inhibition may decrease hyper-inflammatory responses in people with COVID-19. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older in one of the following groups: - They are in the hospital with COVID-19. They will or will not be treated with a BTK inhibitor. - They do not have COVID-19. They are or are not in the hospital. They will be treated with a BTK inhibitor for a reason other than COVID-19. Design: Participants will be screened with a review of their demographic and clinical information. Their medical history will be reviewed. If they have COVID-19, their symptoms will be assessed. Participants will give 3-4 blood samples. These may be taken through a vein. They may also be taken through an existing central venous catheter. Participants may give a stool sample. This will be collected by nursing staff. It will be collected using a stool collection vial. Stool collection is optional. Participants samples will be collected over about 7 days. These will be used for research and genetic testing.

This is a Phase I open-label interventional study which will test the efficacy of ResCure™ in the treatment of patients with COVID-19 infection.
British Ayurvedic Medical Council
Despite worldwide efforts to contain, manage and treat Covid-19, the pandemic is continuing to spread. This calls for an urgent clinically-proven prophylaxis and therapeutic strategy. Recent developments on the use of traditional medicines in Covid-19 management has drawn enough attention to start several research studies. Based on the Indian Traditional Medicine, Ayurveda's community initiatives, preliminary studies, and our experiential knowledge on Covid-19 settings, we propose present study to prevent the development of COVID-19 symptoms in people who live or have come contact with an individual diagnosed with COVID-19.
Stanford University
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) infusion of ulinastatin compared to placebo with respect to time to recovery, disease severity, need for ventilator support, and mortality in patients with COVID 19.
Brigham and Women's Hospital
In this research study the investigators want to learn more about the potential benefit of radiation to the lung to improve the health of patients who are hospitalized with Coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) due to infection with a virus called SARS-CoV-2. This infection causes inflammation of the lung, which can make it difficult to breathe. As a result, patients may need supplemental oxygen or be placed on a ventilator. The investigators believe that low dose radiation therapy to the lung may reduce this inflammation and increase the likelihood that patients will need less oxygen support such as ventilation or supplemental oxygen, or be discharged from the hospital in fewer days, compared to without radiation therapy. The amount of radiation is much lower than what is typically used to treat other conditions such as cancer, although it is higher than the dose used for routine medical imaging.
