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.

This is an observational case-control study to evaluate COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against hospitalisation with COVID-19 related conditions in St. Petersburg, Russia. Two sets of cases and control will be retrospectively analyzed to compare vaccination proportions and other characteristics to infer vaccine effectiveness from odds ratios. The first set of cases will be extracted from the data on hospitalisation of patients with COVID-19 to First Pavlov State Medical University of Saint-Petersburg hospitals, and controls will be patients hospitalised with other conditions. The second set of cases and controls will be based on patients referred to Medical Institute named after Berezin Sergey for computed tomography. Cases will be patients with positive SARS-CoV-2 status computed tomography confirmed pneumonia or patients referred to hospitalisation, and control will be patients without pneumonia and not referred to hospitalisation.

The XPHI-COVID-2 randomized study aims to investigate the moral choices in a context of scarce resources. The participants are asked to complete the questionnaire of the Oxford Utilitarianism Scale and are exposed to medical triage dilemmas. Participants are randomized between a group with reading of ethical guidelines and a group without reading of ethical guidelines, before they are asked to complete the questionnaire and being exposed to triage dilemmas.

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a FDA-approved treatment for depression and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). The goal of the study is to learn how to optimize the treatment to improve symptoms of depression and OCD. This research project will test a new accelerated 5-day accelerated rTMS protocol for treating symptoms of depression and OCD. A second goal of this study is to identify biomarkers of depression and OCD in the brain using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). This approach will predict who will benefit from TMS, determine the optimal treatment target, and improve treatment outcomes. Subjects will receive a clinical assessment of symptoms and an fMRI brain scan before and after each treatment course to measure the effect of treatment on symptom severity and on fMRI measures of functional connectivity. Participants will be randomized to receive rTMS targeting either the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) or the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC). Participants will complete a 5-day course of rTMS delivered hourly for 10 hours per day. Participants who show a partial response to treatment but not a full response will then receive a second 5-day course. Treatment non-responders will be crossed over to receive rTMS targeting the opposite brain area. The primary hypothesis is that accelerated rTMS treatment will yield rapid improvement in symptoms for patients with depression and OCD in just 5 days, and that response rates can be further improved by adding a second 5-day treatment course.

The main aim of the study is to estimate the potential efficacy of i.v. canrenone as add-on therapy on maximal medical treatment versus maximal medical treatment alone in treating moderate-to-severe ARDS due to SARS-CoV-2.

The increased risk of transmission of COVID-19 infection causes the incidence of death in health workers to escalate. It requires further research on risk factors and intervention in health worker professionals, especially on immunity factors and nutritional status. Quality of diet and nutrition is very important to support the immune system when infected. Several probiotic strains have been shown to decrease the duration and incidence of diarrhea and respiratory infections, suggesting the Gut-Lung Axis pathway. Some probiotics also improve the balance of diversity in the composition of the gut microbiota and affect body weight in obese people. Probiotics have also been shown to improve vitamin D absorption. A combination of vitamin D and probiotics may be an alternative to reduce gut dysbiosis that will directly or indirectly reduce the risk and severity of viral infections including SARS-CoV-2.

This phase II trial studies the immune response to COH04S1 compared to Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) SARS-COV-2 vaccine in patients with blood cancer who have received stem cell transplant or cellular therapy. COH04S1 belongs to a category called modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vaccines, created from a new version of MVA, called synthetic MVA. COH04S1 works by inducing immunity (the ability to recognize and fight against an infection) to SARS-CoV-2. The immune system is stimulated to produce antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 that would block the virus from entering healthy cells. The immune system also grows new disease fighting T cells that can recognize and destroy infected cells. Giving COH04S1 after cellular therapy may work better in reducing the chances of contracting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) or developing a severe form of COVID-19 disease in patients with blood cancer compared to EUA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.

Background: Some people who have had COVID-19 experience changes in the eye. Sometimes these changes are subtle and may not affect vision. Researchers want to learn how many people experience these eye changes and where in the eye they occur to better understand the outcomes of COVID-19 and its treatments. Objective: To examine possible changes in the eye that might have occurred as a result of COVID-19. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older who were diagnosed with COVID-19 and recovered. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam. They will have blood tests. Participants will have an eye exam. Their pupils will be dilated with eye drops. Eye pressure and movements will be measured. Participants will have optical coherence tomography. Pictures will be taken of the retina and the inside of the eyes. Participants may have fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography. They will be given a dye through an intravenous line. The dye will travel up to the blood vessels in their eyes. Pictures will be taken of the dye as it flows through the blood vessels. Participants may have electroretinography to test the retina. They will sit in the dark with their eyes patched for 30 minutes. Then they will watch flashing lights while wearing contact lenses that sense signals from the retina. Participants may have adaptive optics-assisted imaging. They will look at a specific location while images are taken of the retina. During the study, participants will have blood drawn through a needle in their arm. Fluid or tissue from the eye may be obtained if participants have a medically needed procedure. Participation will last for 12 months.
