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 COVID-19 crisis began in China in December 2019 and was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation on March 11th 2020. The pandemic has changed the way that clinicians interact with and treat patients overnight. Staff within the NHS will be under high levels of stress due to the increased needs and worse outcomes of work as they are shielding or self-isolating and may feel helpless and guilty. The psychological impact of the pandemic will be prolonged and varied. It is vital that Investigators increase understanding as much as possible to support NHS staff. The aim of this survey is to examine the possible mental health burden on NHS staff as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and how these change as the pandemic progresses. By understanding these effects, it will allow researchers to identify recommendations to allow support mechanisms to be put in place for NHS staff, to better manage this and future pandemics and similar crises. Investigators are aiming to sample several cohorts of NHS staff including a subset of staff who are shielding. Staff will be asked to complete a series of online surveys at multiple timepoint: on study initiation, 1 month later and then 3 months after the pandemic has ceased in the UK. Additional timepoints may be added depending on the length and severity of the pandemic. The main outcomes will be tracking changes in mental health measurements at the pre-defined timepoints. This work will allow Investigators to produce recommendations about the increased mental health support that NHS staff will need. If a need is demonstrated then an interventional research project will be designed and implemented.

Respiratory infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus is associated with a major risk of viral pneumonia that can lead to respiratory distress requiring resuscitation. In the most severe forms, it may require a mechanical ventilation or even lead to an acute respiratory distress syndrome with a particularly poor prognosis. The SARS-CoV2 is a single-stranded RNA virus of positive polarity and belongs to the beta genus of Coronaviruses. SARS-CoV2 is responsible for the third epidemic in less than twenty years secondary to a Coronavirus (SARS-CoV then MERS-CoV) and if the mortality associated with it is lower than that of previous strains, particularly MERS-CoV (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome), its spread is considerably bigger. As a result, the number of patients developing respiratory distress that require an invasive mechanical ventilation is high, with prolonged ventilation duration in these situations.

The investigators hypothesize that use of convalescent plasma donated from individuals recovered from Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) will help expedite recovery of individuals with active, severe COVID-19 infection.
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
The primary objective of this early Phase 1/2 study is to identify the V591 dose that achieves the target immune response in humans based on preclinical or early clinical data.
University of Utah
The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of processed human amniotic fluid as a treatment for COVID-19.
Gilead Sciences
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy of remdesivir (RDV) in reducing the rate of of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) related hospitalization or all-cause death in non-hospitalized participants with early stage COVID-19 and to evaluate the safety of RDV administered in an outpatient setting.
Allergan
The aim of this study is to test Cenicriviroc (CVC) as a means to reduce the severity of the lung disease COVID-19 caused by an infection with SARS-CoV-2. The safety of CVC, when administered to COVID-19 patients, will also be assessed. Furthermore, the clinical trial aims to answer the question of whether patients with pre-existing conditions, who have an increased risk of severe COVID-19 progression, benefit more and particularly from CVC. CVC is an orally available dual inhibitor of the chemokine receptors CCR2 and CCR5, which is expected to reduce (hyper-) inflammation in COVID-19. The main goal of the study is to determine whether CVC helps increase the number of patients who are symptom-free and not hospitalized after 14 days compared to a placebo. Approximately 66.7% of the patients enrolled in the study will receive CVC and 33.3% will get an optically identical pill (placebo). Subjects will be assessed daily while hospitalized. Discharged patients will be asked to attend study visits at Days 8, 15, 22, and 29 and 85. All subjects will undergo a series of clinical, safety, and laboratory assessments. Blood samples and oropharyngeal (OP) swabs will be obtained on Day 1; 3, 5 (while hospitalized); and Day 8, 15 and 29 (if able to return to clinic or still hospitalized). The presence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies will be determined on Days 29 and 85.

Sex and gender matter to health equity, especially in a pandemic. Sex (a biological attribute) and gender (a social construct) may influence an individual's susceptibility, vulnerability and exposure to infectious disease. In previous coronavirus epidemics (SARS and MERS), male sex was associated with worse outcomes. Both immune and the hemostatic response display ample sexual dimorphism. The primary aim of the study is to determine whether sex differences in biomarkers of platelet and immune function, gut microbiome, clinical characteristics, therapy, clinical cost sensitive outcomes (i.e. in-hospital transition of care, case severity, and mortality due to COVID-19) exist in patients affected by COVID-19.
