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 study is meant to assess the lung mechanics in SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure. A precise characterisation of lung mechanics and heart-lung-interactions might allow a better understanding of SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure and thus lead to better mechanical ventilation strategies. This monocentric, observational study of critically ill COVID-19 patients in the ICU, will employ impedance tomography, right-heart catheterization, oesophageal pressure measurements, indirect calorimetry as well as classic mechanical ventilation parameters to characterise the mechanical characteristics of the lung as well as the heart-lung interactions in SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure.

Aim: We aim to evaluate αvβ3 integrin expression in proven COVID-19 infected patients with indicative findings on routine contrast-enhanced CT using [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2. If activated vascular endothelium in the lung parenchyma proceeds ARDS, as frequently observed during COVID-19 infection, imaging αvβ3 integrin expression using PET/CT could have potential as a clinical tool to characterize patients at early stages during disease and guide development of novel treatments targeting the vascular endothelium. Study design: This is a prospective, observational non-randomized pilot study. Maximum 10 patients will undergo a [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT scan and CT-subtraction scan in the same procedure. 10-minutes/bed position static [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT scans of the thorax will be acquired starting at 60 minutes post injection. Study population: Maximum 10 patients from the Infectious Diseases ward with proven COVID-19 infection and indicative pulmonary abnormalities on contrast-enhanced CT (CORADS 4-5) undergo PET/CT scans after injection of 70 μg (200 MBq) [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 and CT-subtraction. Intervention: All patients will undergo a [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT scan, and in the same procedure, a CT-subtraction scan. Primary study objective: The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate and quantitate activation of the endothelium in the lung vasculature using [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT. Secondary study objectives: 1. To assess the spatial correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 uptake and abnormal findings on routine contrast-enhanced CT scan of the chest 2. To assess the spatial correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 and CTS of the lung parenchyma 3. To assess the correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 and laboratory results 4. To explore the correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 uptake and clinical course of disease

The biomarker soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is the soluble form of the cell membrane-bound protein urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), which is expressed mainly on immune cells, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. SPARCOL is a multi-center prospective observational study aiming to investigate if suPAR measured at admission can predict the risk of future complications and mortality in adults patients with Covid-19. The study will include approximately 500 patients and will be one of the largest so far. The study has been registered at Clinical Trials.gov and has been approved by the Institutional Review Board of the University Hospital of Larisa. Consecutive adult patients (≥ 18 years ) who are admitted to the Hospital due to Covid-19 will be screened for inclusion. Participants will undergo sampling of peripheral venous blood, immediately after admission. Blood samples drawn from all patients and EDTA plasma will be stored at -80° C until later measurement. Plasma suPAR levels will be determined using the suPARnostic® ELISA assay (ViroGates, Denmark). The primary endpoint will be the presence of respiratory complications, admission to ICU, and survival at 30 days. Secondary endpoints are also included, such as organ injury, hospital length of stay, and survival. Data analysis will be based on predefined data points on a prospective data collection form.

This is a multi-center, open-label study evaluating the safety of Allocetra-OTS, in up to 24 subjects with severe COVID-19 and respiratory dysfunction. Subjects, who will be identified as suffering from COVID-19, will be recruited. After signing an informed consent by the patient and, within 24+6 hours following the time of eligibility (time 0), on Day 1, eligible recipient subjects will receive single intravenous (IV) administration of investigational product as described below. Subjects will be hospitalized for COVID-19, and later as medically indicated. Following the investigational product (IP) administration (Day 1), subjects will be followed for efficacy and safety assessments through 28 days.

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
