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 purpose of this study is to validate the use of a rapid, at home, point-of-care (POC) SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody test in high risk healthcare workers. Additionally, we would like to evaluate the incidence of seroconversion in this high-risk population and to identify possible candidates for convalescent plasma donation for therapy/prophylaxis.

On Dec 31, 2019, a number of viral pneumonia cases were reported in China. The virus causing pneumonia was then identified as a new coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. Since this time, the infection called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread around the world, causing huge stress for health care systems. To diagnose this infection, throat and nose swabs are taken. Unfortunately, the results often take more than 24 hrs to return from a laboratory. Speeding diagnosis up would be of great help. This study aims to look at the breath to find signs that might allow clinicians to diagnose the coronavirus infection at the bedside, without needing to send samples to the laboratory. To do this, the team will be using a machine called a BreathSpec which has been adapted to fit in the hospital for this purpose.

The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infects host-cells via ACE2-receptors, which leads to pneumonia (COVID-19) but also can lead to myocarditis (acute myocardial injury) and chronic damage to the cardiovascular system. Therefore, cardiovascular protection may be necessary when treating patients with COVID-19 infection. This may especially be necessary in patients with cardiovascular diseases, risk factors, and co-medication.
Karolinska University Hospital
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and resulting COVID-19 disease causes a substantial burden on healthcare systems. Little is known about how the infection spreads within healthcare. In order to design control strategies, knowledge of the presence of viral nucleic acid and whether an immune response to the virus has been mounted is needed. The purpose of this study is to determine whether personnel and patients/clients in healthcare in Region Stockholm have a currrent SARS-CoV-2 infection or have had an infection. This information will be used to understand how the infection spreads in healthcare, to explore the association with sick-leave among personnel, and to plan high-quality and safe care. Healthcare providers and organizations participating in the study from the greater Stockholm region include the following: Karolinska University Laboratory, Karolinska University Hospital; Intensive Care Unit, Karolinska University Hospital; SciLifeLab; KTH Royal Institute of Technology; Roo Home Healthcare Services (Roo Hemtjänst och Vård); Health Care Services Stockholm County (SLSO); Region Stockholm; Southern Hospital (Södersjukhuset); Danderyd Hospital; Capio St Göran Hospital; Södertälje Hospital; Tiohundra AB; Ersta Hospital, Sweden; and St Eriks Eye Hospital (St Eriks Ögonsjukhus).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of venous thromboembolism in a regional health care system (Region Östergötland, Sweden) before and during the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. In a retrospective observational study, we will review patient data, diagnostic data and treatment data over a three-month period since the onset of the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. This data will be compared with data from the corresponding time frame during the years 2015 to 2019.

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of chest computed tomography (CT) in detecting signs of viral pneumonia has become clear from the literature. However, the increased patient flow creates an additional pressure on CT centers. We believe, the use of chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help to test patients for CОVID-19 when CT scan is not available. Lung MRI may be useful in routing a patient in a difficult epidemiological situation.

This project is based in the implementation of a combined monitoring system (technological solutions and medical visits) in survivors of the critical illness due to the infectious disease by COVID-19. The main objective of the project is to characterize the Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) and detect early needs for specific treatment.

The Covid-19 has, in a few weeks, made the world tremble: the number of deaths (mainly elderly and / or co-morbid) continues to increase, the confinement causes the collapsing of the economy and the decline of relationships inter-human. The data are too fragmented and the disease too recent to know its repercussions on the 3 million French people who have or have had cancer. The investigators would like, in 3 populations: * patients in treatment, * or in follow-up and * health personnel, to constitute a large prospective and longitudinal database of data: i / serological: humoral response, test performance, monitoring of serum immunoglobulin levels , reinfection threshold,…; ii / clinical: incidence, severity, mortality and their favorable factors impact of cancer treatment on Covid-19 infection and modification of the quality of oncological care in the context. In parallel, on a more limited sample of establishments, it will be : * appreciate the economic and functional repercussions, * will try to find out about the infection modalities in patients and health personnel and * will appreciate the levels of anxiety and depression to which health staff are subject.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) SARS-CoV-2, name of the Coronavirus Group of international Committee on taxonomy of viruses, is an emerging virus from the family of coronaviridae, responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. This infection can progress to viral pneumonia, and in 3% of cases up to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) which conditions the prognosis of the disease. Due to its unusual clinical presentation with a risk of sudden deterioration on the 8th day as a result of possible hyperinflammatory response, the respiratory impairment of COVID is unique and many questions remain unanswered concerning its evolution once the acute phase has passed. Knowledge of the evolution of pulmonary involvement, particularly in patients requiring hospitalization, can help reduce the morbidity linked to the persistent abnormalities identified by establishing early therapeutic management. It can also provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of pulmonary involvement in the acute phase. Current data regarding the acute phase of COVID-19 suggest that persistent abnormalities remain distant from this infection at all levels of the respiratory system: gas exchange, perfusion, ventilatory mechanics, and interstitial lung disease. The main objective is to characterize persistent gas exchange anomalies 4 months after documented COVID-19 pneumonia, resulting in oxygen desaturation and requiring hospitalization.
