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 aim of this study is to determine whether Camostat mesylate reduces SARS-COV-2 associated coagulopathy. Additional aims are to determine the effect of Camostat mesylate on SARS-COV-2 associated myocardial injury, to assess duration of hypoxia or intubation, to evaluate the length of intensive care unit and hospital stay, and assess mortality rates.

The study aims to evaluate MN-166 (ibudilast) in patients with COVID-19 who are at risk of developing acute respiratory distress syndrome. Subjects will be screened, randomly assigned to MN-166 or placebo groups, receive study drug on Days 1-7, and followed up on Day 14 and Day 28.
Aalborg University Hospital
Patients with COVID-19 and hypoxaemic respiratory failure and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are treated with supplementary oxygen as a standard. However, quality of quantity evidence regarding this practise is low. The aim of the HOT-COVID trial is to evaluate the benefits and harms of two targets of partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) in guiding the oxygen therapy in acutely ill adult COVID-19 patients with hypoxaemic respiratory failure at ICU admission.
Centre for Addiction and Mental Health
The current study aims to assess the feasibility, acceptance and clinical outcomes of a practical high-dose LFR protocol, including tapering treatments and symptom-based relapse prevention treatments, in patients with bipolar depression previously responsive to ECT and patients needing urgent treatment due to symptom severity during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Lawson Health Research Institute
Document and evaluate the impact of societal restrictions due to the pandemic on SCI- and ABI-related disability and functional impairments, and the resultant effects on psychological wellbeing, physical wellbeing and quality of life for those with SCI/ABI.
Washington University School of Medicine
This is a small scale pilot study to evaluate if core warming improves respiratory physiology of mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19, allowing earlier weaning from ventilation, and greater overall survival. This prospective, randomized study will include 20 patients diagnosed with COVID-19, and undergoing mechanical ventilation for the treatment of respiratory failure. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion with 10 patients (Group A) randomized to undergo core warming, and the other 10 patients (Group B) serving as the control group who will not have the ensoETM device used. Patients randomized to Group A will have core warming initiated in the ICU or other clinical environment in which they are being treated after enrollment and provision of informed consent from appropriate surrogate or legally authorized representative.
University of Milano Bicocca
This is a monocentric retro-prospective observational study that will be conducted on all COVID19 positive patients hospitalized at the S. Gerardo Hospital in Monza.

Study design Phase 2, double blinded, single-center, 1:1 randomized clinical trial of Chloroquine vs Chloroquine/losartan for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia in non-critically ill subjects
Karolinska Institutet
In this study we cross-reference several nationwide high-quality Swedish registers in order to study risk factors for severe Covid-19 outcomes.
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics of MK-5475 after administration of multiple doses to participants with COVID-19 pneumonia. The primary hypothesis is that MK-5475 when administered to participants with COVID-19 pneumonia and hypoxemia improves arterial oxygenation as measured by the ratio of blood oxygen saturation to fraction of inspired oxygen (SpO2/FiO2 ratio) compared to placebo.
