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.

To evaluate pulmonary changes and the results of a cardiopulmonary rehabilitation protocol (CPRP) in patients after SARS-VOC-2 infection. Clinical trial type study to be conducted between 2020 and 2024 involving clinical-functional cardiopulmonary imaging and blood transcriptome profile: before CPRP (T1), 2 months after CPRP (T2) and 1 year later (T3). Expected results: a) clinical, image and transcriptome changes; b) clinical-functional improvement after CPRP.

Through SARS-CoV-2 IgG testing of PCR positive and negative cases the study will follow the COVID-19 immune response by monitoring the SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody levels over a period of two years. Further, risk factors will be identified by the use of the test-negative design including population controls, allowing comparison of participants with positive and negative tests, and with population controls (triangulation). Special emphasis will be on high risk groups in general and on different occupational, environmental and socio-economic groups in particular. Finally, severity of illness, deaths and the use of health care during will be assessed using national register data from Telemark and Agder.

This study project includes a single-arm phase 2 study and a parallel cohort study, enrolling patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.

In the current proposal, the investigators aim to investigate the virological and clinical effects of chloroquine treatment in patients with established COVID-19 in need of hospital admission. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to standard of care or standard of care with the addition of therapy with chloroquine.

SARS-CoV-2 spreads rapidly throughout the world. A large epidemic would seriously challenge the available hospital capacity, and this would be augmented by infection of healthcare workers (HCW). Strategies to prevent infection and disease severity of HCW are, therefore, desperately needed to safeguard continuous patient care. Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is a vaccine against tuberculosis, with protective non-specific effects against other respiratory tract infections in in vitro and in vivo studies, and reported morbidity and mortality reductions as high as 70%. Furthermore, in our preliminary analysis, areas with existing BCG vaccination programs appear to have lower incidence and mortality from COVID191. The investigators hypothesize that BCG vaccination can reduce HCW infection and disease severity during the epidemic phase of SARS-CoV-2.

The study investigators hypothesize that the pneumonia arising in patients with COVID-19 is largely of immunopathological origin. The investigators will therefore seek to define the immune activation phenotype of patients in respiratory distress and to see if this immune signature is predictive of mortality. Finally, the investigators will look for overproduced inflammatory mediators to identify potential therapeutic targets.

This is an observational study, meaning that no interventions is tested, to determine incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 in different clinical sites in Brazil in several age groups. The study aims to assess baseline number of infected participants and perform a follow-up along two years to determine the new cases occurring among participants during the period. All participants will collect blood samples to get more details on the immune response.
University of Giessen
Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been identified as an independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality. The present study aims to investigate the incidence of AKI and renal recovery of inpatients diagnosed with COVID-19.

This study is being conducted to study the use and application of a point-of-care (POC) Covid-19 test developed by Spartan BioSciences and recently approved for clinical use by Health Canada. Phase I of this study will determine the best route for the swabs (nasal, throat, or both), and to determine if this POC test results are comparable to the standard core-lab test results.

Patients presenting with the coronavirus-2019 disease (COVID-19) have a very high risk of cardiovascular adverse events, including death from cardiovascular causes. Unfortunately, there are no reliable statistics on the frequency and severity of these complications during the index hospitalization. Moreover, the long-term cardiovascular outcomes of these patients are entirely unknown. The investigators aim to perform a registry of patients who have undergone a diagnostic nasopharyngeal swab for SARS-CoV-2 and determine their long-term cardiovascular outcomes.
