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.

Nursing homes have long faced special challenges in implementing effective infection prevention programs, including limited resources and diagnostic challenges in a frail functionally disabled long-stay population. Advancing our understanding of the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 within these facilities for vulnerable populations deserves urgent and further investigation. Environmental contamination with SARS-CoV-2 that is reported in limited studies highlights the potential importance of transmission between patients, their environment, and healthcare providers via direct and indirect contact. This study seeks to characterize the epidemiology of SARS-CoV- 2 in the NH patient room environment over time and the risk of transmission to near and far environments, with the explicit intent of developing integrated, simple COVID-19 infection prevention strategies that can be reported to and implemented throughout other nursing homes and long-term care facilities.

This is a randomized, open-label, controlled, Phase II proof of concept study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of S-1226 in which hospitalized subjects (n≤30) with moderate severity COVID-19 Bronchiolitis/Pneumonia will be enrolled. The safety and tolerability of S-1226 composed of PFOB with ascending doses of carbon dioxide (4%, 8%, and 12% CO2) administered twice daily will be assessed subjects in hospitalized subjects with moderate severity COVID-19 Bronchiolitis/Pneumonia.

This study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of treatment with related donor Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) matched or haploidentical allogeneic T regulatory cells in patients with COVID 19 induced ARDS. Study treatment will be administered in 1 to 2 doses, with the possibility of a second infusion given 14 days after the initial infusion.

Background: In early 2020, many people thought Cambodia would have a serious COVID-19 outbreak due to the high number of Chinese travelers going to Cambodia. But as of June 14, 2020, only 128 cases of COVID-19 have been identified in the country. Many of these cases have been from people who had traveled in Europe. Researchers want to do antibody tests on blood from a sampling of people in Phnom Penh to learn the infection risks for people in the greater Phnom Penh area. Objective: To estimate the level of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the blood of people living in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Eligibility: Healthy males and females age 18-65 living in Phnom Penh since January 2020. Design: A mobile unit will travel to schools, shopping areas, parks, and pagodas around Phnom Penh. Participants will be screened with questions about their age and where they live. They will have blood taken via fingerstick. About 80 uL of blood will be taken. It will be tested for SARS-CoV-2. This visit will take about 30 minutes. If the test result is positive, participants will be contacted by phone. They will be asked to have a second blood draw. This time, 20 mL of blood will be taken. They can have this visit at their home or in a clinic. This visit will take about 30 minutes. If a participant has an adverse event, the mobile units and at-home units will have the tools needed to aid the participant. If needed, the participant will be sent to a nearby clinic.

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) (previously called 2019-nCOV acute respiratory disease) is caused by SARS-CoV-2, a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus of the coronavirus family. The coronaviruses are largely responsible for the common cold, the 2002 SARS outbreak in Guangdong, China, the 2012 MERS outbreak in Saudi Arabia, and the present COVID-19 outbreak that originated in Wuhan, China. Much has been reported by way of systemic injury caused by COVID-19 affecting the cardiovascular, hepatic, nervous systems. These conditions are likely the result of the virus overwhelming the immune system. For these reasons, the investigators wish to conduct this study using existing medications off-label, and over-the-counter supplements to support the immune response, prevent lasting injury, and hasten the recovery from COVID-19.

The human immune system is enhanced by exposure to infrared radiation with the wavelength of 5 microns to 20 microns. Humans, at normal body temperature, radiate most strongly in the infrared at a wavelength of about 10 microns. Infrared energy sustains life and can be used to treat and prevent diseases, including Covid-19 infections. High temperature within the fever range obtained from infrared radiation causes the killer T-Cells to profilate. The Killer T-Cells improves ones immune system. The high temperature kills the Corona virus. In addition, multi-vitamins and minerals including high doses of Vitamin C, increase one's immune system. Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant, produces hydrogen peroxide and removes free radicals from the body. Pre-clinical trials conducted in Houston, Texas, using Vitality Therapy or the Bible Cure were successful in curing Covid-19 infections. It is therefore possible that Vitality Therapy or the Bible Cure can be used for the successful prevention and treatment of coronavirus infections.

Protocol Summary Study design: Prospective cohort study of pregnant COVID-19 positive patients at delivery. Study Objective: To collect umbilical cord blood and placenta samples at the time of delivery in COVID-19 positive women and evaluate for presence of COVID-19 virus and maternal antibody response. Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria: Women admitted for delivery who are known or suspected COVID-19 positive who have had standard nasal swab testing for COVID-19. Study Procedures: Informed consent for patients will be obtained. Maternal blood will be collected for viral and antibody tests for COVID-19. Following delivery of the neonate, cord blood and placenta samples will be collected and sent for viral PCR and maternal antibody analysis. Neonatal testing will be done as per existing clinical protocol for infants born to PUI/COVID-19 positive women. Statistical Analysis: Statistical analysis for this study will include descriptive analysis and quantitative statistics of findings.
