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.

Since March 2020, the SARS-CoV type coronavirus infection (SARS-CoV-2; nCoV19; COVID-19) is considered pandemic. As early as April 2020, the World Health Organization recommended the implementation of mass screening of populations, with the aim of identifying cases and contacts and controlling viral spread. Since the end of lock-down on May 11, 2020,the screening policy has been intensified to fight against COVID-19. Virological tests by RT-PCR are thus accessible to all, without a prescription and reimbursed by health insurance. The French government has also set a quantitative target of 1 million tests per week. In order to meet this target, the number of sampling centers has been increased (mobile structures, etc.). Screening tests are currently carried out using a nasopharyngeal swab analyzed by RT-PCR for the detection of viral RNA. This type of sample has several technical and logistic constraints. It must be carried out by personnel who are authorized and trained in this procedure and in appropriate hospital hygiene practices. It exposes the sampling personnel to possible contamination through nasopharyngeal secretions or coughing that may occur during sampling. With the increase in screening, there are sometimes insufficient numbers of sampling personnel and there is significant market pressure for swabs and virological transport media. In addition, these swabs are uncomfortable or even painful for the patient, which could imply a reluctance to be screened. They are also complicated in children, whether they are rhino- or oropharyngeal. An alternative to the nasopharyngeal swab, which is the subject of this project, would be to have one or more reliable sampling methods that are less restrictive than the nasopharyngeal swab ("gold standard"). Thus, we propose to test and compare the results obtained by molecular biology techniques on nasopharyngeal, salivary and buccal swabs.
Centre Hospitalier Sud Essonne
The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of COVID-19 among the workers of our hospital and the factors that are likely to influence this prevalence. It must be underlined that our hospital is settled in two towns and both hospital sites had different missions regarding the admissions of COVID-19-infected patients.

Recently published studies could demonstrate that detection of specific biomarkers in breath could be applied for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2.

Although the direct damage from the viruses contributes to the initiation of the disease, the cytokine storm caused by COVID-19 plays a vital role in the development of acute lung injury and adult respiratory distress syndrome. IL-6, a kind of pleiotropic cytokine, is expressed by immune cells such as DC, monocytes, macrophages, B cells, and subsets of activated T cells, as well as by non-immune cells like fibroblasts, epithelial cells, and keratinocytes

This study objective is to collect tear and blood samples from individuals with positive SARS-COV2 diagnosis and test those samples for the presence of various SARS-COV2 viral antigens and autoantibodies.

Lung ultrasound (LUS) has also been shown to be more accurate than chest x-ray in identifying pulmonary consolidation and pulmonary edema, both of which are found in patients with COVID. The investigators hypothesize implementation of LUS by hospitalists in the management of suspected or diagnosed patients with COVID-19 will reduce the need for Chest CT and chest x-ray, thereby conserving PPE, reducing risk of transmission to technicians and conserving the resources of radiology services that would otherwise be overwhelmed by patients with COVID-19 in need of chest imaging. Using the methods of implementation science, the investigators propose to respond to the urgent need for rapid implementation of LUS by hospitalists in management of adult patients hospitalized for COVID. Aim 1a: Using a rapid-cycle weekly Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle and Rapid Iterative RE-AIM, to optimize the implementation of LUS by adult hospitalists in the management of COVID-19 patients in a pilot study Aim 1b: Evaluate this pilot implementation of LUS by adult hospitalists using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework.

Covid-19 is associated with the onset of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies; in a majority of patients, neutralizing antibodies are detected. However, the long-term persistence of such protective antibodies is not known. The investigators will explore patients with a proven Covid-19 (positive PCR) 6 and 12 months after the diagnosis to determine whether neutralizing antibodies are still detected. The investigators will determine whether this persistance varies according to - the severity of the Covid-19 - a treatment by steroids during the covid-19. This will help to anticipate whether a second wave of infection is possible in a non-naive population.

All health care workers at the Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care at UMC Ljubljana will be tested for SARS-CoV2 with nasal swab test and blood withdrawal for SARS-CoV2 antibodies. At the same time a questionnaire with epidemiological anamnesis, risky contacts and the use of personal protective equipment will be fulfilled.
