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.

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was first isolated in Wuhan, China in December 2019. It is rapidly spreading worldwide, posing a severe threat to global health. Many therapeutics have been investigated for the treatment of this disease with inconclusive outcomes. Anakinra - an interleukin (IL)-1 receptor antagonist - had showed survival benefits in patients with macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) and sepsis and was investigated for the use in COVID-19 infection with promising outcomes.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has been a world health issue during the last months, affecting mostly countries with a high metabolic risk, like Mexico. Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have an increased risk of any kind of infection as well as an increased mortality risk. Hyperglycemia has been established as an important predictor of mortality in patients with T2D and SARS-CoV-2. The standard treatment of hyperglycemia in hospitalized patients has been basen on insulin schemes, but recently evidence suggest the utility of some other drugs, reducing the risk of hypoglucemia and increasing the probability of a proper metabolic control. The goal of this study is to compare the utility of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) as a combination with insulin on metabolic control and prognosis in hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 and hyperglycemia.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK), and explore the mechanistic and clinical effect of alvelestat (an oral neutrophil elastase inhibitor) orally twice per day for 10 days added to standard of care in adult patients (≥18 years) with COVID-19 respiratory disease.
Gilead Sciences
The primary objective of this study is to characterize the impact of inhaled remdesivir (RDV) on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral load in participants with early stage coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

On March 11 2020 the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak a pandemic. Worldwide, the number of confirmed cases continues to rise, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. In the Netherlands, although the incidence is currently low due to social distancing measures, recurrence of infections is expected once measures are going to be lifted. Although individuals of any age can acquire SARS-CoV-2, adults of middle and older age are at highest risk for developing severe COVID-19 disease. Moreover, recent reports demonstrate that mortality rates rise significantly among patients 60 years and older. Therefore, strategies to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection or to reduce its clinical consequences in vulnerable populations are urgently needed. Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine not only protects against tuberculosis, but also induces protection against various respiratory infections, including those with a viral etiology. We hypothesize that BCG vaccination reduces clinically relevant respiratory tract infections requiring medical intervention, including COVID-19, in vulnerable elderly. The objective of this trial is to determine the impact of BCG vaccination on the incidence of clinically relevant respiratory infections or COVID-19 in vulnerable elderly. The trial is designed as an adaptive multi-center double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial. The attempt is to include 5,200 to 7,000 vulnerable elderly, defined as ≥60 years of age being discharged from hospital in the last 6 weeks, or visiting a medical outpatient clinic, thrombosis care services, or chronic renal replacement departments. Patients with contraindications to BCG vaccination as stipulated in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) and patients with a history of COVID-19 will be excluded. Participants will be randomized between intracutaneous administration of BCG vaccine (Danish strain 1331) or placebo (0.1ml 0.9% NaCl) in a 1:1 ratio.The trial has an adaptive primary endpoint. Based on accrual of the two endpoints, the primary endpoint will be either (a) COVID-19 or (b) clinically relevant respiratory tract infection requiring medical intervention, potentially including COVID-19 episodes. The other will be declared secondary endpoint. Other secondary endpoints include: all SARS-CoV-2 infections (including asymptomatic infections), influenza infection, acute respiratory infection (ARI; all infections regardless of medical intervention), ARI-related hospital admission, COVID-19 related hospital admission, pneumonia, mental, physical and social functioning, serious adverse events and adverse events, and death.
National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)
Access to mental health care by essential workers and the unemployed during the COVID19 pandemic has been challenging. Usual access to mental health care is limited by social distancing, and for many now unemployed due to closures of businesses, insurance is insufficient to cover the costs of mental health care. For these individuals who are at risk for suicide (isolation, unemployment, financial crisis plus past suicide attempts, significant mental health challenges), access to care is crucial and many maybe turning to online and accessible interventions, such as mental health apps and other online resources. Indeed, organizations such as the VA have already created free access mobile applications for mental health in anticipation of this need. Using Psyberguide, the investigators will identify the top ten free apps that address mental health issues and conduct a nation-wide evaluation of these apps with participants who are essential workers and unemployed with risk for suicide. Participants will first be surveyed about which strategies they have used to manage mental health issues, what apps and online tools they have used, and what usability challenges they have faced. The investigators will then ask a random sample of participant to engage in a randomized trial of these top-rated apps for 4 weeks. Apps will be rated on usability, acceptability, feasibility and effectiveness. Results from this trial will be quickly disseminated through several avenues: (1) the UWAC website and ALACRITY Centers network; (2) through CREATIV Lab's partnership with Mental Health America; (3) through the UW Center for Suicide Prevention and Recovery (CSPAR) and partnerships with other suicide focused organizations including Forefront, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, that American Association of Suicidology, the Rocky Mountain MIRECC, and the Defense Suicide Prevention Office and (4) through local partnership with King County and WA state contact tracers.
Ina-Respond
This is a phase 1 clinical trial to verify the safety and efficacy of DW-MSC in COVID-19 patients. A total of 9 subjects are randomly allocated. Subjects who meet the final inclusion and exclusion criteria are randomized to the test groups (low-dose group and high-dose group) or control group (placebo group) in a ratio of 1:1:1. Subjects assigned to the test groups were administered intravenously once with 5 x 10^7cells of DW-MSC for the low-dose group or 1 x 10^8cells for the high-dose group after registration. Subjects assigned to the control group were administered with placebo in the same manner as the test drug (DW-MSC). At this time, all of the existing standard co-treatment are allowed. DW-MSC is adjunct therapy to standard therapy. This clinical trial is a double-blind trial, in which a randomized method will be used. To maintain the double-blindness of the study, statistician who do not participate in this study independently generate randomization code. Subjects will be randomized to the test groups (low-dose group and high-dose group) or the control group (placebo group) in a 1:1:1 ratio. After the completion of the trial, the randomization code will be disclosed after unlocking the database and unblinding procedures. Follow Up period: observed for 28 days after a single administration

In a blinded randomized clinical trial, which will include health workers (doctors, residents, nurses, stretcher-bearers, technicians, hygiene and cleaning) who are members of the health teams that care for patients with COVID-19. Two groups will be formed: the Vitamin D group taking 4,000 IU orally daily for 30 days, the control group being given a placebo during the same time period. Participants will be adults, who have not had COVID-19 disease, and who sign the informed consent. At the beginning of the study anthropometric variables (weight, height, BMI) will be taken, the short medical history can be identified to identify comorbidities, and a fasting blood sample will be taken to determine changes in Vitamin D (25 (OH) Vitamin D), in addition to RT-PCR saliva samples, as well as detection of serum antibodies to determine whether or not they have SARS-CoV-2 disease. Participants will follow each other 45 days. Those with COVID-19 disease will be monitored frequently to determine the course of the disease. At the end of 45 days, new samples will be taken to determine levels of vitamin D and antibodies against SARS-Cov-2.
