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.

This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of ADM03820 administered as IM injections in healthy adults for the prevention of COVID-19.

The COVID-RASi study is an international randomized clinical trial that will evaluate the potential benefit of angiotensin modulators on clinical outcomes, in COVID-19 patients. The purpose of this study is to determine if renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (RASi), with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB), has a beneficial effect in patients with COVID-19 infections, by reducing ICU admission, ventilator requirement or death. We would also like to determine if there are differences between ACEi and ARB therapeutic treatments. With the increasing potential of long COVID symptoms, at the 1 year follow up, a primary endpoint will be the quality of life of study participants, as assessed by ongoing symptoms and/or the standardized questionnaires.

Ultrasounds are usually done by a specially trained health professional in the hospital or emergency department (ED) setting. Using a novel single-probe device, the ultrasound can be plugged into an iOS / Android device. The purpose of this research is to assess the usefulness of lung ultrasound imaging, performed by the patient in the home setting for the management of the COVID-19 disease using this novel highly-portable ultrasound.

This double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel-group phase 2/3 study will study the utility of nebulized furosemide for pulmonary inflammation in Intubated, mechanically ventilated Patients with COVID-19.

Given the current lack of an effective drug or therapy, a clinical trial to better understand the safety and efficacy of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) in COVID-19 patients is urgently needed. The goal of this trial is to study the efficacy and safety of TPE therapy in subjects with moderate to severe COVID-19 by determining the morbidity and mortality after TPE therapy.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of HFB30132A when it is given by intravenously to healthy participants. Blood tests will be done to check how much HFB30132A is in the bloodstream and how long the body takes to eliminate it. Participation may include up to ten visits to the study center.

This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability and Pharmacokinetic Properties of Niclosamide Injectable (DWRX2003) in healthy volunteers.

This is a phase II study to test adenosine efficacy for down-regulation of the overwhelming inflammation of COVID-19 in the lungs as reflected by clinical recovery of lung function; resolution of clinically relevant markers of lung function, and resolution of systemic markers of inflammation and coagulation.

AIM: We propose an innovative approach using Lifelight® smart technology that will enable the continued provision of high level patient care at the same time as reducing pressure on nursing and equipment resources. METHOD : Lifelight® is a computer program ("app") which can be used on smart devices that contain a camera. It is able to measure all of the vital signs by measuring very small changes in skin colour that occur each time the heart beats. This means that it does not need to touch the patient. We believe this could be an effective way of measuring vital signs, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic when prevention of cross-contamination between patients is essential. Patients are also likely to be reassured by a contactless approach. During this study, we will recruit two groups of people who are hospitalised with an acute illness. The first group will be people expected to have abnormal blood oxygen levels such as those with acute respiratory problems including those with COVID-19. The second group will be people expected to have abnormal blood pressure. These Lifelight vital signs will be compared to measurements from standard clinical equipment. The exact number of participants recruited will depend on how quickly the app "learns" and how many of the vital signs collected are outside of the normal range. For the first group of participants, we will use a camera to collect data about the changes in their face and use this to teach the app how to measure blood oxygen level and also to check how well the app measures blood oxygen level, heart rate and respiratory rate. For the second group of participants, we will use a camera to collect data about the changes in their face to check how well the app measures blood pressure and respiratory rate. All of the data will be kept secure and participants will not be able to be identified.

Randomized, double-blind prospective trial to test the efficacy and acceptability of therapeutic, antiseptic mouth rinses to inactivate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) in saliva of COVID-19 positive patients aged 18-65 years old. All mouthrinses are commercially available and will be used according to on-label instructions. Patients will be randomized to a mouthrinse and will be asked to give a saliva sample immediately before and after a one minute mouthwash. Saliva samples will be collected from patients at 15 minute intervals thereafter up to an hour (15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes). The samples will be stored and used for real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) detection of viral SARS-CoV-2 RNA and viral infectivity assays. Patients will also complete a short-survey on the taste and experience of using the mouthwash. This study involves 480 subject participants and one, 75-90 minute visit.
