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.

The COVID-19 disease outbreak is a historic event that has challenged medical systems in the United States. Currently, most reports of confirmed cases rely on the testing of symptomatic patients. These estimates of confirmed cases miss individuals who have recovered from infection, with mild or no symptoms, and individuals with symptoms who have not been tested due to the limited availability of tests. We are conducting serology testing within the community for SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies through a serologic test could give insight into past COVID-19 infections within our community.
Chronomics Limited
The objective of this study is to compare the Chronomics test against the NPS tests and protocol currently in use to demonstrate the efficacy of Chronomics' approach. The principal question is: Does the Chronomics saliva based test perform as well as the NPS NHS test?

COVID-19, spreading rapidly all over the world, causes serious morbidity and mortality. In severe COVID-19 infections, after pulmonary inflammation, cardiovascular organ failure, cytokine storm, hemophagocytosis, septic shock, develops due to uncontrolled hypoxia, and isolated organ failure turns into multi-organ failure. It is noteworthy that it causes lymphopenia in patients. In the studies, the blood levels of certain inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1β,interleukin-6 and TNF-α, were evaluated. In addition, blood values of a limited number of cytokines were investigated similarly in a limited number of studies published in our country.

It is noteworthy that it causes lymphopenia in patients. In studies conducted, the effects of Covid-19 on the immune system were evaluated with limited parameters. In addition, no study evaluating the effect of this disease on the immune system has been published in our country.
University of Minnesota
Purpose: - To determine the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in tears - To determine SARS-CoV-2 receptors in tear production system
Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of brainstem dysfunction in critically ill ventilated and deeply sedated patients hospitalized in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for a SARS-CoV-s2 infection.
Sciensano
Background: Each Belgian winter season is characterized by a wave of influenza like and respiratory symptoms. Especially, the elderly people are more vulnerable to be infected by influenza, but also RSV. The recent COVID-19 pandemic and eventually a next wave, will increase the prevalence of influenza like and respiratory symptoms. Method: A multicentre non-commercial cohort study will be conducted in nursing home staff and residents during the Winter season 2020-2021. Objectives: Primary objective is the difference in incidence of influenza like and respiratory symptoms between cases (cases have evidence of past infection with SARS-CoV-2, referred to as Covid +) and controls (controls have no evidence of previous infection and are referred to as Covid -). The primary outcome analysis as well as the secondary outcome analyses will use two strata: nursing home staff and nursing home residents. The secondary objectives are the difference in incidence of COVID-19, influenza, RSV infections confirmed by PCR between cases and controls, to define a correlate of protection in the covid + group against re-infection with SARS-CoV-2 based on the study of the pre-existing antibody profile (antigen specificity, antibody type and antibody level) at the time of re-exposure. A multiplex assay will be used to assess the antibody profile. Finally, to study the COVID-19 disease severity (7 point WHO ordinal scale, this includes a.o. hospitalisation, mechanical ventilation need and ICU admission, mortality) based on the presence/absence of pre-existing antibodies and the pre-existing antibody profile. For other respiratory infections we will study the need for hospitalization and mortality.
Canadian VIGOUR Centre
While many people with COVID-19 suffer from respiratory disease, there is growing evidence that the virus also affects other organs. The purpose of this study is to better understand the effects of COVID-19 on the lungs and other organs. The study investigators have developed new techniques in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to scan the lungs, heart, brain and liver. The study investigators hope to learn more about how the virus causes inflammation in these organs and how this inflammation changes over time as people recover from COVID-19 illness. The study aims to enroll 228 people in Alberta. Participants will undergo one or more MRI scans and have blood testing at one or more time points to assess for inflammation, kidney function, liver function and possible heart injury. Participants will also undergo testing to assess sense of smell, cognition (thinking and memory), spirometry (breathing test for lung function) and and exercise tolerance (walk test). The study investigators hope this study will help us learn more about the long-term risks of COVID-19 disease.
Groupe d'Etude sur le Risque d'Exposition des Soignants aux Agents Infectieux
The study objectives were to assess 1/the immune status of healthcare professionals with suggestive symptomatology of Covid-19 infection and 2/the sensitivity and specificity of AAZ rapid test by comparing it with a serological ELISA test. An open-label, monocentric, prospective, non-randomized study, is conducted, including 50 hospital healthcare professionals and 50 private health professionals. Knowledge of serostatus will achieve the implementation of a strategy of management of patients according to specific immunity of health professionals
Hôpital Raymond Poincaré
Olfactory and gustatory disorders are prevalent symptoms in European COVID-19 patients. This study aimed to detect these disturbances among positive COVID-19 patients (symptom not initially highlighted by the patient and not sought by caregivers) in order to allow early management of olfactory and gustatory dysfunction.
