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.

Hope Biosciences is conducting a research study of an investigational product called autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (abbreviated as HB-adMSCs) to provide immune support against COVID-19. The study purpose is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of five IV infusions of HB-adMSCs in subjects with no signs of COVID-19.
Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria de la Fundación Jiménez Díaz
The investigational medicinal product consists of expanded allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells derived from adipose tissue and administered intravenously. The objective of this project is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the administration of expanded allogeneic adipose tissue adult mesenchymal stem cells, in patients infected with SARS-COV-2 with COVID-19 type complications.

The 2019-20 coronavirus disease, caused by COVID-19, is an ongoing pandemic. The measures in which public health officials quarantine confirmed and isolate symptomatic cases in order to reduce the spread COVID-19 is the common practice used in most countries. However, a significant question remains in regards to the asymptomatically infected individuals, which may propagate the virus and impede infection control. The other question to consider is whether these asymptomatic carriers develop an immune response or continue viral shedding. The purpose of the current study is the evaluate the immune response, i.e developing anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the asymptomatic cases, in a household study design. We plan to evaluate over 1000 patients with positive COVID-19 results and their households.
AUSL Romagna Rimini
The study is configured as a retrospective and prospective observational study. The study will be multi-center and will involve all COVID-19 pneumonia patients treated with canakinumab administered subcutaneously.
Azidus Brasil
This is a proof of concept study to evaluate the efficacy of nitazoxanide (600 mg BID) to treat hospitalized patients with moderate COVID-19.

Diagnostic determination of disease and treatment responses has been limited to qualitative imaging, measurement of serum markers of disease, and sampling of tissue. In each of these instances, there is a built in error either due to sensitivity and specificity issues, clinician interpretation of results, or acceptance of the use of an indirect marker (blood test) of what is happening elsewhere in the body - at the tissue level. The Fleming Method for Tissue and Vascular Differentiation and Metabolism (FMTVDM) using same state single or sequential quantification comparisons [1] provides the first and only patented test (#9566037) - along with the associated submitted patent applications ruled to be covered under #9566037 - that quantitatively measures changes in tissue resulting from inter alia a disease process. This includes inter alia coronary artery disease (CAD), cancer and infectious/inflammatory processes including CoVid-19 pneumonia (CVP) resulting from the metabolic and regional blood flow differences (RBFDs) caused by these diseases. The purpose of this paper is to make clinicians and researchers aware of this proposed method for investigating the prevalence and severity of CVP - in addition to providing rapid determination of treatment response in each patient, directing treatment decisions; thereby reducing the loss of time, money, resources and patient lives.
Attikon Hospital
This study is a phase II, parallel, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial. The present study will aim to address the efficacy and safety of acute administration of triiodothyronine on ICU patients diagnosed with pulmonary infection due to COVID-19 and require mechanical respiratory support or ECMO.

We aim to assess the benefits and harms of low-dose hydrocortisone in patients with COVID-19 and severe hypoxia.

COVID-19 ( known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)) has a highly polymorphic clinical presentation, ranging from pauci-symptomatic infection to severe, potentially complicated forms with acute respiratory distress syndrome or multisystemic organs failure. The picture may be initially severe, or it may progress in two stages, with worsening 7 to 10 days after the first symptoms with an overall case-fatality rate of 3 to 4%. Its management is essentially symptomatic, as no antiviral treatment has so far demonstrated a clinical benefit in this condition. In such a context, healthcare professionals assigned to COVID units will be faced with a heavy workload and emotional burden that could lead to psychological suffering or even burnout and its consequences. We would therefore like to describe, using validated tools, the emotional evolution of the care workers at the Limoges University Hospital and the Esquirol University Hospital faced with this new pandemic infection. An initial and end-of-study evaluation of the caregivers will be carried out concerning their anxiety and depressive state, their personal capacity for resilience and their degree of empathy
