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.

Background: Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19, or SARS-CoV-2) is a serious public health problem, and genetics may play a role in how serious the illness becomes in certain people. Genes are the instructions that our body uses to grow and develop. Variations in our genes can cause medical conditions and may be the reason why some people get sicker than others. Objective: This study aims to learn more about the genetic contributions to the severity of COVID-19. We hope to use this information to develop therapies that reduce the severity of COVID-19 symptoms in some people. Eligibility: Anyone located in the United States who has tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection may be eligible to join (including NIH staff). Design: Participants will complete a questionnaire about their health history and COVID-19 symptoms. Participants will give a blood or saliva sample. It will be about 2 tablespoons of blood, or we will send a saliva collection kit. Researchers will use this blood or saliva sample to study the participant s DNA. The data about participants genes will be stored in a large database. The database will be shared with other qualified researchers who are trying to learn about COVID-19. Participants names and other personal details will not be shared. Instead, the data will be labeled with a code. Participants may be contacted by study team members for up to a year after they join the study.
Kirby Institute
COHIVE is an observational cohort nested in four antiretroviral therapy research studies (ADVANCE - NCT03122262; D²EFT - NCT03017872; DolPHIN2 - NCT03249181 and NAMSAL-ANRS12313 - NCT02777229). COHIVE will include participants who are possible COVID-19 cases with symptoms or confirmed COVID-19 cases, and participants who agree to have a serology testing for SARS-CoV-2 regardless of COVID-19 history.
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Background: People who get infected with COVID-19 have an unpredictable risk to worsen and die. This makes it hard to decide who can quarantine at home and who should be treated at a hospital. Researchers think the risk may be related to how a person s B and T cells respond to the virus. B and T cells are the major components of a person s immune response. B and T cells responding to the virus with a favorable pattern may lead to recovery, and this favorable pattern may be helpful to establish. If people in a vaccine trial get this same favorable pattern when responding to a vaccine, this may be a useful early signal that the vaccine will be successful. Objective: To examine how immune cells respond to COVID-19 infection. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have a confirmed or suspected COVID-19 infection or had COVID-19 in the past. Also, healthy donors with no suspected COVID-19 infection Design: Participants will be screened with medical record review. Participants will be tested with a research assay to determine who was infected with COVID-19 and who was not. This test will be used to understand research results, not to advise patients. Participants with active infection must be isolated, usually in a hospital. Other participants may give blood samples at NIH or at their local doctor s office or lab. Participants may give blood samples up to three times a week for a total of ten times, and may also give blood samples after starting a vaccine trial. Participants will be contacted by phone or email every 2 months for up to 2 years.

Since December 2019, a new agent, the coronavirus SARS-Cov-2, has spread from China to the rest of the world causing an international epidemic of respiratory diseases called COVID-19. Oise was one of the first clusters in France, with more than 4,000 confirmed cases. A significant proportion (80%) of patients with COVID-19 are ambulatory. However, few data are available for this particular population in France. Thus, few clear recommendations are available. We propose to conduct a large cohort of observation of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients on an ambulatory basis in the Oise region. This observatory will make it possible to describe the epidemiological characteristics and initial management of COVID-19 patients and to identify early severity factors.

This a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to determine if primary prophylaxis with hydroxychloroquine in healthcare workers reduces symptomatic COVID-19 infection. Healthcare workers will be randomized at a 1:1 allocation between intervention and placebo arms and followed for 12 weeks. This study will enroll up to 1,700 participates in Lafayette, Louisiana. The primary outcome will number of symptomatic COVID-19 infections. Secondary endpoints included number of days healthcare workers are absent from work and rate of severe infection.

ACCESS enables individuals to contribute to critical research, via an iOS and Android smartphone mobile application. ACCESS combines patient reported outcomes, data from wearable devices and real-world data (such as claims, EHRs, etc), with an opt-in to participate in current and future studies for diagnostics, treatments and vaccines. The data that people share can be quickly and anonymously matched to research studies, providing researchers with a foundational framework for dynamic research at scale and participants a way to be personally matched and prescreened for future research.
Fundacion Infant
This is a multi-center prospective study that aims to investigate the clinical and immunologic impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women and neonates. The goal is to recruit 200 SARS-CoV-2 infected pregnant women starting at 24 weeks of gestation in a neonatal network of 45.000 birth a year. Clinical data will be collected from women and neonates. Upper airways samples will be obtained from both for bio-markers investigation. Finally, maternal and umbilical cord serum and human milk will be obtained for antibody assessment.
