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.

The aim of the study is to identify symptom-level intervention targets for depression related to the COVID-19 outbreak. First, we will assess centrality indices of the network of depression symptoms plus mechanism variables derived from the metacognitive model of psychopathology measured at a period of strict social distancing protocols (T1). Then, we will examine whether change in the most central symptom and metacognitive variables are more related to overall symptom reduction from the period of strict (T1) to a period of lifted social distancing protocols (T2) three months later. On the basis of the results, interventions can be suggested that protect the general public against increased psychological suffering and dysfunction during society's handling of pandemics.

Newborns and infants receive passive natural immunity through maternal antibodies present in breastmilk to fight infections caused by viruses such as the COVID-19, until they develop active immunity by illness or vaccination. Such immunity will become the main stay for preventing future waves of COVID-19 epidemics. The high COVID-19 mortality among African Americans is ascribed partly to compromised immune status associated with comorbidity. Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) is the effective low-cost natural strategy for building immunity right from birth. African Americans record the lowest EBF rates and also lack workplace support. This intervention includes a 10-hour course extracted from 90-hour CLC online program, sufficient to prepare physicians to partner with certified lactation consultant (CLC) to provide their patients comprehensive COVID-19 breastfeeding guidelines, training, and support to afford their babies the benefits of breastmilk antibodies, the best line of defense against COVID-19, until availability of safe vaccines. The Breastfeeding Report Card indicates slow improvements in overall breastfeeding rates with persisting disparities. Improving EBF rates can contribute to increased COVID-19 immunity among infants. Preliminary data in Nashville indicates excellent breastfeeding benefit knowledge and intent, but limited training to succeed. Hospital staff encourage breastfeeding but routinely offer formula at birth. Most physicians who provide prenatal care do not actively promote breastfeeding nor routinely offer CLC referral. This single action by physicians can halt routines that compromise successful EBF. The program long-term goal is to prepare obstetricians to actively promote comprehensive breastfeeding among African American mothers. The immediate objective is to develop and evaluate feasibility and effectiveness of an intervention designed to increase COVID-19 breastfeeding guideline adherence and improve EBF skills and rates among African American mothers. The rationale is that mothers who receive physician prenatal encouragement and CLC referral will make confident informed decisions, adopt COVID-19 breastfeeding guidelines, safely meet their EBF goals, and provide their infants with appropriate antibodies. The expected outcome is that patient participants will adhere to COVID-19 breastfeeding guidelines and record 3-month EBF rate 60 percent or greater.

The study aim is to collect and analyze data of potential Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) that could be used for discriminating between patients with and without COVID-19 or with high-risk for COVID-19 by DiaNose breath test. up to 300 subjects will be enrolled to the study ( 200 COVID-19 suspected and 100 healthy volunteers in two clinical sites (1 in Israel and 1 in US). DiaNose system is an electronic nose device that can "smell" diseases in the exhaled breath of patients in real time. This approach is non-invasive, simple and save. The DiaNose prototype system consists the following elements: A Soft Tube connected to a Sensors Chamber - The soft tube is made of medical grade silicon. The subject blows air into the tube for a few seconds and the exhaled air is directed through the sensors chamber. This unit is for single use. • Sensors Reading Unit- a multi used unit for sensors signals measurement. The Sensor Reading Unit is connected to a Laptop that is used to activate and save the test measurements.

In this project, we aimed at developing new "Ready-to-Use" inhalable forms of HCQ that can be used directly through nebulization or using dry powder inhalers (DPIs). These inhaled forms would allow a simple and direct delivery of the drug (HCQ) specifically towards the throat and the lung which are the main sites for the COVID-19 viral infection. Hence, the drug can be available at higher concentrations in the throat and lungs as compared with the currently used treatment protocols, while minimizing the drug systemic concentrations and its presence in other body organs, and thus enhancing the drug efficacy with significantly limiting its side effects. Besides, using inhalable forms can be more convenient to patients suffering from gastrointestinal complications from the disease that can limit the absorption of oral forms. Moreover, the proposed inhalable forms are designed in such a way to hide the drug from the immune system (confer stealth characteristics) using FDA-approved excipients to minimize/avoid any immune response towards the drug as was noted towards it in its oral form that's used in the treatment protocol of COVID-19. In addition, the inhaled formulations will be designed to maintain the overall simplicity and scalability of the preparation which is critical during this urgent pandemic situation. The cost of the final formulation is also taken into consideration since the drug is intended for treatment of thousands or probably millions of patients around the world including countries with limited economic capabilities.

The Lille University Hospital developped a research objective common to all the services which took care of patients, "suspected patient", "possible case", "probable case" or "confirmed case" infected with SARS-CoV-2 by constituting a prospective and a retrospective observational cohort which allowed pooling and sharing the resources and data collected. In the next two years the prospective cohort will allow to continue inclusions in a standardized way mainly for the constitution of a negative control group (excluded cases), to collect biological samples which had not been collected in the retrospective cohort so that the pathophysiology of the COVID-19 will be better apprehended as for example the inflammatory response to the viral infection. Finally in case of a second epidemic wave in the Hauts De France, it seems essential to have a defined research protocol which had already received all the necessary authorizations to guarantee cutting-edge (or quality ) research in a center like the Lille University Hospital.The aim objective of this study is to identify predictive factors of mortality to day 28 infection to SARS-CoV-2 for patients under medical care for the COVID-19 in the Lille University Hospital thanks to the constitution of an epidemiological, clinical, biological, immunological, genetic, microbiological, anatomopathologic, radiological, therapeutic database and so record the results of functional exploration exams.

The coronavirus outbreak is a stressful event for the whole population. Confinement measures are protective against the risk of dissemination of the virus, but they can also lead to several psychological symptoms. In children, a study in China has reported about 20% of depressive or anxious troubles in school-age children after a 4-week period of confinement. In France, confinement lasted about 8 weeks. School resumed on May 11th for primary school children and on June 2nd for secondary school children. In this survey, we aim at exploring the psychological status of these children and the impact on their schooling, for better understanding, support and prevention. Through this online questionnaire, we also aim at giving some psycho-education advices. Finally, we could identify some subgroups of children particularly vulnerable, and organise some specific support for them in coming months.

This study is intended to address the association between vitamin D status and seroconversion to SARS-CoV-2 in healthy young adults. The primary aim of the study is to determine the rates of 'silent' seroconversion rates, consistent with asymptomatic transmission of SARS-CoV-2, in a young healthy adult population with a wide spread of vitamin D concentrations. The secondary aims of this study are to explore: 1. Any effect of vitamin D status on symptomatic illness. 2. The background 'point' prevalence and subsequent rate of increase in seropositivity for SARS-CoV-2 in healthy young adults. 3. The individual reductions in seropositivity to SARS-CoV-2 over time, and changes in seropositivity in a defined young adult population over time. 4. Where salivary Immunoglobulin A (IgA) may be used to provide an alternative/ complementary serological method 5. The effect (if any) of vitamin D supplementation on seroconversion rates stratified by: i) level of baseline vitamin D 'deficiency/ insufficiency/ sufficiency' status; ii) extent of BMI-defined normal/overweight/obesity cut-offs and iii) gender.
