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.

COVID-19 can cause myocarditis, which can cause myocardial fibrosis. This has been shown to increase mortality and morbidity among athletes. Several efforts have been made to guide sports participation after COVID-19, but not much scientific evidence is present to back-up those guidelines. The current initiative aims gain a heightened insight in this matter.To identify the presence of fibrosis athletes who recovered from COVID-19 will undergo CMR (Cardiac MRI). All athletes will also undergo echocardiography, 5-day Holtermonitoring among others. This will allow to determine whether differences between those with and those without fibrosis are present. If fibrosis is present, athletes will be offered an implantation of a very small monitoring device that will be able to detect arrhythmias with a much higher sensitivity. Also an exercise echocardiography will be performed, to determine the safety of continuation of athletic efforts. Amendment: Recently myocarditis and pericarditis have also been observed after the administration of mRNA-vaccines, specifically after the second dose. The effect of vaccination on exercise capacity is less clear. To investigate this we propose to amend the inclusion criteria for COVIDEX with "athletes undergoing or having undergone COVID vaccination"

This is a prospective single-center study for the follow-up of SARS-CoV-2 positive patients in the district of Konstanz (LKN). As part of the coronavirus pandemic, patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection are currently being treated in the clinics of the LKN's health network at the Singen (Hegau-Bodensee Clinic) and Konstanz (Konstanz Clinic) locations. So far, there is little data on the long-term effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection. As part of this study, the disease progression of these patients will be monitored. Study objective: Prospective, controlled follow-up observation of SARS-CoV-2 positive patients regarding their secondary diseases and quality of life.
University of Minnesota
Acute treatment of COVID-ARDS with direct topical lung instilled T3 therapy for patients on mechanical ventilation.
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of oral famotidine in symptomatic non-hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID-19. This study is expected to enroll up to 84 patients with mild to moderate symptoms divided into each of the two study arms. Clinical outcomes of the two treatment arms will be compared. This study will be conducted virtually/remotely.
University of Alabama at Birmingham
This is a pilot study designed to demonstrate the feasibility of conducting a larger study of standard plasma therapy in COVID-19 patients.
Augusta University
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of prophylactic mouth rinses in reducing the amount of viruses, specifically SARS-CoV-2 in the oral cavity. This research will guide dental and medical providers on best practices to be performed prior to dental and medical procedures involving the oral cavity.
West China Hospital
This is a phase Ⅱb, single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the recombinant COVID-19 vaccine (Sf9 cells) in the subjects from healthy adults and elderly adults aged 18 years and above (aged 18-59 and 60-85 years) with immunization procedures 0, 21, 42 days and doses 40μg.
McGill University Health Centre/Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre
To evaluate if omalizumab is effective in decreasing mortality in severe hospitalized COVID-19 cases.
Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo di Pavia
The study assesses the efficacy of early administration of hyperimmune plasma in covid-19 patients who are on CPAP or intubated. Efficacy is measured as a 2 point decrease in the WHO scale
Mercy Research
Pregnant women are a vulnerable and high-risk population, as COVID-19 is associated with an increased risk preterm birth, cesarean section, and maternal critical care. This study will examine the factors that impede testing for SARS-CoV-2 (the causative virus among pregnant women), help determine optimal testing strategies by evaluating the necessity of testing for asymptomatic disease in pregnancy, inform prenatal care plans by assessing the full impact of infection, and contribute to a provider's ability to counsel women and create prenatal care plans if they are pregnant or considering pregnancy.
