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 purpose of this clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of Previfenon® (EGCG) to prevent COVID-19, enhance systemic immunity, and decrease the frequency and intensity of selected symptoms when used as pre-exposure chemoprophylaxis to SARS-CoV-2.
Institute of Clinical Chemistry and Pathobiochemistry, Department of Internal Medicine
A sequential combination of different antibodies test against SARS-CoV-2 is evaluated. The protocol included a rapid test and several ELISA tests within a defined cohort of healthcare workers.
Genexine, Inc.
The objective of our study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of COVID-19 preventive DNA vaccine in healthy volunteers.

confirmed cases with COVID-19 will receive ivermectin as a therapeutic option as well as standard of care treatment and will be compared to those that will receive only standard of care ttt
Bayside Health
This is a randomised placebo controlled phase II trial to examine the efficacy of antivirals to treat COVID-19 infection compared to placebo for virological cure and improved clinical outcomes. Individuals will be randomised to the candidate antiviral which in the first instance is Favipiravir or matched placebo and randomisation will be stratified according to whether the participant requires hospitalisation or not. This treatment will be given in addition to the usual standard of care in the participating hospital.

Inflammatory diseases favour the onset of venous thromboembolic events in hospitalized patients. Thromboprophylaxis with a fixed dose of heparin/low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is recommended if concomitant inflammatory disease. In severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) pneumonia an inflammation-dependent thrombotic process occurs and platelet activation may promote thrombosis and amplify inflammation, as indicated by previous experimental evidence , and the similarities with atherothrombosis and thrombotic microangiopathies. Antiplatelet agents represent the cornerstone in the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic arterial thromboembolism, with limited efficacy in the context of venous thromboembolism. The use of purinergic receptor P2Y12 inhibitors in pneumococcal pneumonia may improve inflammation and respiratory function in humans. There are no validated protocols for thrombosis prevention in Covid-19. There is scientific rationale to consider a P2Y12 inhibitor for the prevention of thrombosis in the pulmonary circulation and attenuation of inflammation. This is supported by numerous demonstrations of the anti-inflammatory activity of P2Y12 inhibitors and the evidence of improvement in respiratory function both in human and experimental pathology. Prasugrel could be considered as an ideal candidate drug for Covid-19 patients because of higher efficacy and limited Interactions with drugs used in the treatment of Sars-CoV2. The hypothesis underlying the present study project is that in Covid-19 platelet activation occurs through an inflammation-dependent mechanism and that early antithrombotic prophylaxis in non-critical patients could reduce the incidence of pulmonary thrombosis and respiratory and multi-organ failure improving clinical outcome in patients with SARS-CoV2 pneumonia. The prevention of thrombogenic platelet activity with a P2Y12 inhibitor could be superior to fixed dose enoxaparin alone. The proposed treatment is feasible in all coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, regardless of the treatment regimen (antivirals, anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics), except for specific contraindications.

Patients with COVID-19 associated ARDS and mechanical ventilation have a high mortality. Part of the disease is an activation of the coagulation system which seems to contribute to clotformation in the pulmonary bloodstream. Recently we implemented an algorithm applying higher doses of heparins (LMWH). However, this approach could not inhibit clotformation enough. Bivalirudin could prevent clotformation better and support dissolving existing clots. Therefore, we want to compare 50 patients with the standard treatment with 50 patients under bivalirudin treatment which we normally apply in patients with a HIT-syndrome. Our primary outcome measure is oxygenation reflected as P/F ratio.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the investigational product, SBI-101, in subjects with an infectious etiology of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). SBI-101 is a biologic/device combination product designed to regulate inflammation and promote repair of injured tissue using allogeneic human mesenchymal stromal cells. SBI-101 will be integrated into the renal replacement circuit and patients will be treated for up to 24 hours.
Bandim Health Project
Since the 1960s, studies have shown that oral polio vaccine (OPV) may have beneficial non-specific effects, reducing morbidity and mortality from other infections than polio. Such beneficial non-specific effect have been observed for other live vaccines, including measles, smallpox and BCG vaccine. For BCG, the vaccine for which the mechanism has been studied the most, the effects appear to be mediated through the innate immune system. The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has now caused over 7.1 million cases and >400,000 deaths worldwide. As everywhere else, it is anticipated that in Africa the older part of the population will be at risk of severe COVID-19. OPV is widely used in Africa, but for children. Both polio and coronavirus are positive-strand RNA viruses, therefore it is likely that they may induce and be affected by common innate immune mechanisms. In a randomised trial at the Bandim Health Project in Guinea-Bissau, the investigators will assess the effect of providing OPV vs no vaccine to 3400 persons above 50 years of age. The trial will have the power to test the hypothesis that OPV reduces the combined risk of morbidity admission or death (composite outcome) by at least 28% over the subsequent 6 months.
