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.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease responsible for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The infection is highly contagious requiring restrictive and stressful measures for patients, family members and ICU healthcare providers. To avoid contagion, patient isolation has become the rule. For patients, these measures add stress to the ICU environment and deprive them of unrestricted family visits. Family members are not only left with fear but also many unanswered questions. In end-of-life situations, many family members are unable to say good-bye and unable to provide support to their loved-one throughout the process. The impact of exclusion or limited inclusion certainly needs to be explored. Moreover, ICU caregivers are having to face new challenges and to work in a unknown situation, juggling with both professional issues such as increased workload, working longer hours and safety issues, and personal issues such as child care and transport as well as family transmission of the virus. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate that the COVID-19 pandemic, as compared to seasonal flu and community acquired pneumonia, significantly increases post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in family members of critically ill patients. PTSD-related symptoms will be assessed in family members using the IES-R (impact of event scale revised) during a telephone interview 90 days after ICU discharge. The IES-R is a 22-item self-report measure that assesses subjective distress caused by traumatic events. It will be compared across the three groups (COVID-19, FLU and CAP).

The purpose of this study is to investigate if a brief online-delivered cognitive-behavioral intervention can reduce the degree of dysfunctional worry related to the Covid-19 pandemic, compared to a wait-list control condition.

The COVID-19 pneumonia has grown to be a global public health emergency since patients were first detected in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, which spread quickly to worldwide and presented a serious threat to public health. It is mainly characterized by fever, dry cough, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties. Some patients may develop into rapid and deadly respiratory system injury with overwhelming inflammation in the lung. Currently, no specific drugs or vaccines are available to cure the patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. Hence, there is a large unmet need for a safe and effective treatment for COVID-19 pneumonia patients, especially the critically ill cases. The significant clinical outcome and well tolerance was observed by the adoptive transfer of allogenic MSCs. We proposed that the adoptive transfer therapy of MSCs might be an ideal choice to be used. We expect to provide new options for the treatment of critically ill COVID-19 pneumonia patients and contribute to improving the quality of life of critically ill patients.

Trial design. Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in a catchment population of 2,020,860 age-appropriate subjects in the state of Buenos Aires and 235,000 in the city of Buenos Aires. Institutions. Hospitals San Juan de Dios, Simplemente Evita, Dr. Carlos Bocalandro, Evita Pueblo, Sanatorio Antartida, Hospital Central de San Isidro, Clinica Olivos in the state of Buenos Aires with 38 regional and town hospitals acting as referral centers, and Hospital Militar Central, Sanatorio de Los Arcos, Hospital Universitario CEMIC, Sanatorio Sagrado Corazon, Sanatorio Finochietto, Sanatorio Anchorena, Centro Gallego, and in the city of Buenos Aires in Argentina. Study population. Subjects >= 75 years of age irrespective of presenting comorbidities or between 65-74 years of age with at least one comorbidity (hypertension, diabetes, obesity, chronic renal failure, and COPD) who experience the following signs and symptoms for less than 48 hours at the time of screening for SARS CoV2 by RT-PCR: (a) a temperature >=37.5°C and/or unexplained sweating and/or chills and (b) at least one of the following: dry cough, dyspnea, fatigue, myalgia, anorexia, sore throat, loss of taste and/or smell, rhinorrhea. Subjects consenting to screening will be tested by reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (RT-PCR) for SARS-CoV-2 in a nasopharyngeal and an oropharyngeal swab and invited to participate when RNA for the virus is detected. Intervention. Eligible, consenting patients will be randomized using an electronic system to receive 250 ml of convalescent plasma with an IgG titer against SARS-CoV2 spike (S) protein >1:1,000 (COVIDAR IgG, Insituto Leloir, Argentina) or placebo (normal saline 0.9%) administered in a 1:1 ratio. Both treatment and placebo will be concealed using dark bags and tape to cover the infusion line. Treatment will be administered 30 and/or an O2 sat
