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.

This research study evaluates the safety and effectiveness for the use of convalescent plasma transfusion as a treatment option for novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19). Donors who have recovered from COVID-19 with high antibody levels to the CoV-2 virus will donate plasma at a Mississippi Blood Services facility. Recipients with COIVD-19 who have severe or life threatening conditions will receive plasma from those persons who have recovered from COVID-19.

The purpose of the study is to design and execute a prospective, longitudinal, descriptive cohort study in a pragmatic clinical practice for adults with symptoms that may be related to COVID-19.

As part of the ROCO project, the University of Bern is investigating an online self-help program for people who are psychologically distressed due to the situation surrounding Covid-19. The ROCO program offers support in overcoming this psychological distress. ROCO stands for a 3-week online self-help program comprising 6 modules. The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy of an online self-help intervention for people with psychological distress due to the situation surrounding Covid-19. All participants will be randomized to one of two groups: The first group receives direct access to the online self-help intervention and the second group is a waiting control group that receives access to the program 3 weeks later. In both conditions additional care or treatment is allowed. There are 4 assessments, which all take place online: baseline, post assessment (after 3 weeks) and two follow-up assessments (after 6 and 18 weeks). All participants from both groups are asked to fill out all assessments.

Predi-COVID is a prospective cohort study composed of people positively tested for COVID-19 in Luxembourg, followed digitally for monitoring participants' health evolution and symptoms at home. Participants will be actively followed for 14 days from the time of confirmation of diagnosis, whether they are at the hospital or at home in isolation or quarantine. Short evaluations will be also performed at week 3 and week 4 and then monthly for a period up to 12 months to assess potential long term consequences of COVID-19. A subsample of 200 participants will be contacted to integrate complementary clinical data and collect samples. The study aims at identifying factors associated with the COVID-19 disease severity. COVID-19 patients with severity criteria will be compared to patients with mild disease managed at home. A deep phenotyping related to the symptoms of the disease as well as biosampling allowing for laboratory-based and computational analytics will be performed.

The medical and paramedical staff of the front-line services are potentially exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, despite the application of standard protective measures, it is possible that a certain number of these personnel have already contracted SARS-CoV-2, including in its asymptomatic form. Serological testing in this context would be useful for deploying immune healthcare workers as to limit the risk of viral infection and transmission. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to prove that the serological response entails the production of neutralizing antibodies.

The study seeks to investigate the effects of a guided internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) programme a on adult mental health problems related to the current coronavirus pandemic. ICBT will be compared to a wait-list control group. Participants will be recruited in Sweden with a nationwide recruitment.

Introduction: The SARS Co-2 contagious rate is high (Ro: 2.0-3.0). The infection is aggressive with high pathogenicity. Global confinement impacts all social and economic fields of human activity. Clinical behavior exceeds the capabilities of public health care. With the initial information on the pandemic, it is estimated that 20% of health personnel in direct contact with patients can acquire the disease, despite preventive self-care. The molecular relationship of COVID-19 with the subject's ACE2 protein encourages the virus to enter the host cell, and initiates replication and the immune response, causing an imbalance generating an immunological storm of cytokines, with serious damage to the host. Objective: It is proposed to supply a combined scheme of two compounds by oropharyngeal spray that captures the virus before entering the target cell and orally administer immunomodulatory compounds that regulate the inflammatory response released by the virus, in order to improve the antiviral response. Methodology: A controlled, parallel design, triple-blind, phase II clinical trial will be conducted with two study groups to compare the active compounds (oropharyngeal spray and emulsion) with placebo. Discussion: With the application of the combined scheme of two compounds, a 75% reduction in infection is expected for workers in direct contact with COVID patients.
