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 COVID-19 pandemic has triggered extremely high hospitalization rates where mitigation strategies are urgently necessary to aid vulnerable Hispanic and Latino populations who are experiencing health disparities as well as high type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence with poor clinical outcomes when compared to non-Hispanic populations. The supplemental Dulce Digital-COVID Aware (DD-CA) intervention addresses specific barriers in diverse underserved Hispanic and Latino communities to improve glucose control and lower transmission of COVID-19 during a highly vulnerable period post hospitalization discharge, to reduce hospital readmission rates. This supplement will integrate COVID educational messaging with glucose management messaging within a low-cost, easily adoptable digital texting platform and offer critical information in a culturally and linguistically relevant manner to address specific barriers in diverse underserved communities.

This is a multi-center, open-label study evaluating the safety of Allocetra-OTS, in up to 24 subjects with severe COVID-19 and respiratory dysfunction. Subjects, who will be identified as suffering from COVID-19, will be recruited. After signing an informed consent by the patient and, within 24+6 hours following the time of eligibility (time 0), on Day 1, eligible recipient subjects will receive single intravenous (IV) administration of investigational product as described below. Subjects will be hospitalized for COVID-19, and later as medically indicated. Following the investigational product (IP) administration (Day 1), subjects will be followed for efficacy and safety assessments through 28 days.
ImmunityBio, Inc.
This is a phase 1b, open-label study in adult healthy subjects. This clinical trial is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of the hAd5-S-Fusion+N-ETSD vaccine and select a dose for future studies.

Prone positioning is known to improve the PaO2/FiO2 ratio and reduce mortality in patients with ARDS managed in the critical care setting. Therefore, it is incorporated into regular clinical practice of managing patients with ARDS in critical care and is being used as such in the COVID-19 outbreak. Given that prone positioning is recommended by the Intensive Care Society in non-ventilated patients with COVID-19, there is an urgent need to better understand the physiological effects of prone positioning in such cases. Furthermore, the translation and applicability of such a low-cost non-invasive intervention in a wider group of patients with pneumonia not specific to covid-19 infection, is an important consideration that merits investigation. This single-centred observational study conducted at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust aims to improve understanding of physiological effects of prone positioning in non-ventilated patients with COVID-19 and a control group of patients with non-COVID-19 related pneumonia. The study also aims to incorporate a small subset of patients, with an approximately even spread of COVID-19 and non-COVID cases, which allows for an additional exploratory descriptive report on prone positioning over a 24-hour period. This study proposes that prone positioning improves oxygenation in non-ventilated patients with pneumonia (COVID-19 related or not) requiring supplemental oxygen managed outside of the critical care setting.

The charts of patients who developed pulmonary embolism in the course of COVID-19 will be evaluated, retrospectively. Clinical features and laboratory data will be analyzed.

All hospitalised patients with COVID-19 who have positive RT-PCR for SARS-COV-2 will be included in the study. The patients will be divided into two groups, as diabetics and non-diabetics. The COVID-19 patients' medical records will be evaluated and compared in terms of the duration of hospitalization, the presence of lung involvement in Computerised Tomography, the need for intensive care unit and mortality rates in patients with and without diabetes.

Due to COVID 19 (Corona virus disease)pandemic, majority of surgeries, including surgery for cancer patients got delayed across the globe. Surgeries were limited to emergency set up only. At our institute we tried to perform colorectal cancer surgeries through out the pandemic, albeit in less numbers, as we thought cancer in itself is an emergency setting. we are planning to analyse the prospectively managed database of this particular group of patients over a period of last six 6 months and look out at 30 day post operative morbidity and mortality. Besides we will try to analyse the implications of our decision to carry on with cancer surgeries in terms of number of health care workers who got infected while being involved in primary care of these patients.

Acute Respiratory Distress syndrome (ARDS) is a pulmonary systematic inflammatory response, leading to acute respiratory failure with hypoxia and/or hypercarbia. COVID-19 evokes a viral pneumonia, which may result in ARDS as well. It is not yet clear if COVID-19 disease behaves like the typical ARDS. Corona virus causes primarily deep hypoxia. Hypoxia, on its own, can lead to long term cognitive impairment. However, critical illness also affects long-term neurocognitive functioning. The investigators will be researching the possibility of long-term cognitive impairment in COVID-19 ICU patients, in comparison with reference values of a healthy population as well as the values measured in critically ill patients, admitted not only for respiratory reasons.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of HFB30132A when it is given by intravenously to healthy participants. Blood tests will be done to check how much HFB30132A is in the bloodstream and how long the body takes to eliminate it. Participation may include up to ten visits to the study center.

This is a feasibility study taking place at The Ottawa Hospital (TOH), Hôpital Montfort, and Queensway Carleton Hospital that seeks to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on family member bereavement and study the effect of virtual support groups on reducing risk of developing Severe Grief Reaction (SGR). This project is inviting family members of deceased patients at either of the three before mentioned sites to enroll in this study.
