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 is of grave concern due its impact on human health and on the economy. Propolis, a natural resin produced by bees from plant materials, has anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, anti-oxidant properties, and various aspects of the SARS-CoV-2 infection mechanism are potential targets for propolis compounds. Propolis components have inhibitory effects on the ACE2, TMPRSS2 and PAK1 signaling pathways; in addition, antiviral activity has been proven in vitro and in vivo. This is a pilot randomized study that aims to assess the impact of using Brazilian green propolis extract against the deleterious effects of the new coronavirus.

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered Coronavirus which was first identified in Wuhan, China in December 2019. Then the novel coronavirus outbreak was described and announced as a pandemic by World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11, 2020. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is currently the gold standard test for diagnosis of COVID-19. Nevertheless, due to its high false-negative rates (%10-50), diagnosis and treatment decisions do not depend on RT-PCR alone. Clinical presentation of patient and radiological findings are also important. However, neither clinical presentation nor computed tomography (CT) findings are specific for COVID-19. As a consequence of these challenges, the diagnosis of the disease and the protection of the community health become more difficult. The investigators of this study hypothesized that deep learning-based decision support system may help for definitive diagnosis of COVID-19. The aim is to develop a deep learning-based decision support system algorithm based on clinical presentation of patient, laboratory and CT findings and RT-PCR data. Previously, deep learning algorithms with the use of widely known deep neural network architectures such as Inception, UNet, ResNet were developed. However all of these studies were based on CT findings. There are not any deep learning study in literature combining the clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings of patients. The project is based on the available data of COVID-19 patients that will be obtained from the Ministry of Health. Then the data will be evaluated for relevance and reliability and labeled for the training of machine. Following the anonymization of data, data will be processed according to the predetermined inclusion-exclusion criteria. Thorax CT data will be labeled as typical / indeterminate / atypical / negative for COVID-19 pneumonia. Also, CT images of patients with known non-COVID-19 diseases will be labeled for the training of machine. Then, fever, lymphocyte count, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, contact information, RT-PCR findings will be labeled. Subsequently, the patients will be labeled and the machine will be trained with deep learning method with the help of this grouped and labeled data. Following the training phase, the algorithm will be tested and if the machine reaches the target specificity and sensitivity, the prototype will be tested. And then, the prototype will be embedded into the hospital software system. This software and algorithm will serve as an early warning system for clinicians and provide a better diagnostic rate especially with decreasing false-negative results. The effects of a pandemic cannot be measured by only the number of people diagnosed and isolated, or treatment provided. A pandemic affects not only community health but also individuals' psychological status, education, teaching methods, working models, daily lifestyles, producer/consumer behaviors, supply/demand balance; in other words every single area of life. On top of that, a pandemic causes long-term damages hard to reverse. The software will increase the diagnostic success rates, help to control the pandemic and minimize the collateral damages mentioned above. The investigators believe that, the product that will be produced at the end of this project will be of great benefit in controlling the secondary wave of COVID-19 expected to occur.

There is a pandemic in the world by COVID-19. Currently, the pharmacological curative or prophylactic treatments for this infection are not known. Recent studies have suggested that Hydroxy-Chloroquine could be effective in vitro and in vivo against COVID-19. The main objective of this study is to assess in patients with autoimmune disease treated with long course Hydroxy-Chloroquine initiated before the pandemic COVID-19 had an independent protective effect on the risk or the severity of infection with COVID-19.

The current severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is complicated by pneumonia (15 to 20% of cases) requiring hospitalization with oxygen therapy. Almost 20 to 25% of hospitalized patients require intensive care and resuscitation; half die. The main cause of death is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, some deaths have been linked to pulmonary embolism (PE). Recognition of PE is important because there is specific treatment to limit its own mortality. The identification of biological parameters of hemostasis predictive of thromboembolic disease is crucial in these patients. To evaluate the frequency of PE in the patients having to be hospitalized is to practice of a systematic thoracic angiography scanner in the patients having no contra-indication for its realization, as well as during hospitalization in patients deteriorating without any other obvious cause. The thromboembolic events and disturbances of the coagulation system described in patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonitis suggest that this viral infection is associated with an increase in the activation of coagulation contributing to the occurrence of thrombosis and especially from PE.
