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.

Given the urgency of having guidelines for the management of COVID-19 in the current epidemic context and the lack of specific pharmacological treatment, Military Health recommends the launch of a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, interventional clinical trial. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a combination of two treatments, low-dose doxcycline (100 mg/day) and Zinc (15 mg/day) (dietary supplement) in the primary prevention of COVID-19 infection in health care professionals in Tunisia compared to two control groups.

This study is aimed to investigate the effect of Famotidine in the clinical recovery of COVID-19 patients. COVID19 is a worldwide pandemic. Hence SARS-CoV-2 is a novel virus; there is no specific medication against it. Like other countries of the world, Besides antiviral drugs, immunosuppressive agents, and symptomatic therapy like H2 receptor blocker FAMOTIDINE came to the limelight due to its role in reducing the symptoms of COVID-19 patients. The study will include COVID-19 participants to confirm by RT PCR or an HRCT chest. Detail history of each participant with comorbidity will be taken and will be examined carefully. The hospitalized patients admitted to the HDU/ICU units will be enrolled in this study. Critically ill patients who require ventilator support will not be included in this study. The outcome of the Famotidine treatment will be evaluated and compared with a control group.

Open label controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the use of convalescent plasma in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 infection. This study will have two arms, one arm will receive convalescent plasma plus standard of care, and the other arm will receive standard of care only. Adults older than 18 years old, hospitalized with diagnosis of COVID-19 confirmed by a laboratory test (molecular or serology), with severe or life-threatening disease, will be included to the study after obtaining inform consent by the patient of a direct family member. Participants will be then randomized 1:1 to the experimental and the control groups. Participants at the experimental group will receive 1 to 2 units of ABO compatible COVID-19 convalescent plasma (200 ml to 250 ml each) within 48 hours, in addition to the standard of care. Participants at the control group will receive standard of care. Safety of convalescent plasma administration will be evaluated, as well as other indicators of clinical efficacy.
National Bureau of Economic Research, Inc.
The aim of the study is to build off results from our first experiment (NCT04371419) , and test whether messages that acknowledge racial injustice on behalf of institutions affect the retention of knowledge and movement of beliefs and behavior with respect to Covid-19. The investigators will also test the effect of concordance of providers and whether highlighting the unequal burden of the disease has additional effects on knowledge, beliefs and behavior regarding covid-19. The sample will include African American and white adult Americans and oversample those with less than a college degree.

The current pandemic of SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19 disease is an unprecedented global emergency. COVID-19 appears to be a disease with an early phase where the virus replicates, coinciding with first presentation of symptoms, followed by a later 'inflammatory' phase which results in severe disease in some individuals. It is known from other rapidly progressive infections such as sepsis and influenza that early treatment with antimicrobials is associated with better outcome. Antiviral medications are most likely to be effective when administered soon after infection. There is therefore an urgent need to study subjects who have recently developed symptoms, or have recently been tested positive with or without symptoms, and who can be sampled frequently to understand changes in viral load. This cohort will allow us to collect detailed trajectory data on early disease and understand how pharmacological interventions may affect this. The objective of the FLARE trial is to assess whether early antiviral therapy with either favipiravir + Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r), LPV/r or favipiravir is associated with a decrease in viral load compared with placebo. The hypothesis is that this holds for COVID-19 and that early antiviral treatment may prevent progression to the later phase of the disease.

The study is a randomized controlled trail with an observational arm and aims at collecting information on the prevalence of COVID 19 infection in seasoned yoga practitioners by comparing it with the prevalence of COVID-19 infection prevalence rates among age and gender matched control participants who do not practice yoga. The study hypothesizes that yoga practice promotes protection and enhances recovery from the COVID-19 infection. To prove the hypothesis, the study investigators are collecting and comparing responses from seasoned yoga practitioners to age and gender matched controls participants (who do not practice yoga routinely) regarding their recovery from the COVID 19 infection. Based on validated questionnaires on perceived stress, anxiety, depression, well-being, mindfulness, joy disposition, and resilience in participants over the study duration, the investigators also collect information on participant's mental and emotional predispositions.

Open controlled clinical trial. Hospitalized pediatric patients with COVID-19 will be included. Upon admission to hospital serum determination of vitamin D, interleukins, ferritin and Dimer D will be performed. Subsequently, randomization will be performed to identify which group the patient belongs. Adverse effects will be evaluated on a daily basis. Serum levels of interleukin (IL) -2, 6, 7,10, ferritin and dimer-D will be taken at the beginning of hospitalization and on the 7th day after admission. It will be recorded if the patient presents deterioration of the respiratory function that requires endotracheal intubation and / or admission to intensive care and / or if he dies, and at what time of hospitalization does this outcome occur. The study will culminate when the patient is discharged from hospitalization.

Myocardial injury, as assessed by elevation of cardiac troponins (Tnc), is frequent among patients with COVID-19. Although rare autopsy cases reported COVID-19 related myocardial inflammation, the origin of Tnc elevation is unknown to date. Several cardiac causes, such as myocarditis, non-ischemic myocardial injury (NIMI), or myocardial infarction (MI) may lead to Tnc kinetic. Our work will test the hypothesis that during SARS-Cov2 infection, the elevation of cardiac biomarkers could be linked to the occurrence of myocarditis.
