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.

COVID-19 is a rapidly spreading and very contagious disease caused by a novel coronavirus that can lead to respiratory insufficiency. In many patients, the chest radiograph at first presentation be normal, and early low-dose CT-scan is advocated to diagnose viral pneumonia. Lung ultrasound (LUS) has similar diagnostic properties as CT for diagnosing pneumonia. However, it has the advantage that it can be performed at point-of-care, minimizing the need to transfer the patient, reducing the number of health care personnel and equipment that come in contact with the patient and thus potentially decrease the risk of spreading the infection. This study has the objective to examine the accuracy of lung ultrasound in patients with proven COVID-19 pneumonia.

This center intends to conduct a single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Nintedanib ethanesulfonate soft capsule in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis in patients with moderate to severe COVID-19.

This is a multi-center, randomized, controlled, phase II clinical efficacy study evaluating a novel Nitric Oxide Releasing Solution (NORS) treatment for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in healthcare workers at risk of infection. Participants will be enrolled into one of two components of this study. Based on initial swabs/symptoms, volunteers who are COVID-19 negative will be enrolled in the Prevention study and randomized to receive standard institutional precautions or standard institutional precautions + NORS. Those who are COVID-19 positive will be enrolled in the open-label Treatment Sub-Study.

The actual pandemic infection related to SARS-CoV2 results in viral pneumonitis (COVID-19), that may, in the more severe cases, lead the patients to the intensive care unit (ICU). The more frequent presentation is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). To penetrate cells, SARS-CoV2 uses Angioconvertase type 2 (ACE2) as a cellular entry receptor. ACE2 belong to the renin-angiotensin-aldosteron system (SRAA), and ACE2 levels are directly modified when SRAA inhibitors are administred to patients, and ACE2 level increases particularely with Angiotensin II Receptor blockers (ARA2) use. The aim of our study is to determine ACE2 level and activity in patients with SARSCoV2 infection admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). COVID ARA2 is a propsective cohort of patient with blood sampling at the day of admission, day 3 and day 7.

This study evaluates treatment with Favipiravir combined with supportive care for adult patients with COVID-19-moderate type.

Arriving in December 2019, Coronavirus COVID-19 infection is causing a global pandemic with high morbidity and mortality among adults and especially seniors. The child appears little or no affected by this infection. It is estimated that the child could be asymptomatic or pauci-symptomatic carrier and thus be vector of the disease. For this reason, measures have been taken to close schools and contain populations in a large number of countries, including France. However, there are no data on the prevalence of COVID-19 in children.
Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University
This clinical trial is set out to evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic human dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of severe pneumonia caused by COVID-19; to explore the effects of human dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of severe pneumonia of COVID-19 in terms of reducing mortality and improving clinical prognosis; and to discover a new therapeutic strategy for COVID-19 using allogeneic human dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells.
Novartis is the Marketing Authorization Holder for Jakavi outside the US.
The purpose of this Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to ruxolitinib for eligible patients diagnosed with severe/very severe COVID-19 illness. The patient's Treating Physician should follow the suggested treatment guidelines and comply with all local health authority regulations. The requesting Treating Physician submitted a request for access to drug (often referred to as Compassionate Use) to Novartis which was reviewed and approved by the medical team experienced with the drug and indication. Please refer to the latest Investigator's Brochure (IB) or approved label for overview of ruxolitinib including: non-clinical and clinical experience, risk and benefits. Novartis will continue to provide any new safety information to the Treating Physician as they emerge.

A pneumonia of unknown cause detected in Wuhan, China was first reported to the WHO Country Office in China on 31 December 2019. The outbreak was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020. The spread and severity of the disease is variable from one country to another. Our team as well as many reports suggested that in some countries a " Flu like illness but much worse" was described in October, November and early in December before the WHO announcement. Was it COVID-19?

Coronavirus disease 2019 or COVID-19 is a highly contagious infectious disease. Symptoms of the disease are non-specific (fever, cough, dyspnea and fatigue), common with many seasonal viruses, which complicates the diagnosis. For mild forms, which represent the vast majority of cases, hospitalization is not necessary and treatment is symptomatic. However in more severe cases, hospitalization is required and sometimes even admission to an intensive care unit. Several diagnostic tests are already available, but they require, in all cases, the intervention of qualified health personnel to carry out the sample, which includes a risk of contagion and an expensive and time-consuming laboratory analysis and reagents. These tests are therefore not very suitable for massive screenings. We want to evaluate the performance of a detection test performed on a salivary sample in the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2. This test will be non-invasive, performed without any analytical device and will restore its qualitative result "infected versus non-infected" in less than 1 hour (30min objective).
