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 is a randomized, open label, adaptive platform trial to compare the effectiveness of antithrombotic and additional strategies for prevention of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 positive inpatients
Roche Pharma AG
A phase II clinical trial will be carried out with the objective of studying the impact of the administration of Tocilizumab on the evolution of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in patients with severe or critical SARS-CoV-2 infection. Due to the high mortality of severe forms of SARS-CoV-2 and for ethical reasons, a control arm will not be included. Patients will be recruited by signing an informed consent and the baseline variables of interest will be recorded. Tocilizumab will be administered in one or two doses, depending on the case, and will be followed up for 30 days. The response to treatment, survival and evolution will be studied. Factors associated with improvement of ARDS and survival will be identified through multivariate analyzes. The results will be compared with those reported internationally.
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
The study researchers think that a medication called N-acetylcysteine can help fight the COVID-19 virus by boosting a type of cell in your immune system that attacks infections. By helping your immune system fight the virus, the researchers think that the infection will get better, which could allow the patient to be moved out of the critical care unit or go off a ventilator, or prevent them from moving into a critical care unit or going on a ventilator. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved N-acetylcysteine to treat the liver side effects resulting from an overdose of the anti-inflammatory medication Tylenol® (acetaminophen). N-acetylcysteine is also used to loosen the thick mucus in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study is the first to test N-acetylcysteine in people with severe COVID-19 infections.
Imperial College London
This study will test the COVID-19 vaccine candidate AZD1222 to investigate its safety, tolerability and capability of boosting immune responses both in the blood and the lung when administered to the respiratory tract, in volunteers previously vaccinated by intramuscular COVID-19 vaccination. Using standardised methods, we will measure immune responses in the blood, nose and lower airway and compare with data from ongoing clinical trials of intramuscular vaccination. Thus, we will show the effect of the delivery method and provide the critical information required to begin further clinical trials to show the efficacy of this needle-free vaccination strategy for booster vaccination.
International Vaccine Institute
This is an observer-blind, randomized study which aims to assess the immune response and the safety of two different approved vaccines for first and second dose in healthy adults.
Walvax Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
The purpose of this double-blind, randomized, controlled study is to assess immunogenicity and safety of 202-CoV at multiple dose levels, administered as 2 injections (i.m) at 28 days apart in adult subjects 18 years of age and above.
International Vaccine Institute
To expand the access and delivery of COVID-19 Vaccines in Africa (ECOVA), the investigators will conduct a phase 3, individually randomized, observer-blind, controlled (influenza vaccine) trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the BBIBP-CorV vaccine against any severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV- 2) infection among adults 18 years and older. The BBIBP-CorV vaccine is an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Vero cell) manufactured by the Beijing Institute of Biological Products (BIBP), China National Biotec Group (CNBG), Sinopharm, Beijing, People's Republic of China and received emergency use authorization (EUA) from World Health Organization (WHO).
Walvax Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
The purpose of this double-blind, randomized, controlled study is to assess safety, reactogenicity, and preliminary immunogenicity of 202-CoV at multiple dose levels, administered as 2 injections (i.m) at 28 days apart in adult subjects 18 years of age and above.

This study is a multi-centre, blinded, randomized controlled trial. LTCF residents ≥ 65 years who have received three doses of mRNA vaccine will be randomized to vaccination with a fourth dose of Pfizer-BioNtech mRNA- COVID-19 vaccine or to vaccination with a control (Prevnar-13 vaccine).

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of additional estradiol estrogen therapy on clinical response and mortality in non-severe COVID-19 patients
