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 purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination compared to placebo in reducing severe Covid-19 disease among elderly residents of skilled nursing facilities. The investigators hypothesize that BCG vaccination can reduce severity of Covid-19 disease. Patients who are residents of participating long-term care facilities (LTCFs), with the ability to understand and cooperate with study procedures, who agree to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to receive BCG vaccination or a placebo. Participants will be followed for up to twelve months to assess severity of Covid-19 outcomes.

Novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has emerged as a major international public health concern. While much of the morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19 has been attributed to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or end-organ failure, emerging data suggest that disorders of coagulation, in particular hypercoagulability and venous thromboembolism (VTE), may represent an additional major, and possibly preventable, complication (Wu C, et al. JAMA Intern Med. 2020 Mar 13. [Epub ahead of print] and Tang N, et al. Thromb. Haemost. 2020 Feb 19. [EPub Ahead of Print]). Abnormal coagulation testing results, especially markedly elevated D-dimer and FDP, have been associated with a poor prognosis in COVID-19 infection. We propose the following Electronic Health Record (EHR)-guided 10000-patient, retrospective observational cohort study to assess VTE incidence, risk factors, prevention and management patterns, and thrombotic outcomes in patients with COVID-19 infection. In order to gain the valuable perspective of other regional and national centers providing care for large populations of COVID-19, we have started a collaborative network with 5 additional sites which will provide us with de-identified data from 1000 patients each. These 5000 patients in addition to the 5000-patient cohort we are enrolling within the Mass General Brigham Network will comprise this study population.
Reena Mehra, MD
This study is a randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trial to evaluate the effects of toremifene and/or melatonin in adults with mild COVID-19.
Columbia University
The purpose of this study is to compare the mother-infant emotional connection formed during the pandemic in standard care (SC) versus Family Nurture Intervention (FNI) pairs, an evidence-based intervention designed to counteract the adverse effects of maternal-infant disconnection. In prior research on preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), FNI participants demonstrated increased quality of maternal caregiving behaviors and significant improvements in premature infants' neurodevelopment across multiple domains, including social-relatedness and attention problems. Goals of FNI include assisting mothers in providing appropriate types of stimulation for their babies that are important for social, emotional, and neurobehavioral development as well as reducing stress physiology in both mother and infant. Data gathered in this study will help the investigators learn more about the underlying mechanisms that take place during mother-infant interactions and examine how these play a role in setting the infant up for the best neurodevelopmental trajectory. Intervention will be conducted electronically both in the Well Baby Nursery (WBN) and at home over the following 4 months. Assessments will consist of videos of mother-infant interactions at the time of each intervention session, and pediatrician-led follow-up surveys conducted in the linked Institutional Review Board-approved study.
NYU Langone Health
COVID-19 is associated with acute pulmonary and cardiac injury. To better understand the degree and severity of cardiopulmonary injury as well as short and long-term sequelae of COVID-19 infection, this study will perform longitudinal study in patients who had recent known diagnosis of COVID-19.
Karolinska Institutet
In a cohort study, the investigators aim to compare confirmed COVID-19 patients with non-COVID-19 patients who undergo surgical treatment and study factors associated with good or bad outcomes.
Cartesian Therapeutics
Emergency study to test the safety of Descartes-30 cells in patients with moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) AND COVID-19
Lisata Therapeutics, Inc.
This clinical trial will explore the safety and potential efficacy of CLBS119 for the repair of COVID-19 induced pulmonary damage in adults.
CSL Behring
This is a phase 2, prospective, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) administration of CSL324, administered in combination with SOC treatment, in subjects with COVID 19. For the purposes of this study, standard of care (SOC) may include any written or established treatment protocol followed at the study site for the treatment of severe COVID-19 or its complications, including off-label use of marketed pharmaceutical products and / or products with emergency use authorization granted for the treatment of COVID-19 (ie, not yet marketed) (eg, remdesivir).
Joseph M. Flynn, D.O., MPH
This study proposes to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy, immunologic effects and normalization of laboratory parameters for patients at high risk for mortality when infected by SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) when administered one unit (approximately 200 mL) of convalescent plasma administered over a period of one hour. Following administration of the convalescent plasma, physical exam/clinical assessment information is collected daily and routine lab result data is collected every three days.
