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, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, PK profile, and efficacy of COVI-AMG in subjects with COVID-19.
MiNK Therapeutics
A Phase 1/2 study of agenT-797 to treat moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) secondary to acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) or influenza.
Kafrelsheikh University
Investigating the role of 13cis retinoic acid in the treatment of COVID-19 and enhancement of Its spike protein based vaccine efficacy and safety.
King Hussein Cancer Center
This is a pilot, randomized, single-center, parallel group, open-label controlled study to evaluate the feasibility, safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of nebulized HCQ01 plus Standard of Care (SOC) versus SOC alone in hospitalized cancer patients with COVID-19. King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC) is the study sponsor, and the study will be conducted at KHCC COVID-19 wards. Approximately 28 cancer patients, ≥18 years of age with a confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to the treatment and control arms where they will receive ten doses of Hydroxychloroquine solution via nebulizer in addition to SOC or the control arm where treatment will follow KHCC SOC.
Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc.
This is a Phase 2, randomized controlled, multicenter study to assess the safety and efficacy of COVI-MSC in the setting of current standard of care (SOC) treatments for COVID-19 infection in hospitalized subjects with ARD/ARDS.
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
This is a phase Ib trial with SAR439459, a TGF-beta inhibitor, in combination with cemiplimab, a PD-L1 inhibitor, in patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Inhibiting TGF-beta may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread and may sensitize cancers to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. The objective of this study is to determine whether this drug combination is effective in shrinking cancers, keeping them from growing, helping patients live longer, and to see if the drug combination is safe.
University of Minnesota
Acute treatment of COVID-ARDS with direct topical lung instilled T3 therapy for patients on mechanical ventilation.
ContraFect
This is an open-label, expanded access study of exebacase used in addition to antistaphylococcal antibiotics in adult patients with persistent methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infections (BSI), including right-sided endocarditis (R-IE), who are hospitalized with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Patients with left-sided endocarditis (L-IE) are excluded. Patients will receive a single dose of exebacase. Patients will continue to receive antistaphylococcal antibiotics as prescribed by the treating physician. Exebacase Phase 3 study sites (Study CF-301-105) may participate in this Expanded Access study (Study CF-301-107). Exebacase, a direct lytic agent, is an entirely new treatment modality against S. aureus. Exebacase is a recombinantly-produced, purified cell wall hydrolase enzyme that results in rapid bacteriolysis, potent biofilm eradication, synergy with antibiotics, low propensity for resistance, and the potential to suppress antibiotic resistance when used together with antibiotics. Exebacase represents a first-in-field, first-in-class treatment with the potential to improve clinical outcome when used in addition to standard-of-care antibiotics to treat S. aureus BSI including IE.
