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.

As of February 17th, 2020, China has 70635 confirmed cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), including 1772 deaths. Human-to-human spread of virus via respiratory droplets is currently considered to be the main route of transmission. The number of patients increased rapidly but the impact factors of clinical outcomes among hospitalized patients are still unclear.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was recognized as a pandemic on March 11, 2020 by the World Health Organization. The virus that causes COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) is easily transmitted through person to person and there is still no specific approach against the disease and mortality rate in severe cases is also significant. Therefore, finding effective treatment for the mortality of these patients is very important. In this study the investigators aim to determine the effect of Convalescent Plasma on COVID-19 patients Outcome through a Clinical Trial

Management of known patients with cardiovascular disease (in particular the whole spectrum of atherosclerotic ischaemic coronary artery disease, essential hypertension under treatment, and also patients with chronic heart failure under medication) and with other associated chronic pathologies, with obvious effects on the management of the pandemic with modern / distance means (e-Health) of patients at high risk of mortality in contact with coronavirus. Given the Covid-19 Pandemic, all the above complex cardiovascular patients are under the obligation to stay in the house isolated and can no longer come to standard clinical and paraclinical monitoring and control visits. Therefore, a remote management solution (tele-medicine) of these patients must be found. The Investigators endeavour is to create an electronic platform to communicate with these patients and offer solutions for their cardiovascular health issues (including psychological and religious problems due to isolation). The Investigators intend to create this platform for communicating with a patient and stratify their complaints in risk levels. A given specialist will sort and classify their needs on a scale, based on specific algorithms (derived from the clinical European Cardiovascular Guidelines), and generate specific protocols varying from 911 like emergencies to cardiological advices or psychological sessions. These could include medication changing of doses, dietary advices or exercise restrictions. Moreover, in those patients suspected of COVID infection, special assistance should be provided per protocol.

SARS-CoV-2 infection mainly leads to interstitial pneumonia. The patients with low immunity have more serious conditions. At present, there is no specific drug/therapy available for COVID-19. NK cells are the major cells of the natural immune system, which are essential for innate immunity and adaptive immunity, and are indispensable in the defense of virus infection. NKG2D is an activating receptor of NK cells, which can recognize and thus clear virus infected cells. NK cells modified by CAR play a role in targeted cell therapy, and have benn demonstrated very safe without severe side effects such as cytokine releasing syndromes. The survival time of NK cells will be very short if there is no IL-15-sustained support after adoptive transfer into the body. In comparison with natural IL-15 in vivo, IL-15 superagonist (sIL-15/IL-15Rɑ chimeric protein) has increased the activity by nearly 20 times and as well as improved pharmacokinetic characteristics with longer persistence and enhanced target cytotoxicity. CAR-T cell-mediated cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity have been shown to be abrogated through GM-CSF neutralization. ACE2 is the receptor of SARS-CoV-2 and binds to S protein of the virus envelope. We have constructed and prepared the universal off-the-shelf IL15 superagonist- and GM-CSF neutralizing scFv-secreting NKG2D-ACE2 CAR-NK derived from cord blood. By targeting the S protein of SARS-CoV-2 and NKG2DL on the surface of infected cells with ACE2 and NKG2D, respectively, and with the strong synergistic effect of IL15 superagonist and CRS prevention through GM-CSF neutralizing scFv, we hope that the SARS-CoV-2 virus particles and their infected cells can be safely and effectively removed, thus providing a safe and effective cell therapy for COVID-19. In addition, ACE2 CAR-NK cells can competitively inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection of type II alveolar epithelial cells and other important organ or tissue cells through ACE2 so as to make SARS-CoV-2 abortive infection (i.e., no production of infectious virus particles). This project is an open, randomized, parallel, multicenter phase I/II clinical trial. The NKG2D-ACE2 CAR-NK cells secreting super IL15 superagonist and GM-CSF neutralizing scFv are going to be give by intravenous infusion (108 cells per kilogram of body weight, once a week) for the treatment of 30 patients with each common, severe and critical type COVID-19, respectively.

The COVID-19 pandemic leads to a greatly increased risk of substantial psychological stress worldwide. We intend to evaluate an online support program aiming at reducing stress in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The program consists of twelve modules that participants undergo, covering a broad range of topics related to stress in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been developed together with and is provided by Selfapy GmbH, Berlin. The aim of this randomised clinical trial with observational components is to estimate the effects of the intervention as a whole, as well as individual modules and selected chapters. Further, follow-up assessments as well as information on risks and the long-term course of COVID pandemic-related stress may help to elucidate COVID-19 pandemic stress across time and what we can do to prevent long-term negative consequences.

The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) has been discovered recently in December 2019 from wuhan city in China to spread in more than 40 countries allover the world. This disease has gain the attention of all nations after it has been stated as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) in March 12, 2020. Currently no treatment has been proved to be efficient in the treatment of infected patients by COVID-19. Natural honey has been demonstrated as potent antimicrobial in many research investigations and has been considered a good alternative for antiviral drugs for the treatment of some viral infections. The investigators aim to study the efficacy of natural honey in the treatment of COVID-19 patients in this randomized , multicenter, controlled trial, comparing honey in one arm to standard care in the other arm.

During the current COVID-19 Pandemic, all communities are relying heavily on medical personnel and first-responders to maintain high levels of psychological and occupational functioning. However, during times of persistent high levels of stress, many individuals experience depletion in psychological resources, suffering intense distress that can make daily occupational and interpersonal functioning difficult. In order to assist with this immense challenge, this research team has developed a brief daily intervention based on decades of stress and trauma research that may help to support psychological health in individuals on the frontlines who are most essential to society. Considerable evidence supports the role of attention to and conceptualization of emotional experience in psychological resilience. This project tests a highly innovative combination of interventions targeting these processes in a brief, daily activity. The primary project aim is to investigate the Daily Coping Toolkit for medical personnel and first responders to determine efficacy over time, to test relative dosing, and to explicate the underlying therapeutic processes. The toolkit consists of 3 activities, administered one time each day, taking minutes to complete and will be administered to n=1000 personnel. Data analysis will test the impact of the toolkit on momentary affective processes and on symptoms and wellbeing over 9 months. The impact of this research will be evidence to support the further use of this novel tool to assist essential front-line personnel during this ongoing crisis helping to mitigate the psychological toll and also support occupational functioning now and in the future.
