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 pilot feasibility study of remotely delivered Problem Management Plus, a low-intensity psychological intervention, delivered in five sessions to adults affected by crisis. The current study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention when delivered remotely via Zoom to community members in New York City impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The investigator's goal is to use qualitative and quantitative approaches to inform procedures for a subsequent cluster randomized control trial of Problem Management Plus versus enhanced usual care. A mixed-methods design will be used to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, perceived utility, and impact of the remotely delivered PM+ intervention, to determine recruitment and retention rates, to assess ethics and safety of trial procedures. Additionally, the study will evaluate the acceptability, feasibility and fidelity of the remote training and supervision of helpers trained to deliver the intervention.

This study is an open trial designed specifically to address the need for evidence-based treatment delivered via telehealth to individuals that are currently struggling with mental health issues during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the overarching goal of helping residents of New York adversely impacted by the pandemic to effectively manage their anxiety, stress, and depression during this unprecedented time in human history.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of Cereset Research to improve the symptoms of stress in healthcare workers in an open label, waitlist controlled pilot clinical trial, during the period of COVID-19.

In neurocritical care, besides the standard intensive care monitoring, even more data are obtained from the very complex pathophysiological changes in brain disease. Medical staff for decision-making cannot integrate the huge amount of clinical data generated every second and visualized on different monitors, anymore. Lack of data integration and usability is a major reason that only few of the knowledge physicians use in this field is evidence based. Early warning systems, powered by predictive algorithms that detect critical states before they happen would allow the staff to intervene early and mitigate or even prevent such a critical state.

This 3-arm study compares the effectiveness of an (1) 8-week mindfulness-based intervention, MBCT-R (Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Resilience During COVID-19)+CHA MindWell vs. (2) iCBT (internet based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)+ CHA MindWell vs. (3) CHA MindWell remote monitoring and telephone coaching alone on depressive symptoms as measured over the course of 24-weeks by the computerized adaptive mental health (CAT-MH) interview for depression (CAT-DI). Secondary outcomes include rates and levels of alcohol and drug use, as well as the number of required mental health clinician visits (televisits and in-person visits). Exploratory outcomes include stress-related affect reactivity and salivary inflammatory markers (e.g., interleukin-6).

The aims of this study are to assess whether the use of a MBI therapy delivered remotely is associated with a reduction of perceived stress among HCPs in the Radiation Medicine Program (RMP) and with a decrease risk of burnout during and post COVID-19.

The clinical guidance for 90 percent of infected COVID-19 adult patients who do not meet eligibility for inpatient admission is to self-isolate. To support these patients, alternatives to in-person care are needed to manage an unpredictable clinical course; identify and intercept patients rapidly deteriorating at home, prevent viral spread during in-person visits; and minimize future surges in emergency departments (EDs). In addition, fingertip pulse oximeters have been proposed to improve in-home early detection of respiratory deteriorations but are untested and the operational infrastructure to support large-scale monitoring is limited. While telemedicine has been widely adopted during the pandemic as an alternative to conventional outpatient care, limited telemedicine access may be exacerbating observed disparities for Black and Latino patients. In our health system, Black and Latino patients used video-visits 15 percent less often than white patients. Text messaging and phone calls may improve healthcare access for communities of color, but the evidence for these telecommunication modalities to be effective and improve equity are limited. The University of Pennsylvania Health System (UPHS) developed and deployed COVID Watch to improve access to health care for COVID-19 patients who are self-isolating at home. COVID Watch sends twice-daily, scheduled text messages to assess patients for shortness of breath using a clinical algorithm to determine whether patients need an urgent escalation to a team of dedicated, on-call nurses within one hour. These nurses are supported by an on-call team of clinicians who can conduct urgent phone or video assessments. Patients can also trigger the algorithmic assessment independent of the scheduled messages. As of May 21, 2020, COVID Watch has managed 3,628 COVID-19 patients at home, of which 1,295 are confirmed COVID-19 positive; of these, 61 percent are Black or Latino, higher than the proportion of all UPHS COVID-19 positive patients that are Black or Latino (55 percent).

Myocardial infarction (MI), as one of the many complications of COVID-19, is one of the contributing patients of patients' death. This study attempts on developing an intervention of MI by regenerating damaged cardiomyocytes due to insufficiency of oxygen in cardiac muscles, triggered by an occlusion of coronary artery (MI). Heart patch developed from amnion bilayer seeded with amnion epithelial stem cells and patient's autologous cardiomyocytes is used as a therapy. Patients who undergo bypass (CABG) surgery are given heart patch, and then patients condition are observed by ECG, Echo, blood test, and radiology (technetium-99m)
