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 objective of this trial is to evaluate the effect of the consumption of a probiotic strain on the incidence and severity of COVID-19 in elderly population living in a nursing home. In addition, it will be evaluated if the probiotic strain have some effect on the immune response generated by the Covid-19 vaccine inthis population.
Park Nicollet Foundation
The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of two medications-colchicine and low-dose naltrexone (LDN)-relative to standard of care (SOC) on COVID-19 disease progression to severe/critical illness and/or intubation in patients hospitalized with moderate COVID-19. As researchers have learned, COVID-19's clinical course suggests that the hyperinflammatory response seen in severe/critical cases is involved in the pathogenesis of associated adverse sequelae such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), thromboembolic disease, and acute cardiac injury. Given colchicine has demonstrated clinical utility in inflammatory syndromes within these systems (e.g. endothelial/vascular/myocardial), and LDN acts both to boost the immune system, and limit an excessive response; they may prove useful in minimizing the risk of disease progression and associated adverse sequelae.

Treatment of Severe COVID-19 Patients Using Secretome of Hypoxia-Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Indonesia
In this randomized controlled trial (RCT), severe cases of COVID-19 infection will be treated with secretome of hypoxia-mesenchymal stem cells. The improvement in clinical, laboratory, and radiological manifestations will be evaluated in treated patients compared with the control group.
BRAC University
In line with BRAC's overall goals to limit the COVID19 transmission, BRAC has constructed 1,000 handwashing stations coupled with other supports i.e. in-person demonstration, hygiene meetings, and soap distribution in Bangladesh. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of public handwashing stations (HWSs) on people's hygiene behavior and health outcomes in response to the COVID-19 situation. For this, at the household level, we will collect information on self-reported handwashing practices, income, health status, and HWSs along with other relevant socio-demographic variables in detail. In addition, we will observe people's mobility, mask usage at public places, and the HWSs usage; and will associate the observed HWSs usage with their self-reported health outcomes. This study will conduct surveys on households (7,760) and public (5,820) in 20 sub-districts of Mymensingh, Khulna, and Dhaka divisions. Overall, this study is expected to directly benefit study participants and their communities by unveiling new evidence to inform BRAC's existing hygiene behavioral change programming in these communities. In addition, this information will yield future societal benefits by generating evidence on how to effectively implement and disseminate infrastructure and information that people can trust, believe, and use to form healthy hygiene habits.

Based on the literature, it seems likely that a nutritional intervention with nicotinamide (a form of vitamin B3) can support the therapy of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19). A pilot phase of the COVit trial showed an effect of nicotinamide on the time to complete resolution of COVID-19 symptoms. In addition, diarrhoea is a common symptom of COVID-19. Therefore, in a second part of the study, 420 symptomatic patients each with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection are to take 1,000 mg nicotinamide (500 mg conventional nicotinamide and 500 mg nicotinamide released in a controlled manner in the intestine) or corresponding placebos per day in a blinded fashion for 4 weeks. The primary endpoint of the trial is the occurrence of individual COVID-19 symptoms over time (primary analysis time point: week 2). Secondary endpoints focus on the severity of COVID-19 symptoms, the post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS), anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels, and the time to resolution of individual or all symptoms. Exploratory endpoints include the WHO clinical scale for COVID-19, development of severe COVID-19, fatigue, quality of life and biomarkers. Patients are approached after positive testing and give their informed consent online. After randomised distribution of the trial supplements, patients are interviewed by telephone about their disease course at baseline (week 0), week 2, week 4, week 6 and after 6 months. Stool samples are collected from up to 400 patients at the same timepoints. In addition to blood count and standard blood profile, various inflammatory markers and the metabolome, in particular tryptophan metabolism, are examined in the blood of up to 20 selected patients. In these patients, the viral strain is determined by sequencing from nasopharyngeal swabs. In selected patients, short-term pharmacokinetics of nicotinamide, nicotinic acid and nicotinuric acid as well as of metabolites of nicotinamide and tryptophan are investigated. In the stool, changes in the microbiome (in 100-300 patients) as well as metagenome and metabolome (in a subgroup) will be analysed. The study is expected to produce rapid results on whether nicotinamide supplementation can alleviate the disease course of COVID-19. Moreover, a follow-up interview, a smell test, a cognitive test and anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels after at least 6 months will be used to investigate whether the supplementation has any influence on PCS as well as the immune reaction against SARS-CoV-2.
