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 COVID-19 epidemic is causing a global health crisis. In France, it has imposed a major reorganization of the healthcare system. This emergency reorganization is unprecedented. It involved first, second and third line care. Following this reorganization and from the first days of confinement, a decrease in care activity not related to COVID-19 was observed in médical offices, in emergency services, and in secondary and tertiary care services. This decrease in activity could indicate a decrease in pathologies related to work, transportation or non-COVID-19 infections, due to a favourable effect of lockdown. Nevertheless, some health professionals report the opposite in the media and on social networks, an unusual increase in events (appendicular peritonitis treated late, increase in domestic violence, etc.), while others are surprised by a decrease in activity that is difficult to explain (leukaemia diagnoses by biologists, for example). One hypothesis is that such changes could be related to the reorganisation of the health care system or to the consequences of lockdown. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a systematic collection and analysis of patient safety incidents (also called "adverse events" in France). The objective is to assess the roles of the system and human factors in patient safety, in order to propose changes to the global system and local organisation. In France, there is a system for reporting serious adverse events related to care. Only 4% of the 820 serious adverse events reported in 2018 were reported by primary healthcare professionals (1). However, patient safety incidents in primary care are known to have specific mechanisms, types and mechanisms (2). We hypothesize that the COVID-19 health crisis may have induced unusual patient safety incidents through new mechanisms in a context associating reorganization of the healthcare system and population lockdown. Such a scenario requires the implementation of a massive collection of potential incidents and their systematic and well-structured analysis. Thus, the objective of our study is to describe patient safety incidents related to the reorganization of care and/or lockdown in the context of the COVID-19 health crisis (types, severity, mechanisms) reported by primary care professionals in France. 1. - HAS.

Montefiore Medical Center
Given the high prevalence of COVID19 illness (both SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR confirmed and highly suspect cases) among healthcare workers (HCW) within the Montefiore Health System (MHS), hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) will be prescribed to healthcare workers who are at the highest risk for severe COVID19 illness.
University Hospital Tuebingen
Patients over equal or older than 65 yearswill be treated with a hydroxychloroquine versus placebo reduced loading dose of 600mg on the first day followed with 400mg/day divided in 2x200mg for 6 more days resulting in a total duration of therapy of 7 days. Measurement of Hydroxychloroquine-levels will be performed on day 7, . A follow-up by video or telephone conference will be performed to observe drug intake and collect adverse events during treatment phase on a daily base on working days and once during the weekend (i.e. 6 out of 7 days). After treatment phase follow-up by telephone calls will be done on day 10, 30, 60 (+/- 2 days).
Abderrahmane Mami Hospital
The study will assess the number of patients who become asymptomatic from clinical signs of COVID19 and will assess the efficacy of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and Azithromycine effects on paucisymptomatic patients with ou without co-morbidities
Bausch Health Americas, Inc.
This study is a Phase 1, open label, non-randomized, two-arm interventional clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Virazole® in hospitalized adult patients who have tested positive for COVID-19 and, as a result, have significant respiratory distress (PaO2/FiO2 ratio
Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the activity, safety and reduction in mortality of two regimens of low dose selinexor (KPT-330) in patients with moderate or severe COVID-19.
Sir Mortimer B. Davis - Jewish General Hospital
COVID-19 was declared a pandemic on March 11th. Efforts to save lives are essential as we will face increasing morbidity with rising demands on health care resources. Since pregnant women with COVID-19 have systematically been excluded from drug trials, potential treatment options for these high-risk individuals remain untested. The aim of our trial is to determine whether hydroxychloroquine given to COVID-19 positive pregnant women can reduce COVID-19-related hospital admissions, thereby allowing women to stay at home while limiting utilization of hospital resources and resulting exposure of health care providers.
King Hussein Cancer Center
The main objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of the combination hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin (HCQ and AZ) in reducing the infection risk among health care professionals in direct contact with COVID-19 patients.
Ansun Biopharma, Inc.
It is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study. The study population is defined as subjects diagnosed with lower respiratory tract COVID-19 who require supplemental oxygen ≥2 LPM at the time of randomization.
Incyte Corporation
The investigators hypothesize that JAK 1/2 inhibition with ruxolitinib, an FDA approved treatment for intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, could have a similar effect in patients with severe COVID-19, quelling the immune-hyperactivation, allowing for clearance of the virus and reversal of the disease manifestations.
