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 severity of COVID-19 is related to the level of hypoxemia, respiratory failure, how long it lasts and how refractory it is at increasing concentrations of inspired oxygen. The inability to perform hematosis due to edema that occurs from acute inflammation could be attenuated by the administration of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Recently, it has been reported benefits in this matter in patients with SARS-CoV-2 hypoxemic pneumonia in China; where the administration of repeated HBO sessions decreased the need for mechanical ventilation (MV) in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit due to COVID-19. Hyperbaric oxygen is capable of increasing drastically the amount of dissolved oxygen in the blood and maintain an adequate supply oxygen to the tissues. In addition to this, it can influence immune processes, both humoral and cellular, allowing to reduce the intensity of the response inflammatory and stimulate antioxidant defenses. HBO is considered safe and it has very few adverse events, it is a procedure approved by our authorities regulatory for several years. In the current context of the pandemic by COVID-19 and worldwide reports of mortality associated with severe cases of respiratory failure, it is essential to propose therapeutical strategies to limit or decrease respiratory compromise of severe stages by COVID-19. That is why, it is proposed to carry out this research to assess whether HBO treatment can improve the evolution of patients with COVID-19 severe hypoxemia.

Besides protective ventilation with low tidal volumes, prone positioning is a proven intervention to decrease mortality in mechanically ventilated patients with moderate-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. However, the evidence of this strategy in awake non-intubated patients is scarce. The investigators will perform a randomized controlled trial to define if prone positioning can reduce the requirement of mechanical ventilation.
Hospital General de México Dr. Eduardo Liceaga
Phase 2, randomized, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of maraviroc, favipiravir, and both drugs administered along with currently used therapy in hospitalized patients with pulmonary SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2) infection (COVID-19)
Universidad Internacional de Valencia
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a Positive Psychology intervention, that is focused on increasing the positive emotions and strengths of human beings. It is compared to the effectiveness of an online treatment with the change of the same participants before and after receiving the treatment accompanied by a chat support service vs. the treatment solely. The changes are being assessed through worldwide validated measures such as psychometrics.
University of California, Berkeley
The investigators have developed supportive text-messages in English and Spanish to help people cope with the stress and anxiety of COVID-19 social distancing. The purpose of this study is to examine if automated text-messages will improve depression and anxiety symptoms and enhance positive mood. Additionally, the investigators will compare the effectiveness of sending messages on a random schedule (using a micro-randomized trial design) or sent by a reinforcement learning policy on overall change in depression and anxiety symptoms and daily mood during the 8-week study.
Mekelle University
The investigators will evaluate the profile of the immune response of Ethiopian population and examine its relationship with the noted low CD4+ T-cell count and underlying immune activation status among participants with COVID-19 and will compare results with those residing in Europe. In addition, this project will evaluate the performance of various rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for SARS-CoV-2, taking into account the above-determined immune system characteristics. We will also evaluate the effect of co-infection with parasites on COVID-19 severity
Botnar Research Centre for Child Health
This study is to analyze the microglia reaction or direct neurotropic effects of CNS COVID-19 in pathogenesis and brain stem dysfunction in critically ill patients. A microglia-focused, brain-specific 50+ marker CODEX panel is used to assess the neuroinflammatory microenvironment in specific brain regions of deceased COVID-19 patients. The peripheral (cerebrospinal fluid and peripheral blood) cytokine response to SARS-CoV-2 is investigated in regard to CNS affection and consecutive blood brain barrier disruption leading to braininherent neuroinflammatory reactions
Bristol-Myers Squibb
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous abatacept administered to hospitalized COVID-19 participants with respiratory compromise.
KTO Karatay University
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation program on COVID-19 symptoms, quality of life, level of depression, perception of dyspnea, sleep, fatigue, kinesiophobia and patient satisfaction in individuals diagnosed with COVID-19.
Yale-NUS College
In this protocol, we seek the understand the demographics of individuals who have used the TraceTogether mobile application. Little is known about the group of individuals who are more likely to utilise the application. Hence, this study hopes to: (1) Understand the demographics of Singaporeans who use and do not use TraceTogether, (2) Identify other behavioural habits of people who do use TraceTogether, (3) Determine if confidence in government would have any effect on TraceTogether usage
