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 investigators aim to deliver a tele-wellness supported app to Baltimore City's Family Child Care Home (FCCH) providers who are caring for children of Essential Personnel. Once a pre-survey is conducted, login information will be assigned to 30 Family Child Care Home providers and parents the FCCH serve. Providers and Parents will receive self-care and parenting/parent engagement support through the app and through a tele-wellness service, Ask a Nurse, provided by community health nurses at the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing. Children will have access to gamified learning materials in early literacy, math, social-emotional learning, and nutrition.

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether, at 21 days, care homes that implemented near-patient daily testing have a lower rate of confirmed CoV-2 infections than care homes following the DHSC standard of care testing of symptomatic residents.

The research aims to determine the impact of a syndromic mutiplex PCR assay (FilmArray) on the management of patients hospitalized in ICU for severe respiratory disease. During the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak, the diagnosis of pneumonia has become considerably more complex as the biological, radiological and clinical criteria of covid-19 interfere with the standard criteria for the diagnosis of severe respiratory diseases. Moreover, patients with COVID-19 are at higher risk of developing other associated infections and thus, patients have therefore often been treated with antibiotics, adequately or not, due to difficulty to quickly identify the etiology of their symptoms with conventional methods. In order to improve their treatment, both diagnostic and therapeutic, we set up a new syndromic molecular test in our laboratories to accelerate and improve the pneumonia management and antibiotic stewardship. This research will include 100 to 150 adult patients hospitalized in ICU during the first half of 2020. It will take place within the Nancy University Hospital and the Reims University Hospital, France.

The study is devoted to the comparative analysis of the data received in patients with COVID-19 lung pathology using the method of probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy of distal airways and two reference methods: high resolution computed tomography and morphology (in some patients).

This survey is performed to examine if during the Covid's crisis, the practitionner's have respected the modalities of the law about the end of life, in particular concerning limitations and stop of therapeutics

A sequential combination of different antibodies test against SARS-CoV-2 is evaluated. The protocol included a rapid test and several ELISA tests within a defined cohort of healthcare workers.

The XPHI-COVID19 randomized study aims to investigate the mechanisms of moral judgements in a population of caregivers, using a survey, with the results to the Oxford Utilitarianism Scale as primary outcome.
Salveo Diagnostics
The negative global consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted efforts to develop efficient laboratory testing protocols that can be quickly scaled in a practical way. Traditional phlebotomy requirements for antibody testing (venipuncture) often serve as a barrier to widespread population testing since they typically require dedicated facilities and personnel training. Conversely, antibodies are typically very stable in blood and require very little testing volume, which make antibody tests well suited to be run on samples collected via finger-stick, saliva, or other self-administered collection devices. Salveo Diagnostics is a CLIA/CAP certified clinical laboratory that routinely performs testing for anti-SARS-Cov-2 antibodies. The purposes of this protocol are to 1) assess the feasibility of streamlined sample collection procedures for assessing COVID-related immune status, and 2) to provide a mechanism for securing sequential samples in COVID positive and negative patients to support additional studies (e.g. investigating timing of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody class switching and antibody persistence).

The end of 2019 saw the emergence of a new human coronavirus (COVID-19) spread rapidly around the world and has a high degree of lethality. In more severe cases, patients remain in hospital inpatient units, under the care of the health team. To serve this population, it is important to use and develop potential tools to meet the demands of physical activity and improve cardiorespiratory fitness. In this sense, exposure therapies of virtual reality are promising and, although limited for this purpose, have been shown to be an adequate and equivalent alternative to traditional exercise programs. Fifty patients with confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 will be evaluated in an inpatient unit at Hospital São Paulo, at Escola Paulista de Medicina, Universidade Federal de São Paulo (HSP - EPM/UNIFESP). After completing all the questionnaires and tests of the initial evaluation (Medical Research Council Scale, Visual Analogue Scale, BORG Scale, Brunel's Mood Scale, Satisfaction Scale and Heart Rate Variability - HRV), the individuals will be divided into two groups being Group A: Subjects with COVID-19 who will start the first day of the protocol with Virtual Reality tasks in the morning and then in the second period, in the afternoon, will perform the conventional exercises (n = 25); And Group B: Subjects with COVID-19 who will start the first day with conventional exercises in the morning and in the second period, in the afternoon, will perform activity with virtual reality (n = 25). After the application of therapies, final evaluations will be carried out. The rehabilitation protocol will be applied during all days of hospitalization. For the protocol, the Heart Rate Variability indices will be evaluated in three moments: (1) rest before the task, (2) during the intervention, (3) recovering from the intervention. The performance data during the activity in Virtual reality will also be evaluated. The results of this study will assist in assessing the response to rehabilitation therapies during hospitalization and the prognosis of these patients.
