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.

HYPOTHESIS: The administration of vitamin D supplements to patients who have a positive diagnosis for SARS-Cov-2, acute pneumonia requiring hospital admission and vitamin D deficiency have a more favourable evolution than subjects not treated with vitamin D (placebo). This favourable evolution will translate into a reduction in mortality, fewer ICU admissions and fewer days of stay in hospital. OBJECTIVES: PRINCIPAL: To assess whether the group of patients receiving vitamin D supplements have a less severe evolution of their acute pneumonia, translated into lower mortality, than patients who do not receive that supplement. SECONDARY: 1) To determine the number of intensive care admissions and the number of days of admission in both groups (control group and intervention group). 2) To estimate the prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency in the patients studied and the effectiveness of its supplementation. 3) To establish the degree of complexity of each study group and carry out a cost-effectiveness study. METHODOLOGY: DESIGN: Clinical trial, randomized, placebo-controlled and double-blind, with two parallel groups The active treatment will be vitamin D (Hydroferol soft capsules of 0.266 mg). The placebo will consist of a tablet with the same external characteristics and with the same treatment scheme but which will not contain any vitamin D active ingredients.

The primary goal for this study is to assess whether receiving the results of an antibody test changes protective behavior to avoid SARS-CoV-2 infections (i.e., mask-wearing, physical distancing, limiting close contacts/avoiding crowds, hand-washing, avoiding contact with high-risk individuals). While studies have been published on the cross-sectional relationship between risk perception and other demographic characteristics and health behaviors that are protective for SARS-CoV-2 infection (see citations), there have been no studies showing the effect of receiving information about antibody positivity on protective behavior. Not only can results from this study be used to better model transmission, a better understanding of college student's risk perception around SARS-CoV-2 infections has implications for future vaccination strategies as well. There are concerns that a desire to return to "normal" life in combination with reduced perception of risk could have negative consequences for uptake of vaccination (Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security 2020 report, The Public's Role in COVID-19 Vaccination: Planning Recommendations Informed by Design Thinking and the Social, Behavioral, and Communication Sciences). The antibody test used in this study is named 'SARS-CoV-2 IgM/IgG rapid assay kit (Colloidal Gold)'. It provides a fast, on-site, and accurate detection of IgM/IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, with positive results of IgM antibodies indicating a recent infection, while positive results of IgG antibodies signaling a longer or previous infection. It can detect IgM and IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in human specimens of serum, plasma, or venous whole blood.

Vascular leakage following endothelial injury, responsible for interstitial and alveolar edema, is a major feature of pathogen induced acute lung injury. As acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to pandemic Covid-19 is associated with more than 60% mortality, controlling vascular leakage may be a major target to decrease the mortality associated with the spreading of the disease in France. FX06, a drug under clinical development containing fibrin-derived peptide beta15-42, is able to stabilize cell-cell interactions, thereby reducing vascular leak and mortality in several animal models, particularly during lipopolysaccharide-induced and dengue hemorrhagic shock . A phase I study was conducted in humans, with no specific adverse event detected with a dose up to 17.5 mg/kg. In a phase II randomized multicentre double-blinded trial in 234 patients suffering from ST+ acute coronary syndrome, FX06 treated patients exhibited a 58% decrease in the early necrotic core zone. Importantly, adverse events were highly comparable between groups, indicating a high safety profile for the drug . Lastly, the drug was used as a salvage therapy in a patient exhibiting a severe ARDS following EBOLA virus infection . Altogether, those data indicate that FX06 is well tolerated in humans and is a potent regulator of vascular leakage. Our hypothesis here is that FX06 may decrease pulmonary vascular hyperpermeability during ARDS following SARS-CoV-2 infection, thereby improving gas exchanges and the outcome of infected patients.

Introduction: During pandemics like the COVID-19, a significant number of the populace suffer from psychological distress (PD) that often abates naturally over time in the majority of people but persists in others to become pervasive and severe enough to trigger the onset of common mental disorders (CMD) like major depressive disorders (MDD), generalized anxiety disorders (GAD), post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD) and substance misuse disorders (SUD). Once identified, psychological distress as well as CMD can be managed using psychotherapy or pharmacotherapy. However, low levels of mental health literacy (MHL) manifested by the individual's unawareness of CMD symptoms, limited human and mental health infrastructure resources and high levels of mental illness stigma (MIS), are barriers to integration of mental health care in general health care during pandemics and epidemics such as the COVID-19. The study objectives will include: (a) Documenting MHL, PD, MDD, GAD, PTSD and SUD levels in the study population, (b) Determining the effectiveness of a psycho-education intervention delivered by village health team (VHT) members on study outcomes Methods: We shall employ an open label cluster-randomized trial design, with each village as a cluster, to conduct the study in 24 villages (12 intervention and 12 control villages) in Kampala (n= 15), Wakiso (n= 3), Masaka (n= 2) and Mukono (n= 4) districts. To ensure balance between the two study arms, villages underwent stratified randomization on the basis of rural vs urban population. The second level of stratification will be achieved by a separate randomization procedure performed within each stratum to ensure gender balance within each cluster We will develop information education and communication materials (IEC) aimed at improving MHL and reducing MIS. In the intervention arm (n=12 villages), VHTs will distribute the IEC materials in every 12th household till they accrue 420 individuals (adults ≥ 18 years old) who express interest in participating in the study. In the control arm (n=12 villages), VHTs will distribute MOH COVID-19 information leaflets in every 12th household till they accrue 420 individuals who express interest in participating in the study. Within 7days after distribution of the materials, trained research assistants will schedule and assess participants (through a phone interview) for MHL, PD, MDD, GAD, PTSD and SUD. Individuals who don't have phones will be asked to provide a phone number of a friend or relative through which the interviews can be conducted; interviews could also be conducted using the VHTs' phone. Cost data will be collected using available implementation data. We will document the number of individuals from both arms who will contact the investigators Data analysis plans: We will (a) report frequencies and percentages and their 95% confidence intervals for the first objective, (b) use an intention to treat analysis to analyze the second objective, Conclusion: Findings from this research will guide policy and practice regarding the integration of mental health services in the community in the context of epidemic preparedness and response.

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.
