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.

The infection caused by COVID19 worldwide makes it necessary to monitor drugs administered for the treatment of patients hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2. In order to know more about the efficacy and safety of the treatments used, researchers from the Cantabrian health service have developed an observational study, in the form of an ambispective registry, in which clinical data from patients treated with the different drugs currently recommended by the Spanish Agency of Medicines and Health Products (SAMHP) and the Ministry of Health, or others that may arise, are collected and analyzed. Although the conduct of clinical trials is a priority at this time, we cannot lose the clinical experience that is currently being generated, which may allow us to improve the therapeutic strategies for future patients.

The study aims to determine the safety and efficacy of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) containing nasal sprays as compared to isotonic saline nasal sprays in COVID-19 positive patients. The primary outcome measure is SARS-CoV-2 viral titers in the nasal cavity and nasopharynx. In vitro studies have shown PVP-I to be highly virucidal against the viruses which cause SARS and MERS. Additionally, clinical studies have shown PVP-I saline sprays to be well tolerated in human subjects. PVP-I oral rinses and sprays have been trialed as methods to reduce the incidence and symptoms of viruses which cause the "common cold."

Efficacy of Convalescent Plasma to Treat COVID-19 Patients, a Nested Trial in the CORIMUNO-19 Cohort
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) viral pneumonia is now a worldwide pandemic caused by the Severe acute respiratory virus coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The number of cases, and associated mortality has increased dramatically since the first cases in Wuhan, China in December 2019 . To date, no specific treatment has been proven to be effective for COVID-19. Treatment is currently mainly supportive, with in particular mechanical ventilation for the critically ill patients (6.1% in a series of 1099 cases in China). Novel therapeutic approaches are in acute need. In this context, the therapeutic potential associated with convalescent plasma needs to be explored. The objective of COVIPLASM trial (a nested trial in the CORIMUNO-19 COHORT) is to study the efficacy of convalescent plasma to treat SARS-COV2 infected patients.

Currently, no effective treatments are available for the COVID-19 pandemic, which is related to more than 70,000 deaths all over the world. Scientists and Researchers are working on many aspects of treatment options for the development of vaccination and medication to combat this life-threatening problem. Convalescent plasma from recovered COVID-19 patients contains antibodies against COVID-19 which may be beneficial to severely sick COVID019 infected patients. We have planned a randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of this therapy in COVID-19 infected sick patients. We will collect up to 500 ml Convalescent Plasma from the COVID-19 infected recovered patient after 14 days of clinical and radiological recovery with two consecutive COVID-19 negative tests by PCR. We will further test the sample from the collected plasma for COVID-19 specific antibodies and their titer. This plasma will be frozen and sent to the treating center (MAMC). 200-600 ml of convalescent plasma will be transfused to patients who fit the eligibility criteria and are randomized to the convalescent plasma group. This will be done in severely sick patients. Data will be collected for the benefit and adverse events related to convalescent plasma transfusion.

In December 2019, new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) broke out in Wuhan (Hubei, China), and it spread rapidly from one city to the whole country in just 30 days, and then worldwide cases began to appear. All the countries of the world take some precautions to prevent the spread of this epidemic disease, which WHO declared as "pandemic". Apart from compulsory situations, non-home and social isolation are the primary measures. However, not leaving the house and social isolation brings with it the restriction of physical activity. According to World Health Organization (WHO), in order to obtain health benefits, adult individuals between the ages of 18-64 should perform at least 150 minutes of physical activity per week (30 minutes a day for 5 days a week) or intensive physical activity for at least 75 minutes a week. For additional health benefits, adults should increase their moderate-intensity physical activities to at least 300 minutes a week or equivalent. Physical activity; It is directly related to the prevention of chronic diseases, increasing fitness, strengthening the muscles and increasing the quality of life. It is reported that one of the ten main risk factors in terms of mortality in the world is insufficient physical activity. The effects of social isolation are related to physical inactivity, smoking and the possibility of having both health risk behaviors together. Practical and innovative interventions are needed to reduce physical performance and decrease in muscle mass, strength and physical performance in the aging population. Considering today's conditions and current COVID-19 Pandemic, technology-supported exercise programs are effective in increasing the motivation for physical activity. The purpose of this study; In order to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, social isolation, which is one of the measures taken in our country, is to evaluate the physical activity level of adults and to investigate the effectiveness of home exercises. It is aimed to use a model based on the video supported by a home-based exercise program.

In absence of vaccine and medications specifically designed to treat SARS-CoV-2 disease, identifying treatment options is critical at this time to control the disease outbreak. For this, we have designed a phase II trial of efficacy and safety with 3 branches of different combinations of treatment to identify which is the best early treatment option for patients with pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) Identifying treatment options as early as possible is critical to the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak response. Currently, there is no approved vaccine for the disease and the treatments being used are not specifically designed for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, but are different groups of drugs used for other pathologies with mechanisms of action that justify their use because they inhibit entry of the virus into virus cells or proteases. The study aims to compare Imatinib 400mg, Baricitinib 4mg or supportive treatment, administered for 7 days in the setting of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia treatment. Patients who meet inclusion criteria and do not have any exclusion criteria will be randomized to receive open treatment 1:1:1
