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.

This pilot trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of chat-based instant messaging support in preventing smoking relapse in recent tobacco abstainers.

Morbidity, mortality and progress depends on systemic inflammation especially in ARDS patients. Previous studies claims that the proportion of mean platellet volume to platellet which can simply be determined with simple blood tests that are performed at admission, might predict the mortality in ARDS patients. Covid-19 pneumonia has a very similar clinical outlook with ARDS. Therefore we decided to research whether that proportion is legitimate for detecting the progress of Covid-19 pneumonia or not.

Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Multi-Centre Phase II/III Adaptive Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Immunogenicity of Gam-COVID-Vac Combined Vector Vaccine for SARS-Сov-2 Infection in Indian Healthy Subjects.
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
ACTT-4 will evaluate the combination of baricitinib and remdesivir compared to dexamethasone and remdesivir. Subjects will be assessed daily while hospitalized. If the subjects are discharged from the hospital, they will have a study visit at Days 15, 22, and 29. For discharged subjects, it is preferred that the Day 15 and 29 visits are in person to obtain safety laboratory tests, oropharyngeal (OP) swabs, plasma (Day 29), and serum for secondary research as well as clinical outcome data. However, if infection control or other restrictions limit the ability of the subject to return to the clinic, these visits may be conducted by phone, and only clinical data will be obtained. The Day 22 visit does not have laboratory tests or collection of samples and is conducted by phone. The primary objective is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of baricitinib + remdesivir versus dexamethasone + remdesivir as assessed by the mechanical ventilation free survival by Day 29.

Vitamin D and Zinc Supplementation for Improving Treatment Outcomes Among COVID-19 Patients in India
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of vitamin D and/or zinc supplementation on improving COVID-19 treatment outcomes. The effects of vitamin D, zinc, and both vitamin D and zinc together will be investigated among COVID-19 patients in India.
Medical University of South Carolina
The purpose of the research is to test out a new form of treatment that examines stimulation of a nerve in the participant's ear. This is called transcutaneous (through the skin) auricular (ear) vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) which means that the participant will receive stimulation through the ear. The taVNS device looks like an ear bud used with a smart phone or computer. The study team is investigating whether or not taVNS can treat neurologic symptoms of COVID-19 which are termed NEUROCOVID. Some symptoms the participant may experience are new onset anxiety, depression, vertigo, loss of smell, headaches, fatigue, irritability, etc. This study is entirely online and all assessments will be completed virtually.

Overweight or obese patients are particularly exposed to severe forms of COVID-19. Few data suggest that adipose tissue infected with SARS-CoV-2 could be involved in the onset of the cytokine storm seen in severe forms of COVID-19. The aim of this study is to determine the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2-infection of adipose tissue. In particular the investigators will study how this virus enters the adipocyte and how it modulates metabolism and inflammation in the adipose tissue. From these data, the investigators hope to determine at the adipose tissue level, original therapeutic targets to modulate the effects of SARS-CoV-2 at the systemic level.

There are still uncertainties about the existence of protective immunity and the duration of protective antibodies in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. Serological testing is an appropriate tool for epidemiological investigations to assess the persistence of antibodies over time. The nature of the immune response induced by this virus is also poorly understood. This ancillary study aims at assessing the immunological characteristics of patients that participated in the NOSO-COR study at Hospices Civils de Lyon six and twelve months after the initial infectious episode. Two visits will be scheduled at 6 and 12 months (± 1 month) after the initial SARS-CoV-2 infectious episode, Blood, saliva and nasopharyngeal samples will be collected for seroprevalence and immunological investigation.

Screening programs have been associated with a substantial reduction in colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality through endoscopic resection of preneoplastic lesions and detection of early-stage invasive cancers. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared as a pandemic the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2. Since then, the SARS-CoV-2 have never stopped spreading, causing an unprecedented situation with highly restrictive considerations to be adopted by the majority of countries worldwide. Health-care facilities have been making an enormous effort to assist patients affected by COVID-19, while adopting measures to maintain a safe environment for patients and healthcare professionals. As a result, the usual workflow in endoscopy departments changed dramatically, leading to an increase in cancelled procedures, probably increasing the future burden of Colorectal Cancer due to delays in diagnosis.
