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 study's purpose is to demonstrate the ability of an mHealth platform as a feasible way of sharing information in a time of restricted movement in order to inform future studies.
Medipol University
In this study; it was aimed to compare the physical activity levels of students who continued their university education face-to-face before the COVID-19 lockdown, and the values of physical activity levels related to health, physical activity levels and health-related physical fitness parameters in the post-lockdown period.
University Hospital, Grenoble
Phase 1: 25 patients with a PCR-based diagnosis of Covid-19 will be be included to give 500 microliters of saliva and a 3 ml sample of blood for proteomic analysis; a drop of blood will also be put in a device connected to a silica matrix to perform spectrometric analyses. 25 patients with a non-Covid-19 respiratory infection will be included for the same samples. The proteomic analyses will be performed from classicaly draught blood, blood drop on silica, and saliva, to search for discriminating profiles between Covid-19 and non-Covid-19. Phase 2: 150 patients with a suspected Covid-19 will be included at the same time than the Covid-19PCR is performed ; they will have a sample of saliva and of a drop of blood for proteomic analysis, whose results will be matched with PCR results.
Guangzhou Institute of Respiratory Disease
This study is a multicenter, randomized, open, parallel-controlled study. Qualified subjects will randomly be assigned to the experimental arm or the control arm according to the ratio of 1:1, with age (> 60 years or ≤ 60 years), smoking status (yes/no) and forced expiratory volume in one second/prediction (FEV1 %pred > 60% or ≤ 60%) as the random stratification factors.

This study aims to investigate whether adjunctive inspiratory muscle training (IMT) can enhance the benefits of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) in patients with COVID-19. 120 patients will be randomized into an interventional group (PR plus IMT) and a control group (sham IMT plus PR). Improvement in quality of life, peak VO2 and VE/VCO2 slope will be defined as a primary outcome. Maximal inspiratory pressure, inspiratory muscle endurance, pulmonary function testing, severity of fatigue, cost-effectiveness and six minute walk test will be defined as the secondary outcomes.
University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
To evaluate the effect of wearing masks that hide a surgeon's facial features versus one that shows them. New patients with no prior relationship with the surgeon will be asked questions regarding communication and trust with the surgeon.
Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations
The purpose of this Phase 2a, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of INO-4700 administered by intradermal (ID) injection followed by electroporation (EP) using the CELLECTRA™ 2000 device in healthy adult volunteers for Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infection. This study is divided into 2 parts: Part 1- dose finding stage and Part 2- dose expansion stage.

The current COVID-19 pandemic is the biggest global healthcare challenge in the last century, and the number of cases in the next 12 months is likely to increase. There is currently no proven treatment, chemoprophylaxis or vaccine against COVID-19, which exhibits a wide clinical spectrum from asymptomatic carriage to mild upper respiratory tract infection, severe viral pneumonia to acute respiratory distress syndrome and death. Key workers are at high risk of exposure highlighting the need for effective preventative strategies. SARS-CoV-2 is a positive-sense single-stranded enveloped RNA virus which transmits via droplets, aerosols and direct contact, to reach their target naso- and oropharyngeal epithelial cells through initial electrostatic interactions to cell surface heparan sulphate (HS) proteoglycans. Carrageenan mimics cell surface HS, thereby trapping the virus to allow mucociliary clearance and has demonstrated anti-viral activity in-vitro and in a number of common cold clinical trials when administered as a nasal spray. ICE-COVID a randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled phase III trial of the prophylactic efficacy of iota-carrageenan nasal and throat spray in preventing COVID-19 illness in at risk healthcare professionals. Participants (n=240) will be randomly allocated to either the treatment arm (verum Coldamaris plus, 0.12% iota-carrageenan plus 0.04% Kappa-Carrageenan in 0.5% saline) or placebo (Coldamaris sine, saline 0.5%) arm. The study's primary objective is the prevention of COVID-19 infection, confirmed by PCR swab or documented seroconversion. Secondary objectives are to determine if carrageenan sprays reduce the clinical severity of COVID-19 and symptomatic acute respiratory infection of other aetiologies (non-SARS-CoV-2).

The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered extremely high hospitalization rates where mitigation strategies are urgently necessary to aid vulnerable Hispanic and Latino populations who are experiencing health disparities as well as high type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence with poor clinical outcomes when compared to non-Hispanic populations. The supplemental Dulce Digital-COVID Aware (DD-CA) intervention addresses specific barriers in diverse underserved Hispanic and Latino communities to improve glucose control and lower transmission of COVID-19 during a highly vulnerable period post hospitalization discharge, to reduce hospital readmission rates. This supplement will integrate COVID educational messaging with glucose management messaging within a low-cost, easily adoptable digital texting platform and offer critical information in a culturally and linguistically relevant manner to address specific barriers in diverse underserved communities.

Ultrasounds are usually done by a specially trained health professional in the hospital or emergency department (ED) setting. Using a novel single-probe device, the ultrasound can be plugged into an iOS / Android device. The purpose of this research is to assess the usefulness of lung ultrasound imaging, performed by the patient in the home setting for the management of the COVID-19 disease using this novel highly-portable ultrasound.
