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 current study will examine the impact of frequent social interaction through communication technologies during COVID-19 pandemic in the cognitive status of socially-isolated older adults with and without cognitive impairment. Patients will take place in an experimental crossover study, participants will complete one month of an intervention and one month of as passive control. The goal of this study is to determine: A.) if frequent social interaction through ICT during COVID-19 pandemic will have a significant positive impact in cognitive performance on testing, and B.) how social isolation and cognitive status influence misconceptions around the current pandemic.
physIQ, Inc.
In this study we will be monitoring for patient events (emergency department admission, hospital admission, admission to an observation unit, or death) and evaluating the feasibility and utility of using pinpointIQ in the management of patients with COVID-19. Vital sign (physiology data) is collected to build a Covid Decompensation Index and contribute data to a Covid Digital Hub supported by the National Institutes of Health.

This pilot study will assess the safety and effectiveness of UV light treatment in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Health care workers working in hospital or nursing home for elderly people involved in the coronavirus epidemic are facing several challenges such as direct exposure and involvement in the resolution of major public health emergencies, exposure to potentially fatal contamination, physical exhaustion, unadjusted work organizations, the unusual number of deaths among patients, colleagues and close relatives, and significant ethical challenges in decision-making. Preliminary data suggests that frontline and lay professionals suffer from different types of psychological distress. These data highlight the importance of screening for psychological distress in response to the scale of the pandemic and the provision of targeted psychological interventions, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR, desensitization and neuro-emotional integration by eye movements), to improve the psychological well-being of healthcare workers exposed to COVID-19. This project is both a cohort study with the proposal of a randomized trial to evaluate an intervention adapted to the exceptional circumstances of the crisis. As such, it is designed as Trial(s) Within Cohort design (TWIC).
Stanford University
The aim of the study is to demonstrate the feasibility and validity of a saliva based home surveillance monitoring test for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Participants will be asked to carry out as many tests as are included in the bag they are provided, on a daily basis until they are used up.
Harvard University
The goal of this project is to help the state of Minnesota understand why individuals are not getting tested and potentially identify trusted individuals or organizations that could be used in follow-up work to send messages. Investigators focus on the first two issues of unit and item nonresponse, which is not random across the population and thus could lead to nonresponse bias. To do so, investigators are deploying flyers through 10 Twin City area food shelves and potentially through public housing units with information on how to answer an online questionnaire.
Withings
Currently, COVID+ infected patients who are on ambulatory home monitoring self-assess their health status simply by completing questionnaires and measuring their temperature twice a day. The SECURADOM project proposes to facilitate the follow-up of COVID+ or suspected COVID+ infected patients, followed at home, by collecting clinical signs on a telephone application and to monitor physiological safety parameters (respiratory rate, heart rate, temperature, blood pressure, activity) using connected objects developed by the company WITHINGS. This daily monitoring, which can be transmitted by patients to the doctors in charge of their surveillance, will improve the quality and safety of home monitoring.
Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey
The major aim of this pilot study is to evaluate a brief coping skills intervention for college students, based on an evidence-based treatment and delivered remotely via 14 short daily videos. Participants will be 150 Rutgers undergraduates who are enrolled in Fall 2020. Participants in the experimental group (n=100) will receive 4 daily smartphone surveys assessing stress, affect, and other related factors for two weeks before, during, and after the 2-week coping skills intervention. Participants in the control group (n=50) will receive assessments over the same time period with no skills intervention. Both groups will be assessed weekly throughout the Fall semester to monitor the transition to the new semester and longer-term impact of the intervention. The control condition participants will have access to the skills videos at the end of the study.

This study generates robust clinical data to train ML/AI algorithms of the Sponsor's imPulse™ Una full-spectrum e-stethoscope for digital diagnostic feature synthesis of symptomatic SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 biosignatures for rapid and accurate mass screening.
B. Braun Melsungen AG
Breath analysis is the evaluation of exhaled air of humans. It aims to get information about the clinical status of a human being by monitoring its volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in exhaled air. In this feasibility study it is intended to find specific biomarker(s) in exhaled breath indicating an infection with SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2).
