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.

Few trials have reported the safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines. However, these trials were mostly focused on post-vaccination adverse events and short-term antibody detection with none monitoring the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in blood at long-term follow-up after the vaccination. This study aims to evaluate the immune response in post-vaccinated individuals across a follow-up period of one year.

Patients who received the indication for endoscopic diagnostics using gastroscopy in transnasal technique will be included into the study. The examination is carried out in standard technique and is not influenced by the study. Following the examination, patient data is collected pseudonymously and a questionnaire is submitted to the patient.

Nasopharyngeal Swabs (NPS) used to test for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can cause mild to severe discomfort in addition to increasing the risk of transmission. The present study evaluates Test At Home's proprietary self-collection method based on a chewable buccal cavity swab ("lollipop") that stimulates oral fluid collection. The novel method is compared against a contemporary nasal swab collected by a qualified healthcare worker.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic required a rapid surge of healthcare capacity to face a growing number of critically ill patients. For this reason, a support reserve of physicians, including surgeons, were required to be reassigned to offer support. Given the time shortage for trainers and trainees, time and cost-efficient programs to gain maximal benefit from short rotations for several physicians at one time are required 8. In case of pandemics, blending face-to-face education to e-learning seems sustainable, with online resources being scalable and more cost effective than other methods 9.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted deleterious US health inequities. Specifically, African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans have and continue to shoulder a greater burden of COVID-19 infections and deaths in the US. In addition to existing racial and ethnic disparities are rural health and regional disparities. Given the disproportionate impact of disease in US communities of color and also in rural and southern regions of the US, there is no doubt that these at-risk subgroups will continue to experience higher rates of coronavirus-related mortality as well as other long-term health outcomes as compared to other US populations. It is unknown how healthcare providers and other key at-risk subgroups within the US will receive COVID-19 vaccines. For success in immunizations, the US will need to reach their most at-risk and vulnerable populations. In addition to at-risk populations, a successful immunization strategy will involve engaging providers to support clear, consistent, and strong vaccine recommendation. It is critical to build vaccine trust, confidence, and overall acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines among healthcare providers and key at-risk subgroups, especially given the accelerated production timeline of these vaccines. Likewise, tailored vaccine messaging for key subgroups is vital in achieving vaccine confidence and trust. The proposed study will explore perceptions, confidence, trust, and uptake of potential COVID-19 vaccines among healthcare providers (nurses and doctors) and key at-risk population subgroups (minority populations living in the rural south) and will develop and test vaccine messaging that boosts vaccine confidence and trust among these key at-risk subgroups.

This study is meant to assess the lung mechanics in SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure. A precise characterisation of lung mechanics and heart-lung-interactions might allow a better understanding of SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure and thus lead to better mechanical ventilation strategies. This monocentric, observational study of critically ill COVID-19 patients in the ICU, will employ impedance tomography, right-heart catheterization, oesophageal pressure measurements, indirect calorimetry as well as classic mechanical ventilation parameters to characterise the mechanical characteristics of the lung as well as the heart-lung interactions in SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure.

Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) contains multiple compounds which have antibacterial, antiviral, and immunomodulatory properties. The role of VCO as an antivirus to treat COVID-19 requires further studies. A previous study has investigated the used of 30 ml of VCO to healthy volunteers for a month and reported no side effect. Here the investigators conduct a pilot trial to investigate the effect of VCO towards the clinical outcomes of COVID-19 patients in Indonesia.

Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), a viral respiratory illness caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), has been associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events including acute myocardial injury, acute heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, and thromboembolic disease. These complications represent an important issue in COVID-19 patients accounting for the increased morbidity and mortality of this syndrome. According to a scoping review, venous thromboembolism and stroke occurred in approximately 20% and 3% of patients, respectively, with higher frequency observed in severely ill patients admitted to intensive care units. Despite the use of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, the thrombotic risk still remained elevated in severe COVID-19 patients, and the optimal doses and timing of anticoagulation are not yet defined. The pathogenesis of COVID-19 associated thrombosis recognizes a prominent role of endothelial damage induced by both direct viral injury and an excessive and aberrant hyper-inflammatory host immune response associated to an increase in infection-related cytokines and chemokines. The occurrence of a hypercoagulable state in COVID-19 patients associated to a profound endothelial cell activation/dysfunction can result in the pathological phenomenon of immunothrombosis. In this study, in a prospective cohort of consecutive COVID-19 hospitalized patients, an extensive characterization of the hemostatic alterations were performed, in order to: 1) clarify mechanisms underlying the coagulopathy in these patients; 2) how and to what extent the concomitant infection with SARS-CoV-2 affect this coagulopathy; and 3) identify biomarkers potentially predictive of disease outcome (i.e. any thrombotic recurrence and death).
