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 primary objective of this multi-center study is to clarify the value of a CRP measurement for triage of patients initially presenting with light symptoms of the COVID-19 infection. Current recommendations of management of COVID-19 include large-scale tests for virus. Such tests reveal whether an individual is infected with the virus, however, the demonstration of virus per se has no prognostic value for the ensuing course of the COVID-19 disease. Publications of possible treatments strategies increase exponentially, while evidence of triage of the affected individuals is mainly based on the level of pulmonary affection as measured by the Oxygen saturation. To inform decision making for which patients are to be hospitalized due to risk of developing more severe affection, this study addresses the question, whether triage may be performed with the aid of a simple CRP measurement.

The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors for development of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and to identify the prognostic factors of VAP among Coronavirus Disease 2019 (CoViD-19) patients. We hypothesized that CoViD-19 serves as a high risk factor for the development of VAP and it affects clinical outcome measures negatively.

The exceedingly high mortality rates of severe and critical COVID-19 warrant the identification and evaluation of novel therapies that could potentially mitigate the advanced disease manifestations. Based on preclinical data from this institution and others, the investigators hypothesize that PI3K inhibition with duvelisib could potentially quell aberrant hyperactivtation of the innate immune system, preferentially polarize macrophages, reduce pulmonary inflammation, and limit viral persistence, thereby improving patient outcomes.
Erzincan University
In this study; We aimed to investigate the role of pleth variability index, which is a noninvasive method, in showing fluid response in SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) patients, which we know is appropriate fluid management.

COVID-19 has a big impact on individuals and society as a whole. Especially persons with (multiple) comorbidities such as stroke are affected. The impact of COVID-19 on stroke rehabilitation delivery and stroke patients' functioning is unclear.

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is affecting the way many people live their lives, including seeking medical care and maintaining good self-care to keep healthy. Additionally, in the event many people become critically ill at once, COVID-19 has the possibility of overwhelming hospitals to the point where they have to make decisions about how to determine who receives intensive care and life-support measures. Many hospitals as well as local or state governments have been working on policies to determine how to make these decisions. This study seeks to learn about how COVID-19 has affected the way patients and healthcare providers care for themselves and about their thoughts and concerns about policies that may "ration" life-support resources.

This is a prospective observational cohort study of healthcare workers working in high-risk COVID-19 clinical areas, monitoring heart rate, sleep and temperature, correlating with daily self-reported symptoms, oxygen saturations and PCR Swabs. It will provide information about how many healthcare workers develop COVID-19, what their clinical observations and symptoms are.

Covid-19 infection is an on-going pandemic with worse diagnosis in adults with comorbid conditions such as hypertension and cardiopulmonary diseases. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in those comorbidities and may contribute to worse prognosis for the Covid-19 cases.

Mental health disorders are common during pregnancy and the postnatal period, and can have serious adverse effects on the well-being of woman and child. Every tenth woman has depressive symptoms and 5% suffer major depression during pregnancy. The consequences for global mental health due to the novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19, are likely to be significant and may have long-term impact on the global burden of disease. Pregnant women may be particularly vulnerable due to partial immune suppression. Besides physical vulnerability, the women could be at increased risk of mental health problems, such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), due to social distancing leading to less support from the family and friends, and in some cases, partners not being allowed to be present during prenatal visits, labor and delivery. Furthermore, many pregnant women may feel insecure and worried about the effect of COVID-19 on their unborn child, if the women get infected during pregnancy. Today, young urban women are used to utilizing internet services frequently and efficiently. Therefore, providing mental health support to pregnant women via web-based support may be effective in ameliorating their anxiety/depression and reduce the risk of serious mental health disorders leading to improved maternal and perinatal outcomes.
Institut Curie
This research proposes to study a large healthy population active for the presence of antibodies directed against the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus and this over time. After verification of the inclusion criteria and information by the coordinating investigative doctor, the volunteers sign a written consent. A nurse will take blood samples under safe conditions compatible with the pandemic period and while respecting the protection of the volunteer's personal data. The blood samples will be taken at 4 times for Institute Curie and Institute Pasteur: T0 (day of inclusion), between 6 weeks and 3 months ,6 months and 12 months post-inclusion. Each blood sample consists of a collection of 5 mL of blood in a dry tube. The serum samples will be extracted and collected prospectively from the blood samples. The nasopharyngeal swabs will be performed at 3 times: , between 6 weeks and 3 months, 6 months and 12 months post-inclusion for Institute Curie staff who have had at least one of the following four criteria on the sample or questionnaire carried out at T0: - have had RT-PCR+ - and/or presence of antibodies at the 95% threshold - and/or anosmia/ageusia - and/or digestive syndrome with associated respiratory signs. In case of infection between sampling times, if the volunteer meets one of the four criteria above, a nasopharyngeal swab will be performed during the following visits. The nasopharyngeal swab shall also be proposed to volunteers not meeting the 4 above listed criteria in order to have a control group (about 100 volunteers) for future statistical analyses. If the volunteers accept, naso-pharyngeal swab shall be performed between 6 weeks and 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after inclusion. For volunteers already included at Institute Curie : in case of proved (RT-PCR+ or antigenic +) or very likely (anosmia and/or ageusia, and/or digestive syndrome with associated respiratory signs) between 2 sampling times already planned in the flow chart, blood samples and nasopharyngeal swabs shall be performed. Those shall be performed if time since last planned sampling(s) has been more than 3 weeks or if time until next sampling(s) is more than 3 weeks. The blood samplings and nasopharyngeal swabs will be performed at 4 times for Institute Pasteur personnel: at T0 (inclusion day), between 6 weeks and 3 months, at 6 months and 12 months post-inclusion
