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.

Aim: We aim to evaluate αvβ3 integrin expression in proven COVID-19 infected patients with indicative findings on routine contrast-enhanced CT using [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2. If activated vascular endothelium in the lung parenchyma proceeds ARDS, as frequently observed during COVID-19 infection, imaging αvβ3 integrin expression using PET/CT could have potential as a clinical tool to characterize patients at early stages during disease and guide development of novel treatments targeting the vascular endothelium. Study design: This is a prospective, observational non-randomized pilot study. Maximum 10 patients will undergo a [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT scan and CT-subtraction scan in the same procedure. 10-minutes/bed position static [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT scans of the thorax will be acquired starting at 60 minutes post injection. Study population: Maximum 10 patients from the Infectious Diseases ward with proven COVID-19 infection and indicative pulmonary abnormalities on contrast-enhanced CT (CORADS 4-5) undergo PET/CT scans after injection of 70 μg (200 MBq) [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 and CT-subtraction. Intervention: All patients will undergo a [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT scan, and in the same procedure, a CT-subtraction scan. Primary study objective: The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate and quantitate activation of the endothelium in the lung vasculature using [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 PET/CT. Secondary study objectives: 1. To assess the spatial correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 uptake and abnormal findings on routine contrast-enhanced CT scan of the chest 2. To assess the spatial correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 and CTS of the lung parenchyma 3. To assess the correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 and laboratory results 4. To explore the correlation between [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 uptake and clinical course of disease

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.

The biomarker soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is the soluble form of the cell membrane-bound protein urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), which is expressed mainly on immune cells, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. SPARCOL is a multi-center prospective observational study aiming to investigate if suPAR measured at admission can predict the risk of future complications and mortality in adults patients with Covid-19. The study will include approximately 500 patients and will be one of the largest so far. The study has been registered at Clinical Trials.gov and has been approved by the Institutional Review Board of the University Hospital of Larisa. Consecutive adult patients (≥ 18 years ) who are admitted to the Hospital due to Covid-19 will be screened for inclusion. Participants will undergo sampling of peripheral venous blood, immediately after admission. Blood samples drawn from all patients and EDTA plasma will be stored at -80° C until later measurement. Plasma suPAR levels will be determined using the suPARnostic® ELISA assay (ViroGates, Denmark). The primary endpoint will be the presence of respiratory complications, admission to ICU, and survival at 30 days. Secondary endpoints are also included, such as organ injury, hospital length of stay, and survival. Data analysis will be based on predefined data points on a prospective data collection form.

Acute Respiratory Distress syndrome (ARDS) is a pulmonary systematic inflammatory response, leading to acute respiratory failure with hypoxia and/or hypercarbia. COVID-19 evokes a viral pneumonia, which may result in ARDS as well. It is not yet clear if COVID-19 disease behaves like the typical ARDS. Corona virus causes primarily deep hypoxia. Hypoxia, on its own, can lead to long term cognitive impairment. However, critical illness also affects long-term neurocognitive functioning. The investigators will be researching the possibility of long-term cognitive impairment in COVID-19 ICU patients, in comparison with reference values of a healthy population as well as the values measured in critically ill patients, admitted not only for respiratory reasons.
Prisma Health-Upstate
Little is known regarding the effect of antenatal COVID-19 on pregnancy outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine of COVID-19 alters histopathology and gene expression of the placenta, as evidenced by analysis at time of delivery. The analysis will aim to identify whether resulting abnormal placental pathology or altered metabolism is associated with severity of symptoms (specifically pneumonia, or need for admission), gestational age at onset, and/or placenta efficiency. Histological and gene expression analysis of the placental post-delivery will determine if COVID-19 alters overall placental structure, vascularization, and/or the transcriptome.
