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.

To date no specific treatment has been proven to be effective for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov-2) infection. It is possible that convalescent plasma that contains antibodies to SARS-Cov-2 might be effective against the progression of infection. Promising results have been shown by preliminary data from China cases. The investigators planned to compare effectiveness of adding COVID-19 convalescent plasma to standard therapy protocol (STP) versus adding plasma donated in pre-COVID era versus STP alone in patient with COVID-19 within 5 days from the onset of respiratory distress. STP at enrolment is the best evidence based therapy approved for treatment of COVID patients by regional Health system emergency committee.
University Hospital, Lille
A retrospective monocentric study with large active files of patients monitored for rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus with as main endpoint the morbimortality of Covid-19 in these patients (number of patients hospitalized in conventional units and/or in intensive care and/or deceased). The results will be compared with those of the general population based on the epidemiological data of Covid-19.
Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution "Izmerov Research Institute of Occupational Health"
This research will provide data on thermal condition of medical workers who use personal protective equipment from biological hazards. Aquired data will be used to define acceptable period of use for these protective costumes. This research will recruit 6 volunteers. During 6 hours each subject will perform their work using protective costume. Heart rate, skin and air temperature under costume and hygrometric data will be registered. Also there will be questionnaires for volunteers for subjective assessment of thermal and moisture sensations.
University Ghent
Randomized controlled trial among patients from family practices at risk of psychosocial suffering due to social distancing measures. Patients from the intervention group receive support from community health workers. contacted at least 8 times by community health workers. Evolution of psychosocial wellbeing is evaluated by questionnaires at time 0 and after 6 weeks of intervention. Psychosocial outcomes are compared between control and intervention groups. Process evaluation will be done through in-depth interviews.
Kansas City Heart Rhythm Research Foundation
Although arrhythmias appear to be common in COVID-19 patients, arrhythmia mechanisms and characteristics, predisposing factors, incidence of sudden cardiac death and predictors, therapeutic strategies employed as well as long term outcomes are not well understood. Hence, we seek to develop a multicenter registry aimed to characterize arrhythmic manifestations, employed treatment strategies and long-term outcomes among hospitalized COVID-19 patients in the US.
Rennes University Hospital
Following the acute phase of COVID, some patients may have sequelae, such as breathing difficulties or malnutrition. We hypothesize that a functional and respiratory rehabilitation program associated with personalized nutritional care will improve quality of life, physical performance and respiratory capacities and will decrease the prevalence of malnutrition among those patients.
University Hospital, Toulouse
The consequences of COVID-19 in these already fragile patients should be evaluated. It will be important to appreciate the confinement consequences imposed on the patient on the course and impact of the disease. These consequences can be assessed by the end of confinement and 6 months after the latter is lifted.

Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by SARS-CoV-2, a plus-sense single-stranded RNA virus. After an incubation period, which typically lasts for 5-6 days, COVID-19 patients present with a mild illness that lasts for a few days. Common symptoms are reminiscent of the flu, and include fever, dry cough and dyspnea. A large percentage of patients resolve the infection whereas others progress onto adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) which impedes gas exchange between the alveolar space and the bloodstream and creates the need for assisted respiration. The objective of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of CARDIO supplementation in the recovery of those with COVID-19 infection following the guidance from public health by reducing the need for mechanical respiratory support, alleviating respiratory symptoms and reducing mortality.

Severe Acute respiratory syndrome coronovirus (SARS-CoV-2) was first described in Wuhan in December 2019. It quickly spread to rest of the world and was declared pandemic by World health organisation. Initial case series focused on lung involvement in the form alveolar haemorrhages and respiratory failure. However, subsequently, there have been reports of kidney involvement resulting in severe acute kidney injury. However, the reported incidence from Chinese data has been less than 5% and detailed epidemiology of AKI in COVID-19 disease is lacking.
Columbia University
The purpose of this study is to retrospectively review clinical data to determine whether awake proning improves oxygenation in spontaneously breathing patients with COVID-19 severe hypoxemic respiratory failure.
