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 PREPARE-IT investigator-initiated trial program is a simple, pragmatic, therapeutic strategy evaluating pure icosapent ethyl (IPE) at initially higher doses intended to reduce infection rates and subsequent morbidity and mortality among subjects at high risk of infection due to COVID-19 (prevention arm), and to reduce the hospitalization rate and complications in patients with a positive diagnosis of COVID-19 (treatment arm).
Alexandria University
This research is planned to illustrate the efficacy of Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) treatment in COVID-19 patients with resistant cytokine storm state.

Coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has affected the lives of millions of individuals globally and severely strained the medical community. Pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 positive individuals far outnumber the symptomatic ones or those with severe disease. The transmission potential of SARS CoV-2 is potentially greator than earlier viral outbreaks of SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. Identification of asymptomatic carriers of SARS-CoV-2 infection is paramount to contain viral infection because of high transmission potential Routine measures of social distancing, personal hand hygiene and limited outdoor contact activities have shown benefits to limit corona virus infection. However, the role of vitamin D in SARS-CoV-2 infection is not explored despite the knowledge of an immunomodulatory role and protective effect of vitamin D against viral infections. It has been found that mortality from COVID-19 is more in countries with vitamin D deficiency. The role of therapeutic vitamin D supplementation in asymptomatic individuals with vitamin-D deficiency and COVID-19 is not known. Immune-modulatory effect of vitamin D is likely to be observed at 25(OH)D levels which are considered higher than that required for normal bone metabolism.An earlier SARS-CoV-2 negativity may have significant public health benefits in limiting the spread of the disease. Therefore, we hypothesise that high dose vitamin D supplementation in patients with COVID-19 and vitamin D deficiency may lead to SARS-CoV-2 negativity in greater proportions of patients associated with decrease in serological markers of inflammation.

The purpose of this research is to conduct a cross-sectional survey to investigate how people's lifestyle decisions and social distancing choices are affected by the medical information they receive. The hypothesis is that a positive COVID-19 test result will lead to study participants having the greatest self-isolation intentions compared to those who are only clinically diagnosed for COVID-19 without a confirmatory diagnostic test result or those who receive a negative COVID-19 test result.

The effect of RESP301 as an add on treatment to SOC will be evaluated for its efficacy in reducing rate of progression to a more severe level of COVID-19 and for safety, by comparison with SOC alone in hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
University of New Mexico
This research is designed as an open-label,non-comparative prospective trial.
Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness of a brief, telehealth intervention (the Emotional Support Plan), intended to support autistic adults to cope with their negative emotions during and/or after the COVID-19 pandemic. The first objective is to develop and refine a brief telehealth-delivered treatment, the Emotional Support Plan (ESP), to help promote adults to cope during periods of acute distress, such as those experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. The second objective is to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of the ESP to support autistic adults to implement emotion regulation strategies during periods of acute distress. The last objective is to yield preliminary data to apply for extramural grants to validate these methods to monitor and support mental health of autistic adults during key transitions (e.g., starting college).

The goal of this study is to test whether an online, self-administered SSI designed to strengthen perceived control over anxiety in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic (Contain COVID Anxiety) increases perceived control over anxiety more than a placebo, hand-washing-plan SSI (Remain COVID Free) in a weighted-probability sample of the United States (N = 500).
Karolinska Institutet
This research study is designed to investigate the effects of a remotely delivered simple cognitive task (a memory cue followed by playing the computer game "Tetris" with mental rotation instructions) on intrusive memories ("flashbacks") and other symptoms after a traumatic event(s). Hospital staff who experienced a work-related traumatic event(s) during the COVID-19 pandemic will be randomly allocated to either the simple cognitive task intervention or control. Randomization to assigned intervention occurs on Day 1, after completion of baseline measures (note: baseline measures are not used in randomization process). Baseline measures include questionnaires on Day 1 and an intrusive memory diary during the previous week (Week 0). Participants will be followed up at one week and one month, and where possible 3 and 6 months. It is predicted that participants given the simple cognitive task intervention will develop fewer intrusive memories, less severe related clinical symptoms, and will show higher functioning (e.g. at work) than those who are not. This will inform the future development of a simple technique to prevent distressing psychological symptoms after a traumatic event(s). Implementation and training aspects regarding remote recruitment and intervention delivery in a hospital context will also be explored. Participants use e.g. their smartphone for part of the intervention in the study.

The purpose of the current study is to accelerate the use of a clinically available therapeutic already FDA-approved for other indications in the setting of pandemic COVID-19 addressing a serious and emergent unmet medical need. This is a randomized, double-blind study of atovaquone therapy in adult participants hospitalized with COVID-19. Approximately 60 participants who meet all eligibility criteria may be randomized in a 2:1 atovaquone/placebo ratio into one of the following treatment groups: Treatment Group 1: continued standard of care therapy together with an oral dose of 1500 mg atovaquone twice daily (administered with a meal or snack) for up to 10 days Treatment Group 2: continued standard of care therapy together with matching placebo
