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 aim of this study is to test whether Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCMs) are effective and safe for treating COVID-19 infection. After the enrolment of approximately 30 subjects, the recruitment will be paused, and planned interim analysis will be performed to preliminarily investigate the efficacy and safety of TCMs in patients infected with COVID-19.

In December 2019, Wuhan, in Hubei province, China, became the center of an outbreak of pneumonia of unknown cause. In a short time, Chinese scientists had shared the genome information of a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) from these pneumonia patients and developed a real-time reverse transcription PCR (real-time RT-PCR) diagnostic assay. Given no specific antiviral therapy for COVID-19 and the availability of remdesvir as a potential antiviral agent based on pre-clinical studies in SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV infections, this randomized, controlled, double blind trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of remdesivir in patients hospitalized with mild or moderate COVID-19.

At present, there is no specific and effective antiviral therapy.In this study, an open, prospective/retrospective, randomized controlled cohort study was designed to compare the efficacy of three antiviral drugs in the treatment of 2019-nCoV pneumonia by studying the efficacy of abidol hydrochloride, oseltamivir and lopinavir/ritonavir in the treatment of 2019-nCoV viral pneumonia, and to explore effective antiviral drugs for new coronavirus. To provide reliable evidence-based medicine basis for the treatment of viral pneumonia caused by new coronavirus infection.

At present, there is no specific and effective antiviral therapy.In this study, an open, prospective/retrospective, randomized controlled cohort study was designed to compare the efficacy of two therapeutic schemes(abidol hydrochloride,abidol hydrochloride combined with interferon atomization)in the treatment of 2019-nCoV viral pneumonia, so as to provide reliable evidence-based medicine for the treatment of viral pneumonia caused by 2019-nCoV.

In this multi-center, randomized, control study, the investigators will evaluate the efficacy and safety of glucocorticoid in combination with standard care for COVID-19 patents with Severe acute respiratory failure.

Sepsis, including viral infections, are major causes of death worldwide. Studies show that in 2017, the number of sepsis patients worldwide reached as high as 48.9 million, of which 11 million patients died. Studies in China also showed that more than 1 million patients died of sepsis in 2015. Previous studies have suggested that sepsis are often secondary to excessive inflammatory response syndrome. However, treatment measures targeting excessive inflammatory response failed to effectively improve the prognosis of patients. PD-1 and PD-L1 are key mediators in T cell depletion in sepsis patients. Therefore, the investigators try to performe a clinical research to investigate the efficacy of PD-1 and thymosin in patients with severe pneumonia associated with lymphocytopenia in 2019 novel coronavirus infection.

The new coronavirus pneumonia is an acute infectious pneumonia. The pathogen is a previously unknown new coronavirus, namely 2019 new coronavirus (2019 novel coronavirus, 2019 nCoV). However, there is no specific anti-viral drug. It has been found that the specific antibodies against virus antigen are produced after these patients were cured, which could block the infection of 2019 nCoV on the host cells. At present, immunoadsorption is the most direct, rapid and effective method to separate immunoglobulin from the cured patients. Therefore, the study aims to prepare the immunoglobulin from 2019-ncov pneumonia cured patients, evaluate the efficacy and safety of the immunoglobulin in 2019-ncov pneumonia cured patients on the treatment of acute severe 2019-ncov pneumonia, and provide a new strategy for the treatment of 2019-ncov pneumonia.

New coronavirus infection is an important cause of public health emergencies at home and abroad, which seriously affects people's health and social stability. The outbreak of SRAR-COV in China in 2003 caused serious social impact. From January 2002 to August 7, 2003, there were a total of 8,422 cases worldwide, involving 32 countries and regions, of which 919 cases were fatal, with a fatality rate of nearly 11%. The fatality rate of elderly patients and patients with underlying diseases was even more high.There is no precise and effective treatment for coronavirus infection. In vitro, IFN-α2β has inhibitory effects on MERS-CoV and closely related coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) -CoV. A study showed the effects of interferon-α2β and ribavirin on the replication of nCoV isolates hCoV-EMC / 2012 in Vero and LLC-MK2 cells. The combined application may be useful for the management of patients with nCoV infection in the future. At present, the combination therapy of interferon α2β and ribavirin has been successfully applied in the initial treatment and prevention of SARS and MERS.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of recombinant human interferon α1β in treating patients with new coronavirus infection in Wuhan.
