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 COVID-19 pandemic brought new challenges to our nationwide healthcare system, with rapid escalation of the number of affected individuals over a handful of weeks. From March 13, a first set of measures was taken to minimise the spread of the virus, which largely impacted societal and economical daily life. A view days later, on March 17, the country was put in "lockdown" and all non-urgent medical treatments were cancelled or postponed. As recommended by the major scientific fertility societies, all non-ivf fertility treatments were discontinued abruptly, whereas started ivf stimulations were continued until oocyte aspiration, where after a freeze-all strategy was applied. There is little information available for women aiming for pregnancy or embarking on assisted conception. Given the modelling of the pandemic, including the time to peak and subsequent tail, considerable delays in conception to substantially attenuate risk may be required, which will inevitably impact patients wellbeing and overall success rates. A questionnaire was developed to explore patients perspectives on different aspects of their fertility treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic. The questionnaire contains the following sections: - demographic variables; - questions regarding the fertility history of the respondent; - questions regarding the impact of fertility treatment cancellation / postponing fertility treatment during COVID-19 on their life, psychological wellbeing and relationship; - questions regarding continuing medical treatment on their own, or seeking treatment elsewhere; - questions regarding the satisfaction of measures taken by their fertility center regarding the COVID-19 pandemic; - questions regarding expectations of further treatments, with focus on safety issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Eligible patients will be selected electronically from our database and digital agenda. After selection, patients will be contacted via email to participate. Two reminders will be send in case the questionnaire is not filled out: a first reminder after one week, a second reminder after two weeks.

COVID-19 (coronavirus 2019) disease has led to a large number of hospital admissions, many of which require admission to intensive care (ICU). Post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) is defined as deterioration or worsening of previous deterioration in the mental, physical or cognitive status that appears as a consequence of a critical illness and which persists after acute hospital care. Also, there is evidence that patients who survive a critical illness have a high prevalence of moderate to extreme chronic pain. Patients with COVID-19 disease are an especially susceptible population to develop PICS due to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) survivors have significant long-term deterioration in mental, cognitive, and functional health. This study hypothesis is that a specific care program based on early therapeutic education and psychological intervention improves the quality of life of patients at risk of developing PICS and chronic pain after COVID-19 disease.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, individuals are having to stay at home in quarantine to reduce the risk of transmission of the virus. Depending on the number of occupants and the dwelling space available, this can lead to household crowding, which can have an effect on mental health. In addition, the closing of leisure facilities, including restaurants, cafes and, with the need to self-isolate and socially distance, has led to loneliness. The focus on "loneliness" has recently been on a rise, and being described as an epidemic, especially when it has been shown to be associated with various diseases as well as increased risk of mortality. Studies conducted on participants in isolation has shown increased mental health issues including anxiety, stress and depression. Mindfulness intervention has been shown to alleviate mental health issues including loneliness. However, to date, there is limited studies examining the effectiveness of a remote mindfulness intervention. This proposal aims to deliver a remote mindfulness program that can be accessible by participants easily and even during the isolation period. This intervention will investigate the effectiveness and safety in elevating mental health issues faced by the general population.
University Hospital, Montpellier
Among patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, approximately 20% have an acute kidney injury (AKI) and 5% require renal replacement therapy. Occurrence of AKI in patients with COVID-19 is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Early detection of patients at risk of AKI would allow to prevent onset or worsening of AKI. The aim of this study is to determine if urine biomarkers of renal tubular damage such as TIMP-2 and IGFBP7 could early identify patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia at risk of developing AKI.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease. Physical distancing is one of the most effective ways to reduce the spread of COVID-19, but this key prevention intervention may have adverse consequences on older adults living at home. Screening older adults living at home and at risk for adverse consequences of physical and social distancing is, therefore, a priority in order to prevent their occurrence. ESOGER ("Evaluation Social et GERiatrique") is a clinical tool designed to: 1) screen the risk-levels for adverse consequences related to COVID-19 physical distancing and 2) to continue appropriate preventive interventions in older adults living at home including frail older patients and older community dwellers. Experience cumulated during the past two weeks revealed that ESOGER could be improved, in order to be more effective and efficient for the prevention of adverse consequences related to COVID-19 physical distancing. This improvement is based on two key components: 1) Comments of Montreal ESOGER users and 2) Analysis of data. Because at this time no information is saved and stored, there is a need to save and store ESOGER information and create the ESOGER databank.
National University Hospital, Singapore
In this study it is aimed to investigate the difference between the brain response to different urban environments in Singapore before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The datasets acquired from 34 healthy individuals as part of ongoing study "Effects of Landscape on the Brain" (IRB Ref #: S-18-352) will be used. These datasets consist of neurophysiological data recordings and behavioral self-reported measures and were collected before 20 of January 2020. The same experimental protocol would be followed, given that the data collection in the lab-setting would start after 7 th May 2020/whenever research activities are allowed to resume, and the outdoor sessions after the "circuit-breaker" period in Singapore is over.

Background: Infectious disease outbreaks have a psychological effect on the general population, and especially on health workers. Nurses who care for COVID-19 patients feel negative emotions, fear, and anxiety due to fatigue, discomfort, and helplessness due to high-intensity work. Objective: The study aims to evaluate the effect of EFT in the prevention of stress, anxiety, and burnout of nurses who have an important position in the fight against COVID-19. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: COVID-19 department of a university hospital in Istanbul Province, Turkey. Participants: The sample of the study consisted of nurses working on 80 COVID-19 cases. Methods: The investigators will recruit nurses who care for the patient infected with COVID-19 randomly allocated them to the intervention (n = 40) and control (n = 40) groups. EFT will apply to the experimental group with online access. Data will collect using the Introductory Characteristics Form, the Subjective Discomfort Unit Scale, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the Burnout Scale.
