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 can cause important sequels in the respiratory system by bilateral pneumonia and frequently presents loss of strength, dyspnea, polyneuropathies and multi-organic affectation. Long COVID-19 has been defined as the condition occurring in individuals with a history of probable or confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, with related symptoms lasting at least 2 months and not explainable by an alternative diagnosis. The practice of digital physiotherapy presents itself as a promising complementary treatment method to standard physiotherapy, playing a key role in the recovery of function in subjects who have passed the disease and who maintain some symptomatology over time. The aims of this research are to explore the effect of a digital physiotherapy intervention on functional recovery in patients diagnosed with Long COVID-19 and to identify the level of adherence to the treatment carried out. Physiotherapy interventions acquires a fundamental role in the recovery of the functions and the quality of life. As secondary objectives, the aim is to identify the satisfaction and perception of patients with the intervention and the presence of barriers to its implementation (throught a qualitative research), as well as to evaluate the cost-effectiveness from the perspective of the health system. A quasi-experimental pre-post study assessed initially and at the end of the 4-week intervention the functional capacity (1-min STS and SPPB) and the adherence (software). The hypothesis of this research is that the implementation of a TR program presents positive results. If hypothesis is confirmed, that would be an opportunity to define new policies and interventions to address this disease and its consequences.

Sample Size: n=570 Accrual Ceiling: n=627 Study Population: Patients age 18 to 100 years The study duration includes 51 months to recruit patients and 24 months of total follow-up time counted from the first day of COVID-19 symptoms or date of confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis. Study Design: This is a prospective, observational cohort study to evaluate the short- and long-term end-organ complications of COVID-19 and to establish a COVID-19 biobank. Participant Cohorts: 1. Individuals who had previous asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 (mild=never required supplemental oxygen during the acute phase of the infection) 2. Individuals who had previous moderate or severe COVID-19 (moderate=required supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula during the acute phase of the infection; severe=required supplemental oxygen by either high-flow nasal cannula, non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or intubation) 3. Individuals who had COVID-19 but did not have signs or symptoms related to COVID-19 lasting beyond 4 weeks from the date of COVID-19 symptom-onset or diagnosis 4. Individuals who have not had COVID-19 (i.e. individuals who tested negative for COVID-19 and who never had symptoms consistent with COVID-19)

There is an unmet need to evaluate the impact of sub-clinical/mild COVID19 disease in the outpatient setting on prevalent and incident renal injury, as this data is currently unavailable. To capture the diversity of race/ethnic risk and COVID19 related municipal shelter-in-place guidance, the investigators will enroll COVID19-negative and COVID19-positive samples balanced by race/ethnicity from 3 different states, California, Michigan, and Illinois. Study endpoints will be assayed from urine samples mailed to the study team at 2, 6, and 12 months after their date of PCR test, with no requirement for these individuals to leave their homes to participate.

The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by infection of SARS-CoV-2, has rapidly spread to become a worldwide pandemic. Global research focused on the understanding of the biochemical infective mechanism and on the discovery of a fast, sensitive and cheap diagnostic tool, able to discriminate the current and past SARS-CoV-2 infections from a minimal invasive biofluid. The fast diagnosis of COVID-19 is fundamental in order to limit and isolate the positive cases, decreasing with a prompt intervention the infection spreading. The aim of the project is to characterize and validate the salivary Raman fingerprint of COVID-19, understanding the principal biomolecules involved in the differences between the three experimental groups: 1) healthy subjects, 2) COVID-19 patients and 3) subjects with a past infection by COVID-19. The large amount of Raman data will be used to create a salivary Raman database, associating each data with the relative clinical data collected. Starting from the preliminary results and protocols of the Laboratory of Nanomedicine and Clinical Biophotonics (LABION) - IRCCS Fondazione Don Gnocchi Milano, the saliva collected from each experimental group will be analysed using Raman spectroscopy. All the data will be processed for the baseline, shift and normalization in order to homogenize the signals collected and creating in this way the Raman database. The average spectrum calculated from each group will be characterized, identifying the principal families of biological molecules responsible for the spectral differences. EXPECTED RESULTS: Verify the possibility to use Raman spectroscopy on saliva samples for the identification of subjects affected by COVID-19. The principal aim of the project is to create a classification model able to: discriminate COVID-19 current and past infection, identify the principal biological molecules altered in saliva during the infection, predict the clinical course of newly diagnosed COVID-19 patients, translation and application of the classification model to a portable Raman for the test of a point of care.

The viral Covid-19 outbreak is now considered a pandemic according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). A free monitoring app 'COVID-19 Symptom Tracker' has been developed to record and monitor the symptoms of the COVID-19 coronavirus infection; tracking in real time how the disease progresses. The app also records how measures aimed at controlling the pandemic including self-isolation and distancing are affecting the mental health and well-being of participants. The data from the study will reveal important information about the symptoms and progress of COVID-19 infection in different people, and why some go on to develop more severe or fatal disease while others have only mild symptoms do not.

COVID-19 may cause another world-wide epidemic. This study is divided into 2 arms: (1) Prospective longitudinal observational study involving patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 and (2) Retrospective study on patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19. Arm 1: We will collect EDTA blood, stool samples, rectal swab, urine, saliva, and specimens from upper respiratory tract (nasopharyngeal aspirate or flocked swab), and lower respiratory tract (sputum or tracheal aspirate) on daily, alternate day, or weekly basis as appropriate. Arm 2: The remainder of specimens that were submitted for laboratory investigation as part of clinical management will be retrieved. Those specimens will only be used after all clinically indicated testing and confirmation procedures have been completed. Assistance from the Public Health Laboratory Service, Department of Health, will be invited to retrieve samples as well as participate in this study. Patients hospitalized for pneumonia in medical wards and ICU at the Prince of Wales Hospital tested negative for COVID-19 will be recruited as controls. Understanding the clinical, virological, microbiological and immunological profiles of this infection is urgently needed to facilitate its management and control.
