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 primary objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a single dose of RPH-104 (80 mg) or OKZ (64 mg) compared to placebo in addition to standard therapy in patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) at Day 15 of the study.
Columbia University
In this study, the investigators propose to administer clazakizumab to patients with life-threatening Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection manifest by pulmonary failure and a clinical picture consistent with a cytokine storm syndrome. This is a single-center randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which 30 patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to two study arms and receive clazakizumab at a dose of 25 mg or placebo.
University of Bern
As part of the ROCO project, the University of Bern is investigating an online self-help program for people who are psychologically distressed due to the situation surrounding Covid-19. The ROCO program offers support in overcoming this psychological distress. ROCO stands for a 3-week online self-help program comprising 6 modules. The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy of an online self-help intervention for people with psychological distress due to the situation surrounding Covid-19. All participants will be randomized to one of two groups: The first group receives direct access to the online self-help intervention and the second group is a waiting control group that receives access to the program 3 weeks later. In both conditions additional care or treatment is allowed. There are 4 assessments, which all take place online: baseline, post assessment (after 3 weeks) and two follow-up assessments (after 6 and 18 weeks). All participants from both groups are asked to fill out all assessments.

This study seeks to assess the impact of physical and pulmonary rehabilitation on patients who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 in the short and long term in hopes of establishing a best practices protocol for treatment of future patients with this disease.

This is a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to assess the efficacy and safety of MSTT1041A (astegolimab) compared with placebo and of UTTR1147A compared with placebo, in combination with standard of care (SOC), in patients hospitalized with severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia.

The effective medical treatment against COVID-19 infection is still unknown. Chloroquine phosphate is a well-known antimalarial drug which has been on the market for many years. Recently, in vitro study shown that Chloroquine is effective at both entry and at post-entry stages of the COVID-19 infection of Vero E6 cells with promising results. Chloroquine is also an immune-modifier and could distribute to the whole body including lung. Also, chloroquine is cheap and safe, and could be a promising agent against COVID-19 infection. However, only hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) with the extra hydroxyl group is available in Taiwan. Therefore, hydroxychloroquine instead become the best choice for the treatment candidate, since it shows higher in vitro potency (EC50) against COVID-19 with lower toxicity while retaining the original effect which compared with chloroquine.

SNG001 is an inhaled drug that contains a antiviral protein called interferon beta (IFN-β). IFN-β in produced in the lungs during viral lung infections. It has been shown that older people and people with some chronic diseases have an IFN-β deficiency. Many viruses inhibit IFN-β as part of their strategy to evade the immune system. Addition of IFN-β in vitro protects lung cells from viral infection. IFN-β protects cells against the MERS and SARS coronaviruses (close relatives of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19). SNG001 is an inhaled formulation of interferon beta-1a it is currently in Phase II clinical trials for COPD patients. Synairgen has conducted randomised placebo controlled clinical trials of SNG001 involving >200 asthma and COPD patients. These trials have shown that SNG001 has: - been well tolerated during virus infections - enhanced antiviral activity in the lungs (measured in sputum and blood samples) - provided significant lung function benefit over placebo in asthma in two Phase II trials. Synairgen believes SNG001 could help prevent worsening or accelerate recovery of severe lower respiratory tract illness in COVID-19 patients. Patients who are in hospital or non-hospitalised but are a high risk groups (e.g. elderly or diabetics) will be invited to take part in the trial. The patient would receive either SNG001 or placebo once daily for 14 days. The severity of the patients condition would be recorded on a scale developed by the World Health Organisation and the patient would be asked questions about their breathlessness, cough and sputum every day, as well as assess their general medical condition and safety. The study will start as a Pilot phase where 100 patients will be randomised in the hospital setting and a 120 patients randomised in the home setting. Once each of the Pilot phases are complete, a Pivotal phase will be conducted. It is estimated that the size of each of the Pivotal phases (hospital and home) will be around 100 to 300 patients per arm. The actual number will be determined after the data review at the end of each of the Pilot phases. If SNG001 proves to be beneficial it would be a major breakthrough for the treatment of COVID-19.
