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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous abatacept administered to hospitalized COVID-19 participants with respiratory compromise.
The Scripps Research Institute
Clinical specimens are collected from individuals either recovered from or with active SARS-CoV-2 infection to support process and analytical development for a potential cell-based immunotherapy in preclinical research, SRPH-CVD-01. SRPH-CVD-01 is an allogeneic cell-based immunotherapy candidate to be investigated in a subsequent clinical trial under a future FDA IND to treat people suffering from COVID-19. Enrolled participants provide a venous blood specimen (up to 40mL) to be used in preclinical studies and research and development of SRPH-CVD-01. Subjects may eventually be asked to undergo leukapheresis for peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) collection and their specimens will be used to further develop the SRPH-CVD-01 cell product, including a cGMP compliant process to be applied under the future FDA IND.
Hackensack Meridian Health
This expanded access program will provide access to investigational convalescent plasma for patients at Hackensack University Medical Center infected with SARS-CoV-2 who have severe or life-threatening COVID-19, or who are judged by a healthcare provider to be at high risk of progression to severe or life-threatening disease.

This study is a pilot randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of melatonin in adult outpatients suspected to be afflicted with COVID-19.

Respiratory infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus is associated with a major risk of viral pneumonia that can lead to respiratory distress requiring resuscitation. In the most severe forms, it may require a mechanical ventilation or even lead to an acute respiratory distress syndrome with a particularly poor prognosis. The SARS-CoV2 is a single-stranded RNA virus of positive polarity and belongs to the beta genus of Coronaviruses. SARS-CoV2 is responsible for the third epidemic in less than twenty years secondary to a Coronavirus (SARS-CoV then MERS-CoV) and if the mortality associated with it is lower than that of previous strains, particularly MERS-CoV (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome), its spread is considerably bigger. As a result, the number of patients developing respiratory distress that require an invasive mechanical ventilation is high, with prolonged ventilation duration in these situations.

The investigators hypothesize that use of convalescent plasma donated from individuals recovered from Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) will help expedite recovery of individuals with active, severe COVID-19 infection.
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
The primary objective of this early Phase 1/2 study is to identify the V591 dose that achieves the target immune response in humans based on preclinical or early clinical data.
EVIVE Biotechnology
This is an interventional, multicenter, 2-arm, parallel-group, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, dose-escalation, safety and efficacy study of F-652 treatment versus placebo in patients aged 18 years or older with a COVID-19 diagnosis confirmed by PCR. Eligible patients will have moderate to severe COVID-19 symptoms within 5 days post hospitalization and a positive COVID-19 testing.

This research study is designed to investigate the effects of a brief psychological intervention for improving depressed mood in older individuals (65 years and older) in isolation during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The treatment is delivered by telephone and consists of four weekly individual sessions. Two therapeutic methods are used in combination during this intervention: Behavioral activation (BA) and Mental Imagery (MI). BA involves identifying and scheduling enjoyable and meaningful activities to improve mood and reduce social isolation. To enhance BA efficacy and adherence, MI is paired with BA as MI is known to activate emotion and motivation. The MI intervention in this study involves having participants imagine, in vivid sensory detail, engaging in some of the activities that are scheduled during BA. Approximately 154 individuals will participate in the study. Half of the participants will be randomised to start the intervention immediately, while the other half of the participants will be randomized to a control group receiving the intervention after 4 weeks. This procedure makes it possible to evaluate the effects of the treatment while not disadvantaging participants randomized to the control group. Participants will be asked to fill in questionnaires before, during (at the end of each intervention week), and after treatment (or waiting period for the control group). Questionnaires will also be sent 1-, 3- and 6 months after treatment to follow up on the results. A smaller group of participants (10-15) will be asked to participate in a more detailed interview about how they experienced the treatment.
