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 fight against the spread of the 2019-nCoV epidemic has achieved some success in China, but the epidemic is far from over. A key factor making the epidemic under control in China is the government's call for social distance, which has led to few people going out for donation. As a result, the number of blood donors on the streets has been continuing to decline. Urgent recruitment of blood donors is therefore planned during the period from 30 April to 10 May via emergency recruitment SMS . This study has been designed to compare which information extraction frameworks would be more sensitive to blood donors in emergency situations.
Nemechek Technologies
This trial is designed to determine if the inflammation modulating effect of vagus nerve stimulation can improve pulmonary function and limit progression to ARDS in hospitalized COVID-19 hospitalized patients.

At present there is no approved drug treatment for Covid-19. In this study we plan to investigate if an experimental drug called IMU-838 (vidofludimus calcium) can improve your symptoms, prevent worsening that would initiate further treatments such as ventilation, and can lower your virus number if given in addition to your doctor's choice of standard therapy. We will also test if IMU-838 has any side effects and measure the level of IMU 838 in your blood. Experimental drug means that it is not yet authorized for marketing in your country. To date approximately 600 individuals have received IMU-838 (or a drug similar to IMU-838 that contains the same active substance as IMU-838) in research studies.

A novel betacoronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, is spreading rapidly throughout the world. A large epidemic in South Africa may overwhelm available hospital capacity and healthcare resources which would be worsened by absenteeism of healthcare workers and other frontline staff (HCW). Strategies to prevent morbidity and mortality of HCW are desperately needed to safeguard continuous patient care. Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is a vaccine against tuberculosis (TB), with protective non-specific effects against other respiratory tract infections in in vitro and in vivo studies, with reported morbidity and mortality reductions as high as 70%. We hypothesize that a BCG vaccination may reduce the morbidity and mortality of healthcare workers during the COVID-19 outbreak in South Africa.
Mayo Clinic
It is unclear how COVID19 can be passed from mother to infant. The study investigators aim to collect maternal and neonatal samples from COVID19-infected pregnant women and compare them to pregnant women who have clinical indications for COVID 19 testing at the time of hospital admission but end up being COVID19 negative. Pregnant women who are either COVID19 positive or COVID19 negative with respiratory symptoms will be enrolled and followed during this study.

The study of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) detected in exhaled air is an innovative research area for respiratory diseases. This analysis can be done by the technique of electronic nose, simpler and faster, which provides an idea of the general profile of the VOCs without identifying them. The VOCs in exhaled air in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 infection are analysed in this study, using electronic noses.
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
This phase I/IIa trial studies the best dose and side effects of rintatolimod and interferon (IFN) alpha-2b in treating cancer patients with COVID-19 infection. Interferon alpha is a protein important for defense against viruses. It activates immune responses that help to clear viral infection. Rintatolimod is double stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) designed to mimic viral infection by stimulating immune pathways that are normally activated during viral infection. Giving rintatolimod and interferon alpha-2b may activate the immune system to limit the replication and spread of the virus.
Nisantasi University
Investigators will recruit patients diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia between March 11th, 2020 and April 15th, 2020 in emergency, internal medicine and cardiology outpatient clinics, retrospectively and analyze their clinical and demographic features on admission in regard to their medications used for chronic diseases regularly.
University of Pittsburgh
The purpose of this study is to perform a secondary analysis of pre-existing de-identified limited datasets obtained from sites participating in Tier 1 (STUDY20040154: Neurologic Manifestations of COVID 19 in Children) and Tier 2 (STUDY20040278: Neuro COVID - Outcomes). The data will be used to determine the prevalence and severity of neurological symptoms among patients requiring critical care admission for confirmed or suspected novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and to determine the predictors for limitation of care in the study population, as well as, the prognosis of neurologically injured patients admitted to the ICU during the COVID-19 crisis. This study is sponsored by the Pediatric Neurocritical Care Research Group (PNCRG) and sponsored and funded in part by the Neurocritical Care Society.
University of Sao Paulo General Hospital
This is a case series of patients with COVID-19 admitted to the largest university hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil, during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Data will be collected prospectively and retrospectively. The main objective is to describe the characteristics of critically ill patients with COVID-19 and their clinical outcomes, and to identify risk factors associated with survival, to inform clinical decision-making and to guide the strategy to mitigate the epidemic, both within each hospital and ICU and in public health management.
