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.

Sars-Cov2 has been found in the digestive tract, as well as the respiratory tract. Protection of health care workers during surgery has been increased and some guidelines advocate for abandoning laparoscopy in COVID19 patients for fear of contamination, evenghtough this does not benefit the patient. However, Sars-Cov2 contamination risk during visceral surgery remains unknown. Inadequate protection is unnecessary costful and can be inefficient if too binding. Our hypotheses are that 1) Sars-Cov 2 can travel through droplet and air during visceral surgery. 2) Laparoscopy, because of the pneumoperitoneum and its leaks, warrant more air contamination whereas laparotomy warrant more droplet contamination, which would justified increased protection.

The outbreak of a new Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), caused by the 2019-nCoV infection in December 2019 is one of the most severe global epidemic health problems.The rapid contagion of this Novel virus has provoked the World Health Organization (WHO) to classifying the outbreak as a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern" on January 30 2020 to a "Pandemic" on March 11th 2020

In patients treated for exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetes, retinal venous occlusion (OVR), or other conditions causing macular edema, treatments with anti-angiogenic intravitreal injections (IVT) are widely used both for their anti-angiogenic action. Patients often have injections for many years, sometimes monthly or every 2 months. The discontinuation of treatment with repeated injections of anti-angiogenic agents, linked to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic will potentially impact the visual acuity, the ophthalmological state and the quality of life of the patients concerned, therefore it is relevant to analyze the consequences the breakdown of usual care in this population.

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, antiviral activity and efficacy of AT-527 in adult subjects ≥18 years of age with moderate COVID-19 and risk factors for poor outcomes (such as obesity (BMI>30), hypertension, diabetes or asthma). Eligible subjects will be randomized to blinded AT-527 (nucleotide analog) tablets or matching placebo tablets to be administered orally for 5 days. Part A will evaluate an AT-527 dose of 550 mg BID and Part B will evaluate a second dose of AT-527 (1100 mg BID). Local supportive standard of care (SOC) will be allowed for all subjects. Efficacy, antiviral activity and safety observations will be compared for treatment with active AT-527 tablets vs. placebo tablets.

Despite worldwide efforts to contain, manage and treat Covid-19, the pandemic is continuing to spread. This calls for an urgent clinically-proven prophylaxis and therapeutic strategy. Recent developments on the use of traditional medicines in Covid-19 management has drawn enough attention to start several research studies. Based on the Indian Traditional Medicine, Ayurveda's community initiatives, preliminary studies, and our experiential knowledge on Covid-19 settings, we propose present study to prevent the development of COVID-19 symptoms in people who live or have come contact with an individual diagnosed with COVID-19.

The present study aims to assess the impact of exercise training, physical activity, and sedentary lifestyle on clinical outcomes in surviving patients infected with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Therefore, this study will evaluate cross-sectionally and through a questionnaire in Portuguese and English on the internet, whether physically active patients have better outcomes for the disease such as shorter hospital stay, lesser symptoms, lesser need for mechanical ventilation, and medications.

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.

The novel SARS-CoV-2 virus has quickly spread worldwide, with substantial morbidity and mortality. There is very limited understanding of the short- and longer-term inflammatory/immunological and clinical course. However, the investigators expect survivors from severe COVID-19 to experience persistent functional impairments, as demonstrated in prior studies of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and other acute viral illnesses. Notably, however, few studies have ever investigated the biologic mechanisms underlying these functional impairments. Understanding these features of COVID-19 will improve the ability to design acute therapies and recovery-focused interventions. To address these knowledge gaps, the investigators propose a two-center, 225 patient longitudinal prospective cohort study of hospitalized COVID-19 patients with acute respiratory failure. Researchers will perform an in-depth evaluation of inflammatory/immunological biomarkers, and physical, pulmonary, and neuropsychological clinical outcomes during hospitalization, and over 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up.

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.
