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.

With the spread of COVID-19 epidemic since 2019 in Wuhan, China health plans have to be adapted continuously in response to the emergency. The first publications from the Chinese experience demonstrate an increase in the incidence of COVID-19 infections in patients over 60 years of age, a higher frequency of severe forms of the disease and therefore theoretical indications of orientation towards resuscitative care. However, the first published data from Hubei province suggest a low benefit of resuscitation for patients between 70 and 80 years of age and null in patients over 80 years of age. These data question the individual benefit / risk balance of an orientation towards resuscitation for this category of patients, their quality of life and the concept of unreasonable obstinacy. Among the covariates associated with resuscitation mortality described in the data published to date, cardiovascular comorbidities, certain biological covariates (LDH, creatinine, lymphocytes, neutrophils, TP, D-dimers, etc.), the time between the first symptoms and the entry into resuscitation have been identified. The objective of this multicentric observational study is to determine the clinical and biological covariates predictive of mortality in the population of patients over 60 years of age admitted in intensive care unit, in particular by integrating functional and nutritional data from patients 1 month before COVID-19 infection.

Background: The preventive containment measures implemented in the COVID-19 pandemic are not feasible in chronic hemodialysis patients (HD) who need to attend their dialysis sessions 3 times a week. HD patients display frequent comorbidities (such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease), and immune deficiency, which expose them to an increased risk of severe forms of COVID-19. They can be infected in their dialysis center despite the measures taken to limit this risk. Their caregivers are also at risk of infection if patients carry the virus. Dialysis centers face major organizational challenges in terms of patient and caregiver safety. Knowing the viral serological status of HD patients and caregivers, the proportion of asymptomatic forms, and the persistence and effectiveness of immunization over time would be of major interest for patient management and the organization of dialysis care. Research objectives: The primary objective of SeroCOVIDial is to assess the prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion at inclusion (M0) in a cohort of HD patients, using the rapid serological test. Secondary Objectives : 1) assess the prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion in dialysis caregivers at M0, using the same test; 2) assess the proportion of asymptomatic forms of COVID-19 in HD patients and in their caregivers; 3) compare the prevalence of seroconversion and the proportion of asymptomatic forms in HD patients according to their clinical characteristics and co-morbidities; 4) assess the prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion in participants who had a documented COVID-19; 5) evaluate the spread of the epidemic and the kinetics of seroconversion in patients and caregivers by a second test performed at M3; 6) evaluate the predictive value of SARS-COV2 seroconversion at M0 on the risk of developing a symptomatic COVID-19 infection within 6 months, in patients and caregivers; 7) evaluate a posteriori the intrinsic diagnostic performances of the test in comparison with serological gold standards (ELISA and seroneutralization). Methods: Multicenter cohort study, carried out in 4 dialysis facilities in Aix-Marseille. Procedure: collection of clinical data and rapid serological tests carried out at M0 and M3, in patients and caregivers (a systematic screening for COVID-19 symptoms has been carried out in all HD patients in the 4 participating centers since the beginning of the pandemic in France). Number of participants: 800 eligible persons (561 HD patients, and 239 caregivers). Material tested: rapid Biosynex serological test on 1 drop of blood, and 1 tube of frozen serum for patients at M0 and M3. Clinical data will also be collected. Primary endpoint: prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion in HD patients. Maximum duration of participation for each patient: 6 months. Duration of research: 6 months and 2 weeks (inclusions over 2 weeks).

Vielight Inc.
The objective of this study is to obtain data on the efficacy of the Vielight RX Plus in decreasing time to recovery of symptoms in subjects with COVID-19. The study will be conducted among COVID-19 positive subjects at home in self-isolation via electronic data collection (EDC). There will be no physical contact between the subjects and the Qualified Investigator (QI) or other study staff. This study aims to demonstrate that the Vielight RX Plus is a useful adjunct to standard of care (SOC). We hypothesize that the Vielight RX Plus will accelerate recovery and reduce viral infection severity.

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei, China, and now spreads across international borders. As of 11 April 2020, the total global number of confirmed SARS-CoV-2 cases reached 1,521,252 (92,798 deaths); with 65,081 (7,978 deaths) being reported in the United Kingdom. COVID-19 is the name of the disease associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and includes a spectrum of illness that ranges from mild infection to severe pneumonia that can progress to respiratory failure and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) or septic shock. Between 8 to 15% (depending on geographical setting) of all SARS-CoV-2 positive cases can be classified as severe or necessitating intensive care unit (ICU) admission. In the early stages of the outbreak unfolding, several retrospective case studies and cases series carried out in China reported that those who died were more likely to be male, and more likely to have underlying comorbidities. Prevalence studies conducted in the US and Italy show similar trends in the distribution of comorbidities among SARS-CoV-2 severe cases; adding obesity (BMI>30) to the list of factors potentially associated with disease severity. However, the relative importance of different underlying health conditions remains unclear owing to inadequate adjustment for important confounding factors such as age, sex, and smoking status. We propose a cohort study to evaluate predictors, clinical evolution and excess of mortality of SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalised patients, with two main workstreams- the first looking at all patients admitted to SGHFT and the second looking at patients admitted to ITU with respiratory failure.

According to various studies Covid 19 pneumonia has a very similar clinical course to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) which has clarified by Berlin definition. Based on this similarity, extracellular fluid of lungs and diffuse alveolar damage should be observed in covid 19 pneumonia as well. Extracellular water (ECW) can be determine by using whole body bioimpedence system (NİCaS). The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of ECW on the clinical apperence of covid 19 pneumonia clinical course.

Covid-19 infection is due to SARS-CoV-2 member of the Coronavirus family represented by SARS- and MERS-CoVwith neuronal tropism capacity for the brainstem and thalami. Dexmedetomidine has(i) central antihypertensive (ii) sedative and (iii) neuroprotective properties and is often used during patient recovering after mechanical ventilation withdrawal. Dexmedetomidine administration could change the immunomodulatory profile of Covid-19 patients and reduce inflammatory response.CAM-ICU scores and Blood samples from Covid-19 ICU patients will be collected at 4 different timepoints (before Dexmedetomidine administration, at D2, D7 and M6) to analyse the inflammatory profile with different approaches:i) chromatin accessibility, ii) transcriptome analysis, iii) inflammatory cytokines and chemokines levels.
