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.

This is a double-blinded, placebo-controlled parallel, phase II clinical efficacy study evaluating Nitric Oxide Nasal Irrigation (NONI) for the treatment of COVID-19 in individuals with mild COVID-19 Infection.
Mayo Clinic
The purpose of this study is to test whether Fisetin, a senolytic drug, can assist in preventing an increase in the disease's progression and alleviate complications of coronavirus due to an excessive inflammatory reaction.
Novartis Pharmaceuticals
This is a global Managed Access Program (MAP) to provide access to canakinumab to patients with cytokine release syndrome resulting from COVID-19 pneumonia
University of Minnesota
The purpose of this epidemiologic study is to estimate the prevalence and incidence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in at-risk, exposed, affected populations. The study will also estimate the risk of SARS-CoV-2 exposure in target population.
University of Sao Paulo
The aim of this work is to conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of cannabidiol (CBD - 300 mg a day) in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. The specific objectives are to assess whether, in patients with mild and moderate forms of SARS-CoV-2, daily use of CBD 300 mg for fourteen days is capable of: i) decrease viral load; ii) modify inflammatory parameters, such as cytokines, measured from serum; iii) reduce clinical and emotional symptoms through daily clinical evaluation; iv) improve sleep; v) reduce hospitalization and worsen the severity of the disease; v) Monitor the possible adverse effects of CBD use in these patients.
SAb Biotherapeutics, Inc.
: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). SAB Biotherapeutics has developed SAB-185, an Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Human Immunoglobulin Intravenous (transchromosomic [Tc] bovine-derived), as a potential therapeutic to treat COVID-19. This study will evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics of SAB-185 in ambulatory participants with COVID-19.
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.
Hospital do Coracao
A key strategy in the treatment of COVID-19 would be to find an effective antiviral agent that would decrease the peak viral load and, consequently, the associated degree of immunopathological damage that follows this phase. The clinically approved substances considered for this study are used for treatment of other virus diseases, like HIV (atazanavir) and HCV (sofosbuvir and daclatasvir). Severe progression of COVID-19 among patients under treatment for these aforementioned viruses is empirical less common. Besides, the clinical rationale, there are pre-clinical evidence pointing out that patients with COVID-19 could benefit from treatments with atazanavir, sofosbuvir and daclatasvir.
Bernhoven Hospital
Rationale: Infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) 2 could result in endothelial dysfunction with increased risk of arterial thrombotic events by downregulating the expression of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Endothelial function can be easily and non-invasively determined by carotid artery reactivity (CAR) testing. Objective: To investigate the predictive value of endothelial dysfunction, measured by carotid artery reactivity testing, for 1-year cardiovascular events in patients with past COVID-19 infection. Study design: A prospective observational longitudinal cohort study. Study population: Patients recovered from confirmed infection with SARS-CoV2. Main study parameters/endpoints: macrovascular endothelial function measured by carotid artery reactivity testing.
Milton S. Hershey Medical Center
The current research is a pilot study to determine the feasibility of recruiting and retaining 40 participants diagnosed with COVID-19. The purpose is to observe the early use of fluoxetine (commonly known as Prozac) to reduce the severity of the COVID-19 illness. Fluoxetine is a drug that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since 1987 for various mental health disorders.
