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.

A single, ascending-dose design with five dose-cohorts of 8 subjects. Forty healthy adults aged 18 to 45, inclusive, will be recruited and admitted at one US site. Each subject will be randomized to receive either SAR440894 or matching placebo via 60-minute intravenous infusion. In each cohort of 8 subjects, the randomization ratio will be 6 active to 2 placebo, and 2 sentinel subjects (one from each active and placebo group) will be dosed first. Dosing of the next dose-cohort will be dependent on acceptable meeting predefined safety criteria in the preceding cohort. Each subject's participation will take place over approximately 150 days, not including the screening visit. There are no hypotheses for this phase I study. The primary objective will be to determine the safety of single ascending intravenous (IV) infusions of SAR440894 when administered in healthy adults.

Prospective, multi-centre, randomized, double-blind trial to assess efficacy and safety of ivermectin for the treatment of initial infection with SARS-CoV2 infection. Study arms: A) placebo B) ivermectin 600 μg/kg daily for 5 consecutive days (I_600) + placebo. C) ivermectin 1200 μg/kg daily at empty stomach with water for 5 consecutive days (I_1200). Patients will be randomized at emergency room of hospitals as well as at outpatient ambulatory care as well as at home, according to routine procedures of recruiting centres. In arm A and B, the number of placebo tablets to be administered will be calculated by the study dedicated pharmacist considering the number of tablets that should be taken in case a patient with the same weight is assigned to arm C.

In December 2019, a group of patients with pneumonia of unknown cause was linked to a wholesale seafood market in Wuhan, China. The genetic analysis of samples from the lower respiratory tract of these patients indicated a new coronavirus as the causative agent, which was named SARS-CoV-2. The virus spread rapidly to more than 45 countries, including Brazil, causing an international alarm. However, in spite of its epidemiological magnitude, so far, there is no antiviral treatment or vaccine approved for the treatment of this infection. With about 15% to 20% of SARS-CoV-2 patients suffering from serious illnesses and overburdened hospitals, therapeutic options are desperately needed. So, instead of creating compounds from scratch that can take years to develop and test, researchers and public health agencies have sought to redirect drugs already approved for other diseases and known to be widely safe. In this context, the analysis of the international literature shows the existence of an in vitro antiviral activity of ivermectin against SARS-CoV-2. However, there are no studies that have evaluated its clinical effectiveness in patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Therefore, and considering this knowledge gap, the present study aims to determine the clinical efficacy and safety of different doses of ivermectin in patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Coronavirus-90 (COVID-19) convalescent plasma for the treatment of COVID-19. Plasma is the liquid part of blood that is left when all the blood cells have been removed. Convalescent means it is taken from people who were infected with COVID-19 and recovered. The use of this blood product to treat COVID-19 is investigational, which means the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not yet approved it to be sold commercially. This is a human blood product collected by licensed blood banks. Donors of COVID-19 convalescent plasma must meet all standard blood donor criteria and must also meet all criteria set by the FDA for being a donor of COVID-19 convalescent plasma. A total of 500 patients will take part in the study at 8 hospitals within Beaumont. Similar studies are being done at other centers, but they are not directly related to this study. Participants will be assigned to a study group depending on how sick they are. - Group A: Those who require more than 6 liters (L) of supplemental oxygen but are not on a ventilator - Group B: Those who require a ventilator to preserve their life. Both groups will receive one unit (approximately 200ml or just under 1 cup) of COVID convalescent plasma. The transfusion will be given over about 30 minutes via an IV. Blood samples will be taken prior to and one hour after the transfusion to measure participant antibodies against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and a nasopharyngeal swab (deep in the nostril) will be taken to test for presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. One hour after the transfusion a blood sample will be taken to measure antibody levels to determine if the plasma caused the antibody level to rise. Similarly, blood samples will be taken to measure antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 and a nasopharyngeal swab will be taken to test for presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus 1, 3 and every 7 days after the transfusion while the participant is in the hospital The participant's final health status will be determined on day 28. Hospital records will be monitored for 90 days after discharge to determine if the participant is readmitted to the hospital.

A retrospective monocentric study with large active files of patients monitored for rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus with as main endpoint the morbimortality of Covid-19 in these patients (number of patients hospitalized in conventional units and/or in intensive care and/or deceased). The results will be compared with those of the general population based on the epidemiological data of Covid-19.
