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.
Displaying 50 of 125Aivita Biomedical, Inc.
This is an adaptive Phase I-II trial of a vaccine consisting of autologous dendritic cells previously loaded ex vivo with SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, with or without GM-CSF, to prevent COVID-19 in adults.
ImmunityBio, Inc.
This is a phase 1b, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study in adult subjects with COVID-19. This clinical trial is designed to assess the safety and immunostimulatory activity of N-803.
Organicell Regenerative Medicine
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of Intravenous Infusion of Zofin for treatment of moderate to severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) related to COVID-19 infection vs Placebo.
Celltex Therapeutics Corporation
This is a phase 2 multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-control clinical trial with 200 subjects who have never been infected by COVID-19 (SARS-Cov-2 virus screen test negative, no blood SARS-Cov-2 IgM and IgG antibodies detected during enrollment) followed by a pilot study of 5 subjects to demonstrate the safety of proposed three-dose regimen of autologous AdMSCs infusions. The 100 study subjects who have previously banked their AdMSCs with Celltex, will receive three doses of autologous AdMSCs (approximately 200 million cells) intravenous infusion every three days. The 100 subjects in the control group who have previously banked their AdMSCs with Celltex will not receive any Celltex's AdMSC therapy but placebo treatments. All subjects are monitored for safety (adverse events/severe adverse events), COVID-19 symptoms, SARS-Cov-2 virus test, blood SARS-Cov-2 IgM and IgG antibodies tests, blood cytokine and inflammatory (CRP, IL_6, IL-10, TNFα) tests and disease severity evaluation for 6 months after the last dose of AdMSC infusion for the study group and 6 months after the enrollment for the control group.

The spectrum of the COVID-19 disease ranges from benign to asymptomatic to viral pneumopathy that can progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The host-pathogen relationships and the physiopathological mechanisms underlying the clinical aggravation of COVID-19 patients remain misunderstood. The project aim is to create a prospective cohort of biological samples collected from well characterized COVID-19 patients. This project aims first to identify based on these samples an early immune signature predictive of clinical worsening of COVID-19 patients in order to improve their management, and secondarily to better understand pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the different phases of the disease in order to identify innovative therapeutic targets and vaccine perspectives.
Nordsjaellands Hospital
Prone position ventilation is frequently used in the ICU to treat severe hypoxemia in patients with COVID-19 associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The aim of the PROVENT-COVID study is to assess whether applying prone position ventilation immediately after intubation reduces the duration of mechanical ventilation compared to prone position ventilation according to standard criteria for prone position.
Kafrelsheikh University
Investigating the role of 13cis retinoic acid in the treatment of COVID-19 and enhancement of Its spike protein based vaccine efficacy and safety.
Finnish Red Cross Blood Service
This study investigates the possible adverse effects and effectiveness of convalescent plasma for patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. Following provision of informed consent, patients will be randomized into three groups: High-titre convalescent plasma, low-titre convalescent plasma or placebo. Primary outcomes of the study will cover safety and either intubation or initiation of systemic corticosteroids. Safety information collected will include serious adverse events judged to be related to administration of convalescent plasma. Microbiological and other laboratory parameters will be followed up.

COVID-19 is a severe disease with poor prognosis in patients receiving in-center haemodialysis (HD). A population-based registry of >4,000 patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19 receiving kidney replacement therapy (either haemodialysis or kidney transplant recipient) highlighted a 21.1 fold higher 28-day mortality risk among patients on dialysis (n = 3,285), than the expected 1.2% mortality of propensity-score matched historical controls. Vulnerability in uraemic patients is a combination of intrinsic frailty, increased risk of infection and a high burden of comorbidities. In patients on HD, abnormalities in the immune response may contribute to relative hyporesponsiveness to vaccines. However, patients on HD appear to seroconvert at a similar rate compared to the general population after SARS-CoV-2 infection, suggesting a likelihood of vaccine efficacy but this population has been excluded from vaccine trials. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate antibody synthesis induced after Covid-19 vaccination in a French adult multicentric cohort of in-center haemodialysis patients. The second aim of this study is to identify vaccine non-responders among HD patients and to assess the clinical and biological risk factors associated with non-response.
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
This is a phase Ib trial with SAR439459, a TGF-beta inhibitor, in combination with cemiplimab, a PD-L1 inhibitor, in patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Inhibiting TGF-beta may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread and may sensitize cancers to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. The objective of this study is to determine whether this drug combination is effective in shrinking cancers, keeping them from growing, helping patients live longer, and to see if the drug combination is safe.
