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.

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is recognized as one of the most challenging tumors to deal with and it is still characterized by a poor long-term prognosis. However, treatment of PC in high-volume centers with the support of a multidisciplinary approach has widely demonstrated improvement both in terms of short- and long-term outcomes. The recent worldwide spread of Covid-19 pandemic significantly affected the healthcare systems of most countries in the world, particularly in red areas such as Italy, with more than 100.000 cases in a two-month time lapse. This inevitably reflected in a reorganization of hospital activities, including the diagnostic and therapeutic pathways for PC treatment. With the aim of giving an objective and real representation of the impact of Covid-19 on PC treatment, the investigator here propose a multicenter Italian observational study comparing a 6-month period before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. Only high-volume centers will be involved in the study. A comparison between the general, clinical, endoscopic and surgical outcomes will be performed by means of a global and month-by-month analysis between the two study periods.

During the last couple of years, a growing number of wearable devices evolved to provide accurate, cheap and non-invasive monitoring of vitals parameters.This connected care technology could be helpful for treatment and care during a pandemic such as COVID-19. The use of these non-invasive remote monitoring devices can help health care providers to assess patient's vital signs and symptom progression, reducing reducing patient and healthcare provider contact and exposure to COVID-19 during this pandemic.

The management of patients with SARS-CoV2 in respiratory distress can expose to corneal or retinal lesions induced by the stay in intensive care. Examination by ophthalmologists would make it possible to detect the most of the ophthalmologic problems known in intensive care and to provide an early, preventive or curative therapeutic response when possible, in order to avoid irreversible visual loss. The object of the research is to assess the presence and the importance of surface ophthalmologic lesions, the presence and the importance of retinal or optic nerve lesions, in order to improve the monitoring and primary prevention of this population

Prospective, observational, multicenter study aiming to evaluate the number of COVID-19 pneumonia related patients treated with non-invasive ventilatory support outside the intensive care unit. In addition, the study aims to obtain information related to the clinical characteristics and hospital results of these patients.

Treatment of patients with Covid-19 associated pneumonia using intravenous injection of allogenic pooled olfactory mucosa-derived mesenchymal stem cells
University Hospital, Linkoeping
The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of venous thromboembolism in a regional health care system (Region Östergötland, Sweden) before and during the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. In a retrospective observational study, we will review patient data, diagnostic data and treatment data over a three-month period since the onset of the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. This data will be compared with data from the corresponding time frame during the years 2015 to 2019.

The medical and paramedical staff of the front-line services are potentially exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, despite the application of standard protective measures, it is possible that a certain number of these personnel have already contracted SARS-CoV-2, including in its asymptomatic form. Serological testing in this context would be useful for deploying immune healthcare workers as to limit the risk of viral infection and transmission. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to prove that the serological response entails the production of neutralizing antibodies.

The purpose of this study assess the efficacy and safety of anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory symptoms up to 14 days after the onset of initial symptoms.

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of chest computed tomography (CT) in detecting signs of viral pneumonia has become clear from the literature. However, the increased patient flow creates an additional pressure on CT centers. We believe, the use of chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help to test patients for CОVID-19 when CT scan is not available. Lung MRI may be useful in routing a patient in a difficult epidemiological situation.

This project is based in the implementation of a combined monitoring system (technological solutions and medical visits) in survivors of the critical illness due to the infectious disease by COVID-19. The main objective of the project is to characterize the Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) and detect early needs for specific treatment.
