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 multicentre prospective study will enroll a sufficient number of patients to afford approximately 60 positives and > 40 negatives (as determined by the SOC - Comparator method) in the United States and/or Canada. One to three sites in the United States and/or Canada will participate over an approximate 12-week enrolment period. The actual enrolment period will be dependent upon prevalence of Covid-19. Once positives sample size is achieved, expected SARC-CoV-2 negative subjects will be permitted. This study is observational and will not impact the medical management of the patient. The results of the Spartan Test will be blinded to the clinical staff during the study and will not impact the medical management of the subject. Once informed consent is obtained and eligibility is confirmed, subject demographics, and patient reported COVID-19 symptoms will be recorded. For the purposes of this study, enrolment will be defined as the collection of the two study-specific nasopharyngeal (NP) samples for Spartan's Test. Each patient's active involvement in the study will last for approximately 30 minutes. To support the EUA, a minimum of 30 individual natural positive clinical specimens will be collected from patients suspected of SARS-CoV-2 infection by a healthcare provider in COVID-19 disease endemic regions in the United States. Additionally, a minimum of 30 individual negative samples will also be used to support the EUA from patients in the United States. Once subjects are consented and recruited for the study, three nasopharyngeal samples for each patient will be collected by trained operators at the clinical site. The first sample will be tested at the clinical site according to standard of care protocols currently in place for the sites' nasopharyngeal swab-based SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR testing. The second nasopharyngeal sample will be tested at the site using the Spartan COVID-19 v2 System. The third nasopharyngeal sample will be tested using the Spartan COVID-19 v2 System only when the test conducted with the second nasopharyngeal swab does not produce a positive or negative result. The sample for the SOC test will be collected prior to the samples for the Spartan COVID-19 v2 System as per clinical regulations.
University College, London
COVIDTrach aims to assess the outcomes of tracheostomy in mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19. The use of personal protective equipment and incidence of COVID-19 amongst operators is also recorded.
Aytu BioPharma, Inc.
This pilot study will assess the safety and effectiveness of UV light treatment in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
NIHR Lancashire Clinical Research Facility
The purpose of this study is to document the feasibility and tolerability of low dose thoracic radiotherapy in patients with WHO level 5 COVID 19 infections.
Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf
In this phase I first-in-human clinical trial, healthy volunteers in two different dose cohorts will be vaccinated twice with the candidate vaccine MVA-SARS-2-S. A subgroup will receive a heterologous booster vaccination with a licensed COVID-19 vaccine. The aim of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the candidate vaccine and to characterize its immunogenicity.
Stanford University
The aim of the study is to demonstrate the feasibility and validity of a saliva based home surveillance monitoring test for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Participants will be asked to carry out as many tests as are included in the bag they are provided, on a daily basis until they are used up.
CanSino Biologics Inc.
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo -controlled IIb clinical trial, in order to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Recombinant Novel Coronavirus Vaccine (Adenovirus Type 5 Vector) in people 6 years old and above and .
Chulalongkorn University
This study will be conducted in 2 phases. Phase 1 of this study will be a single-centre, open label, dose escalation first in human (FIH) study conducted in 2 groups of healthy participants. Group 1 will enrol adults aged 18-55 years (inclusive); Group 2 will enroll elderly adults (elderly) aged 56-75 years (inclusive). Phase 2 of this study will be a single centre, the proposed design will be observer-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of ChulaCov19 vaccine in healthy adults (18-75 years of age inclusive).
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
This is a phase I trial followed by a phase II randomized trial. The purpose of phase I study is the feasibility of treating patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) related to COVID-19 infection (COVID-19) with cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). The purpose of the phase II trial is to compare the effect of MSC with standard of care in these patients. MSCs are a type of stem cells that can be taken from umbilical cord blood and grown into many different cell types that can be used to treat cancer and other diseases. The MSCs being used for infusion in this trial are collected from healthy, unrelated donors and are stored and grown in a laboratory. Giving MSC infusions may help control the symptoms of COVID-19 related ARDS.
