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.

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered Coronavirus which was first identified in Wuhan, China in December 2019. Then the novel coronavirus outbreak was described and announced as a pandemic by World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11, 2020. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is currently the gold standard test for diagnosis of COVID-19. Nevertheless, due to its high false-negative rates (%10-50), diagnosis and treatment decisions do not depend on RT-PCR alone. Clinical presentation of patient and radiological findings are also important. However, neither clinical presentation nor computed tomography (CT) findings are specific for COVID-19. As a consequence of these challenges, the diagnosis of the disease and the protection of the community health become more difficult. The investigators of this study hypothesized that deep learning-based decision support system may help for definitive diagnosis of COVID-19. The aim is to develop a deep learning-based decision support system algorithm based on clinical presentation of patient, laboratory and CT findings and RT-PCR data. Previously, deep learning algorithms with the use of widely known deep neural network architectures such as Inception, UNet, ResNet were developed. However all of these studies were based on CT findings. There are not any deep learning study in literature combining the clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings of patients. The project is based on the available data of COVID-19 patients that will be obtained from the Ministry of Health. Then the data will be evaluated for relevance and reliability and labeled for the training of machine. Following the anonymization of data, data will be processed according to the predetermined inclusion-exclusion criteria. Thorax CT data will be labeled as typical / indeterminate / atypical / negative for COVID-19 pneumonia. Also, CT images of patients with known non-COVID-19 diseases will be labeled for the training of machine. Then, fever, lymphocyte count, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, contact information, RT-PCR findings will be labeled. Subsequently, the patients will be labeled and the machine will be trained with deep learning method with the help of this grouped and labeled data. Following the training phase, the algorithm will be tested and if the machine reaches the target specificity and sensitivity, the prototype will be tested. And then, the prototype will be embedded into the hospital software system. This software and algorithm will serve as an early warning system for clinicians and provide a better diagnostic rate especially with decreasing false-negative results. The effects of a pandemic cannot be measured by only the number of people diagnosed and isolated, or treatment provided. A pandemic affects not only community health but also individuals' psychological status, education, teaching methods, working models, daily lifestyles, producer/consumer behaviors, supply/demand balance; in other words every single area of life. On top of that, a pandemic causes long-term damages hard to reverse. The software will increase the diagnostic success rates, help to control the pandemic and minimize the collateral damages mentioned above. The investigators believe that, the product that will be produced at the end of this project will be of great benefit in controlling the secondary wave of COVID-19 expected to occur.

Novel coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), this pneumonia was first emerged in December 2019 in Wuhan, China and rapidly spread around the world . Coagulopathy is one of the most significant prognostic factors in patients with COVID-19 and is associated with increased mortality and admission to critical care. Most observed coagulopathy in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 (COVID-19-associated coagulopathy) is characterized by increased D-dimer and fibrinogen levels. 71% of patients who did not survive hospitalization reported to have developed disseminated intravascular coagulation
physIQ, Inc.
In this study we will be monitoring for patient events (emergency department admission, hospital admission, admission to an observation unit, or death) and evaluating the feasibility and utility of using pinpointIQ in the management of patients with COVID-19. Vital sign (physiology data) is collected to build a Covid Decompensation Index and contribute data to a Covid Digital Hub supported by the National Institutes of Health.

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.
