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.

In order to prevent reinfection, it is needed to detect the cellular-mediated immune response to the Sars-CoV-2 infection. The first goal of this study will be to detect the cellular-mediated immune response in patients affected by COVID-19 (with or without vaccination) and healthy subjects who undergone vaccination program. The second goal of this study will be to identify the genetic and epigenetic biomarkers that influence individual immunological response and clinical evolution to the severe manifestations of the COVID-19.

In this trial, we are evaluating the safety and tolerability of a new investigational DNA vaccine to protect against SARS CoV-2 virus, called COVIGEN, that is developed by a company called BioNet-Asia. A device will be used to inject the vaccine that does not require the use of a needle (needle-free injection made by a company called Pharmajet). For delivery into the skin (intradermally) a device called "Tropis" will be used, and for delivery into the muscle (intramuscularly) a device called "Stratis" will be used. This is a 2 part study In Part A vaccine naive participants will be given 2 vaccinations, either two active vaccines or two placebo vaccines on Day 1 and Day 29. COVIGEN C19 vaccine will be used in Part A In Part B participants who have previously received a 2-dose primary COVID vaccine schedule will be given a booster dose of active vaccine. COVIGEN C20 vaccine will be used in Part B. Participants in part A and B will be followed up using a combination of on-site and telephone visits for assessment of safety and immunogenicity for 12 months from 1st vaccination.

Coronavirus 19 (COVID-19) is a viral respiratory disease that was identified in December 2019 after the first cases in China, spreading rapidly until reaching pandemic status, causing the collapse of numerous health systems and strong economic and social impact. By the end of April 2020, 3.08 million cases, and more than 214 thousand deaths were already recorded. The treatment so far has not been established and there are several clinical trials testing known drugs that have antiviral activity in vitro, due to the urgency that the global situation imposes. Medicines with specific actions can take years to be discovered, while a vaccine also takes a long time. Recently, it has been shown that the worsening of Coronavirus infection may be related to the formation of micro clots in blood vessels and anticoagulants have been used as adjuvants in the treatment. This study is justified by conducting a pilot study that showed an in vitro antiviral action (anti-COVID-19) of high molecular weight heparin. Methods: A phase I / II clinical trial will be conducted. 40 participants will be included in two arms. Participants allocated to Group 1 (control) will receive inhalation with 0.9% saline applied 4/4 hours, for 7 days. Participants allocated to Group 2 (intervention) will receive high molecular weight inhaled heparin (250ug / mL 0.9% SF), at a 4/4 hour dose, for 7 days. The outcomes of interest will be safety (absence of moderate or serious adverse events) and effectiveness (measured in a score of 7 points, with 1 absence of limitations and 7, death). Expected results: The development of a new therapeutic option for COVID-19 is expected, with the possibility of use in other serious coronavirus diseases, to be subsequently tested in phase III studies.

This early phase I trial identifies the feasibility, possible benefits and/or side effects of administering SARS-CoV-2 specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in treating cancer patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, the virus responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2 Specific CTLs are a type of immune cells that are made from donated blood cells grown in the laboratory and are designed to kill cells infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus. Giving CTLs may help control the COVID-19 in cancer patients.

Background: Conventional face-to-face in-hospital mobility program (MP) is challenging for COVID-19 patients because of its associated risk of infection to hospital staff, staffing shortages as well as indirect risk of exposure to other hospitalized patients. Exergames are digital or web-based games that use body movement to promote physical activity and generally involve strength, balance, and flexibility exercises. The tele-exergame MP, developed by the team, uses a remotely supervised and game-based approach, which helps to increase patient motivation and engagement in a cognitively demanding exercise program. Objectives: To demonstrate the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of the Tele-Exergame mobility program in COVID-19 or PUI (persons under investigation), during hospitalization and examine post-hospitalization outcomes. Research Design: Prospective randomized

SUMMARY Rationale: Allied health professionals (i.e., dietitians, exercise therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech and language therapists) might play an important role in the recovery of patients with COVID-19 who experience limitations in daily physical functioning and participation. However, the evidence base for allied healthcare in patients with COVID-19 has yet to be established. To facilitate care for people recovering from COVID-19 and to establish this evidence base, the Dutch ministry has created a temporary regulation for primary care allied healthcare specifically for patients with COVID-19. Objective: This study is setup alongside the temporary regulation and aims to evaluate the longitudinal recovery trajectories and related costs of patients who visited a primary care allied healthcare professional for the management of severe symptoms and activity limitations and/or participation restrictions related to COVID-19. Study design: Prospective cohort study. Study population: 1,315 adult patients recovering from COVID-19 with severe symptoms and activity limitations and/or participation restrictions, and who are referred to a primary care allied health professional by a general practitioner or medical specialist within four months of the start of the disease will be eligible for this study. Intervention (if applicable): Although the nature of this study is non-experimental, the allied healthcare intervention can be considered experimental due to the novelty of the disease. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome domain of this study is participation measured with the Utrechtse Schaal voor Revalidatie - Participatie (USER-P). The primary endpoint is set at 6 months. A 5 point difference will be considered clinically relevant for patients with COVID-19. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: There are no specific risks involved with participation in this study, as it entails the completion of questionnaires over the timeframe of one year (at the start of the treatment, the end of the treatment, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months). The load of the survey will be highest at months 3, 6 and 12 with a total of 74 survey items. Input from patient representatives suggested that this number of items was feasible, especially because participants are allowed to complete the survey over a number of days. Finally, none of the items in the survey are considered emotionally distressing. The prescribed interventions are conform the recommendations of the best available evidence and are in line with usual allied healthcare interventions. Therefore, risks are likely to be negligible conform usual allied healthcare.
