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 study will refine and pilot the feasibility of introducing a thermal imaging test to detect fever in 100 patients being triaged within the Emergency Department. The only additional research requirement for the patient is to have a thermal image of their face taken. Other triage tests will be routine. The aims of the feasibility study are to: - Understand the acceptability of introducing the intervention within the Emergency Department setting - Establish indicative patient recruitment numbers per week - Determine the likely proportion of patients recruited from this group who have a high temperature - Provide preliminary evidence that the technology can identify a high temperature in this diverse group of patients - Provide preliminary data for machine learning training to support classification of patients as being with or without fever The feasibility study will then inform the design and size of larger study to further develop and validate the the thermal imaging screening test to provide a 'with/ without' fever result.

The primary objective of this study is determine the safety and efficacy of ACT-20-MSC (allogenic human umbilical derived mesenchymal stem cells) and ACT-20-CM (allogenic human umbilical derived mesenchymal stem cells in conditioned media) in patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 pneumonia.

COVID-19 pandemic is a severe viral sepsis characterized by the occurrence of Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) whose pathophysiology is little described
Region Skane
We aim to investigate whether the use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure using a Helmet device (Helmet CPAP) will increase the number of days alive and free of ventilator within 28 days compared to the use of a High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) in patients admitted to Helsingborg Hospital, Sweden, suffering from COVID-19 and an acute hypoxic respiratory failure.

A randomized, open-label, multicenter, three-arm clinical trial to study the efficacy and safety of passive immunotherapy (convalescent plasma and anti-COVID-19 human immunoglobulin) compared to the standard treatment in Colombia.

No specific therapeutic agents or vaccines for COVID-19 are available. Several therapies, are under investigation, but the antiviral efficacy of these drugs is not yet known. The use of convalescent plasma was recommended as an empirical treatment during outbreaks of Ebola virus in 2014, and a protocol for treatment of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus with convalescent plasma was established in 2015. Accordingly, we hypothesized that use of convalescent plasma transfusion could be beneficial in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. This is a multicenter prospective randomized clinical trial to evaluate safety and efficacy of early use of convalescent plasma in patients with SARS-CoV2 pneumonia. Primary endpoint will be the efficacy, evaluated as the need of invasive mechanical ventilation defined by PaO2/FiO2 ratio
ProofPilot
Radish Health and ProofPilot in coordination with Sanesco are running this study to help establish whether the Premier Biotech COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test Cassette (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma Authorized for distribution under emergency use authorization - though not yet FDA reviewed) can be conducted effectively at home to detect COVID-19 antibodies among individuals who have tested positive, or suspect they have previous contracted from COVID-19 and recovered. The study also aims to examine how the results of those tests change social-distancing behaviors and general anxiety over 8 weeks post-test.
Hvidovre University Hospital
The aim of the present study is to examine whether cerebral oxygenation could be a more useful parameter than peripheral oxygen saturation to guide clinical titration of permissive hypoxemia in COVID-19 ARDS patients
Institut National de la Santé Et de la Recherche Médicale, France
This study aims to quantify and follow the cumulative incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the French population using serological tests and to assess the determinants of infection from Constances, E3N-E4N, ELFE-Epipage 2 and NutriNet-Santé cohorts.
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
This study aims to address the following objectives: 1. To determine the efficacy of IC14, an anti-CD14 chimeric monoclonal antibody, in patients hospitalized with respiratory disease and hypoxemia due to SARS-CoV-2, in terms of improving the time to resolution of disease. 2. To determine the efficacy of IC14 in reducing the severity of respiratory disease in patients hospitalized with respiratory disease due to SARS-CoV-2. 3. To determine the safety of IC14 in patients hospitalized with respiratory disease due to SARS-CoV-2.
