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.

The current study is aimed to determine the procedures applied in the dysphagia clinics during the COVID-19 pandemic period. A questionnaire consisting of 30 questions will be implemented. Each participant will be asked to answer the questions.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) related pneumonia significantly impact patients with underlying cardiovascular (CV) conditions. Animal studies suggest that drugs commonly used to treated CV diseases may increase the ability of COVID-19 to infect cells. The RAAS-COVID-19 trial aims to assess whether temporarily holding these CV drugs in patients who are admitted with COVID-19, versus continuing them, in patients admitted with COVID-19 can impact short term outcomes.

Covid-19 also primarily affects endothelium that line up the alveoli. The resulting hypoxemia may differ from "typical" Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) due to maldistribution of perfusion related to the ventilation. Thus, pathophysiology of Covid-19 ARDS is different, which requires different interventions than typical ARDS. The investigators will assess whether extravascular lung water index and permeability of the alveolar capillary differs from typical ARDS with transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) technique. Extravascular Lung Water Index (EVLWI) and Pulmonary Vascular Permeability Index (PVPI) will be compared.
Centro en Insuficiencia Cardiaca, Mexico
The design included 152 patients with confirmed heart failure (HF) evaluated in two different periods of time: a baseline before the outbreak, and other during the outbreak of which 76 patients were randomized in each group. A care and follow-up guide was used as an instrument through a face-to-face survey (baseline group) and telemedicine (group outbreak). The primary outcome was the comparison of functional class modification observed in patients

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of noninvasive ventilation with helmet in reducing endotracheal intubation rates in comparison with Noninvasive Ventilation (NIV) facemask among patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)
University of Sao Paulo General Hospital
The objective of MoxiCov is to monitor the oximetry of patients admitted to the Covid nursery to provide a more detailed assistance expecting to reduce the amount of hypoxia in these patients.

The aim of the study will be to determine the epidemiological and clinical features of COVID-19 cases, immunological and virological courses, interaction with nutritional status, and response to treatment for COVID-19 patients admitted to treatment centers in Ethiopia. Methods: This multi-site cohort enrolls, patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection admitted to treatment centers will be enrolled irrespective of their symptoms and followed up for 12 months. Baseline epidemiological, clinical, laboratory and imaging data will be collected from treatment records, interviews, physical measurements and biological samples. Endline data involves treatment and prognostic outcomes to be measured using different biomarkers and clinical parameters, The patients will be followed up in the selected treatment centers for COVID-19 infection. For all data collected both descriptive and multivariable analyses will be performed to isolated determinants of the treatment outcome and prognosis to generate relevant information for informed prevention and case management.

This is a prospective observational parallel group cohort study that will aim to recruit 220 participants who were admitted to the hospital with COVID-19 between 1st March 2020 and 30th June 2020 (Group A - 110 participants who had COVID-19 with AKI; Group B - 110 participants who had COVID-19 without AKI). Data from groups A and B will be compared with AKI and non-AKI groups from an existing study database (ARID study, n=1125) who were recruited before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic (recruitment 2013-2016) and who have all completed at least three years of follow up. Participants who have recovered from COVID-19 will be matched for analysis to participants from the ARID study for AKI status, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) stage, age (± 5 years) and presence of diabetes. Potential participants will receive a letter of invitation along with a comprehensive participant information sheet (PIS).

Teleconsultation (TLC) being a new method of anesthesia consultation, deployed as an emergency in healthcare facilities in the Covid context, it has never been evaluated either in terms of feasibility or in terms of quality. An initial assessment will highlight the pitfalls and difficulties encountered and suggest areas for improvement.

In December 2019, a cluster of pneumonia cases of unidentified cause emerged in Wuhan,was identified as the culprit of this disease currently being identified as "Coronavirus Disease 2019" (COVID-19) by World Health Organization. Coronavirus was found to not only target the patient's lungs but also multiple organs. Around 2-33% of Coronavirus Disease-19 patients developed gastrointestinal symptoms. Studies have shown that Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SAR-CoV-2) was found in patient's feces, suggesting that the virus can spread through feces. In our previous study, stool samples from 15 patients with COVID-19 were analysed. Depleted symbionts and gut dysbiosis were noted even after patients were detected negative of SARS-CoV-2. A series of microbiota were correlated inversely with the disease severity and virus load. Gut microbiota could play a role in modulating host immune response and potentially influence disease severity and outcomes. The investigators are uncertain about the impact of synbiotic on patients with COVID-19. However, a therapeutic strategy aiming at investigating the gut Imicrobiota of patients with COVID-9 who take synbiotic or not, leading to lesser progression to severe disease, less hospital stay and improved quality of life.
