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.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected almost every country in the world, especially in terms of health system capacity and economic burden. People from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) often face interaction between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular disease. Role of HIV infection and anti-retroviral treatment (ART) in altered cardiovascular risk is questionable and there is still need to further carry out research in this field. However, thus far it is unclear, what impact the COVID-19 co-infection in people living with HIV (PLHIV), with or without therapy will have. The ENDOCOVID project aims to investigate whether and how HIV-infection in COVID-19 patients modulates the time course of the disease, alters cardiovascular risk, and changes vascular endothelial function and coagulation parameters/ thrombosis risk. Methods: In this long-term study, cardiovascular research on PLHIV with or without ART with COVID-19 and HIV-negative with COVID-19 will be carried out via clinical and biochemical measurements for cardiovascular risk factors and biomarkers of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Vascular and endothelial function will be measured by brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation (FMD), carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) assessments, and retinal blood vessel analyses, along with vascular endothelial biomarkers and coagualation markers. The correlation between HIV-infection in COVID-19 PLHIV with or without ART and its role in enhancement of cardiovascular risk and endothelial dysfunction will be assessed. Potential changes in these endpoints by COVID-19 will be followed for 4 weeks across the three groups (PLHIVwith or without ART and HIV negatives). Impact of project: The ENDOCOVID project aims to evaluate in the long-term the cardiovascular risk and vascular endothelial function in PLHIV thus revealing an important transitional cardiovascular phenotype in COVID-19.

The recent Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), has caused a global pandemic, and development of safe, effective vaccines is mandatory to return back to pre pandemic life. Many vaccines have been developed and requested by the authorities after the emergency license issued. The main mechanism of protection is through humoral and cell-mediated immune responses that might reduce the potential for disease development or severity. Cytotoxic T cells clear virus-infected host cells and contribute to control of infection. Preliminary data are now available indicating safty and effecacy of different vaccines . The vaccines were tolerated, with induction of neutralizing antibodies and antigen-specific T cells against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The aim of this work is to evaluate the immune responses in adults, aged 25-65 years, up to 8 weeks after vaccination with a single and double doses live inactivated (Sinopharm), mRNA (Pfizer/ Biontech) and viral vector (Oxford/AZ- ChAdOx1 nCoV-19) vaccines. The Th1- response ( interferon-γ and tumor necrosis factor-α cytokine secretion by CD4+ T cells) and antibody production predominantly of IgG1 and IgG3 subclasses as well as CD8+ T cells mono, polyfunctional and cytotoxic phenotypes, will be also measured.

The aim of this study is to explore the acceptability and feasibility of a novel medical device system for autonomously monitoring of breath and heart sounds in Covid-19 (detecting and monitoring the progression of Covid-19 pneumonitis, by evaluating sounds captured through a wearable device (Senti)). As a first-in-man study, the investigators will investigate the safety of the Senti device, the usability and acceptability of the device; and ensure technical and practical feasibility of the device in a real-world clinical setting. Healthcare resources have been stretched substantially by Covid-19. Devices which enable patients to be monitored at home and direct these precious resources to those who require them are needed more than ever. 10 patients will be recruited (the study participants) in two tranches (6 and 4) who are being discharged from A&E into the community, with Covid-19. These patients will wear the Senti device. The first tranche will use the device over a single session lasting 20 minutes only. The second tranche (which will include patients from tranche one, and which will only proceed if no adverse events are detected in tranche one), participants will wear the device at their discretion (particularly encouraged to wear overnight) over the course of 5 days. The investigators will survey the study participants to answer three key questions: What is the feasibility of the Senti data-capture device? Is this device usable in clinical practice? What are the requirements to train patients to use the device? The investigators will also consider: Does the device function technically and practically, in real-world clinical scenarios? What are the key expected and unexpected safety issues related to using the device (with a particular emphasis on whether the device is likely to cause pressure sores)? These questions will establish the feasibility of using the Senti data capture device as part of a novel medical device system for the autonomous evaluation and monitoring of bioacoustic signals for Covid-19.

Airway securing through the placement of an endotracheal tube continues to be the definitive and the global standard management. The successful first attempt is aimed to avoid the consequences of multiple intubation trials as bleeding, tissue swelling, and airway contamination from gastric content that led to considerable morbidity and mortality. Visualization of the larynx and the glottic opening is the key to first-pass success requiring long-term training and availability of specific equipment concerned to that. For confirmation of the position endotracheal tube or its displacement, various clinical and equipment aids to that which are not valid or limited in different scenarios. Video laryngoscopes (VL) have been proposed to improve laryngeal visualization, hence a higher first-pass success rate accomplished. Despite that, there are limitations of video laryngoscope use in different circumstances that requiring adding of other aids to facilitate endotracheal intubation. x

This is an observational case-control study to evaluate COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against hospitalisation with COVID-19 related conditions in St. Petersburg, Russia. Two sets of cases and control will be retrospectively analyzed to compare vaccination proportions and other characteristics to infer vaccine effectiveness from odds ratios. The first set of cases will be extracted from the data on hospitalisation of patients with COVID-19 to First Pavlov State Medical University of Saint-Petersburg hospitals, and controls will be patients hospitalised with other conditions. The second set of cases and controls will be based on patients referred to Medical Institute named after Berezin Sergey for computed tomography. Cases will be patients with positive SARS-CoV-2 status computed tomography confirmed pneumonia or patients referred to hospitalisation, and control will be patients without pneumonia and not referred to hospitalisation.
