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 coronavirus outbreak is a stressful event for the whole population. Confinement measures are protective against the risk of dissemination of the virus, but they can also lead to several psychological symptoms. In children, a study in China has reported about 20% of depressive or anxious troubles in school-age children after a 4-week period of confinement. In France, confinement lasted about 8 weeks. School resumed on May 11th for primary school children and on June 2nd for secondary school children. In this survey, we aim at exploring the psychological status of these children and the impact on their schooling, for better understanding, support and prevention. Through this online questionnaire, we also aim at giving some psycho-education advices. Finally, we could identify some subgroups of children particularly vulnerable, and organise some specific support for them in coming months.

The aim of this questionnaire survey is to evaluate the improvement in vision-related quality of life before and after cataract surgery using the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire 25 and the delay of improvement in the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Primary objective is to explore ambulance service attendance at incidents involving alcohol and/or substance use over the period of the pandemic lockdown, and the following months. This will be to determine prevalence and explore factors such as patient gender, age, ethnicity or location. Analysis will examine the calls over the course of the year prior to the lockdown, and then compare this to the period of lockdown and following months.

The current coronavirus disease pandemic has posed a problem and a challenge for health systems globally. In the framework of a pandemic, a diagnosis is a key tool in containing and monitoring disease outbreaks. In this pandemic, the qPCR technique has become vitally important in virus detection, due to its wide detection and quantification range, and the high levels of sensitivity and specificity it presents. The methodology for diagnosing coronavirus by qPCR requires the prior extraction of viral genetic material, which is carried out using commercial kits created for this purpose. Currently, the high demand for supplies to carry out this technique has generated reagent shortage problems, including commercial kits for the extraction of viral genetic material. This research aims to evaluate a solution called AAA-Safe and its method, developed to optimize the diagnostic process, eliminating and replacing the viral RNA extraction stage. We hope that this alternative can be implemented in any molecular diagnostic laboratory, in order to speed up the delivery of a fast and safe diagnosis.

To measure the effect of Ivermectin (sub-cutaneous) with or without zinc in treating the COVID-19 patients to clear viral load of SARS-CoV-2 along with reduction in severity of symptoms and length of hospitalization of patients with COVID-19.

Healthcare workers play a critical role in fighting the pandemic, not only by managing the patients' health clinically, but also by implementing adequate measures for infection prevention and control in healthcare facilities. This puts healthcare workers at a greater risk of acquiring the disease. COVID-19 is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus -2 (SARS-CoV-2) and many people can be infected with it asymptomatically and undetectably. Serology is an antibody test that provides additional information to polymerase chain-reaction (PCR) testing as it is the only way to reliably establish the fraction of the population that was infected . Seroconversion is the development of antibodies in the blood which can confirm suspected cases after the fact and reveal who was infected but asymptomatic and never realized it. Antibodies are specific proteins created as the body's response to the infection and this test is essential for detecting infected individuals with few or no symptoms at all.

Background: Coronavirus (CoViD-19) positive stroke survivors (SSv) with comorbidities faces possibility for mortality. Study reports success of physiotherapy in CoViD-19 positive SSv with multiple comorbidities. Methods: This clinical controlled study involve a minimum of 30 SSv and 30 age and sex-matched non-stroke individuals with multiple comorbidities with CoViD-19 status confirmed using Real-Time Quantitative-Polymerase Chain Reaction. The Cycle Threshold (CT) and nucleic acid content in the test sample (NA) will be recorded from the virology test results. Their exercise endurance, exercise capacities and quality of life will be assessed using 3-minutes' walk test and 3-meters test and Stroke Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire. Measurements will be taken at every three days intervals from admission to discharge from hospital-isolation. They will receive their normal treatments for CoViD-19 in addition to daily Physiotherapy for the SSv delivered through E-Platform. the Zoom and the WhatsApp video platforms will be used for the interactions between the physiotherapists and the participants. A pre-tested exercise protocol for stroke patients developed by the Stroke and Nervous System Disorders research group of the University of Lagos, Nigeria will be used for the E-exercises. The exercise package will be loaded into the phones of the participants at hospital admission. The Physiotherapists will lead in the exercises through video interaction will the participants watches the video programme. Their risks for respiratory complications (RC), ventilation (RV) and death (RD) will be analysed. Data will be analysed using independent t-test, Analysis of Co-Variance, and multivariate retrogression, survival analyses, Friedman Analysis of Variance and MannWithney U test (95% Confident Interval). Anticipated Outcomes: It is anticipated that the outcome of this study will provide evidence for inclusion of Physiotherapy in the acute management of individuals tested positive for CoViD-19 most important for the stroke survivors tested positive for CoViD-19 at acute stage to reduce the odds of developing complications expedite discharge and reduce odd of death.
The Scripps Research Institute
Clinical specimens are collected from individuals either recovered from or with active SARS-CoV-2 infection to support process and analytical development for a potential cell-based immunotherapy in preclinical research, SRPH-CVD-01. SRPH-CVD-01 is an allogeneic cell-based immunotherapy candidate to be investigated in a subsequent clinical trial under a future FDA IND to treat people suffering from COVID-19. Enrolled participants provide a venous blood specimen (up to 40mL) to be used in preclinical studies and research and development of SRPH-CVD-01. Subjects may eventually be asked to undergo leukapheresis for peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) collection and their specimens will be used to further develop the SRPH-CVD-01 cell product, including a cGMP compliant process to be applied under the future FDA IND.
