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.

Stopping the SARS-CoV2 spread is essential to control the pandemic cause by this virus. A great effort is being made to carry out surveillance, case detection and contact control protocols in order to detect and isolate those contagious subjects. Since both symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects can be contagious, a surveillance system based on the presence of symptoms is not enough, requiring to perform diagnostic tests in a large number of subjects, such as asymptomatic contacts or high-prevalence populations, and repeatedly. Moreover, the speed in obtaining results is crucial in order not to delay the isolations of positive subjects. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is an expensive test which requires specialized equipment and personnel with a delay in results of 24-48 hours. In addition, its high sensitivity can mean that subjects without infective capacity have a positive result. In contrast, antigen detection tests (ADTs) are cheap and easy to perform, having a result in few minutes. They have shown high sensitivity and specificity in symptomatic subjects, specially in the first week of symptoms when the viral load is high. This could be very useful for the study of asymptomatic contacts to detect those with potential contagiousness quick, easily and cheaply. However, there is no evidence to support the use of ADTs in this group of subjects. For this reason, the investigators propose to carry out a study to compare the diagnostic efficacy of ADTs versus PCR in the group of subjects considered to be close contacts of SARS-Cov2 positive patients in the health area of Cáceres.

The study Global sponsor is planning several parallel studies of Sputnik-Light vector vaccine across the globe in United Arab Emirates, Russia and possibly in other countries in case of confirmation associated with the same medical product under similar protocols. The key objective of this study is to be conducted in several parallel studies of the same vaccine above the other countries. Using similar protocols on a portfolio basis of studies let us collect data for Efficacy, Immunogenicity, Safety and Tolerability confirmation of the Sputnik-Light vaccine.

Vaccine rollout has started in many countries. In Italy, the Covid-19 vaccine used at the moment is the mRNA-based BNT162b2 and is given to Hospital employers. The investigators undertake this study to monitor IgG evolution after vaccination in the participant hospital settings, which includes 500 subjects.

Nasopharyngeal Swabs (NPS) used to test for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can cause mild to severe discomfort in addition to increasing the risk of transmission. The present study evaluates Test At Home's proprietary self-collection method based on a chewable buccal cavity swab ("lollipop") that stimulates oral fluid collection. The novel method is compared against a contemporary nasal swab collected by a qualified healthcare worker.

This is an international, multicentre, non-interventional, observational study to assess the clinical diagnostic performance of a rapid, point of care (POC) COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) antigen In vitro diagnostic (IVD), The KnowNow SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Antigen Test, using saliva samples when compared to reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) as the standard detection of COVID-19 infection.

The investigators aim to determine the immune status of the employees of the cantonal police of Bern against SARS-CoV-2 over a period of 1 year, and to investigate the risk profile of the study participants and their risk of SARS-CoV-2 exposure in their working and private environments, as well as to evaluate the use of personal protective equipment at potential exposure instances.

Corona virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) can be a severe respiratory illness caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV2) for which there is no standard treatment in affected persons nor a vaccine to prevent the infection. The investigators propose to test whether the use of Convalescent plasma given to patients with severe COVID-19 disease will decrease risk of death, decrease use of ventilatory support decrease biomarkers of inflammation and improve measures of viral replication compared with controls subjects who were not transfused.Convalescent plasma, will be collected from persons who are more than 21 days post negative viral testing or 28 days post resolution of symptoms.
