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.

Randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a single dose of STI-1499 (COVI-GUARD™) in hospitalized patients with moderate COVID-19
Reims University Hospital
The research aims to determine the impact of a syndromic mutiplex PCR assay (FilmArray) on the management of patients hospitalized in ICU for severe respiratory disease. During the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak, the diagnosis of pneumonia has become considerably more complex as the biological, radiological and clinical criteria of covid-19 interfere with the standard criteria for the diagnosis of severe respiratory diseases. Moreover, patients with COVID-19 are at higher risk of developing other associated infections and thus, patients have therefore often been treated with antibiotics, adequately or not, due to difficulty to quickly identify the etiology of their symptoms with conventional methods. In order to improve their treatment, both diagnostic and therapeutic, we set up a new syndromic molecular test in our laboratories to accelerate and improve the pneumonia management and antibiotic stewardship. This research will include 100 to 150 adult patients hospitalized in ICU during the first half of 2020. It will take place within the Nancy University Hospital and the Reims University Hospital, France.

The health contingency established against the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome associated type 2 Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has promoted a race against the clock for the search on treatment against the disease related with coronavirus (COVID-19). There are no current approved therapeutic options against the virus, although there is a rush for the development of drugs, vaccines and even the passive immunization through plasma from convalescent patients. This passive immunization is made with the administration of antibodies from patients that went through the infectious state of the disease and progress to clinical remission. SARS-CoV-2, and its predecessor SARS-CoV-1, have great similarities between their genes and proteins; tis allow to hypothesize that the antibodies developed against SARS-CoV1 can recognize the antigens of SARS-CoV-2. In this manner, the transfusion of convalescent plasma to patients with the infection brings the probability on eliminating the infection, in this case SARS-CoV-2. There are evidence of this phenomenon observed in previous pandemics caused by SARS-CoV-1, Influenza AH1N1 and Ebola virus. The objective of the study is to develop a therapeutic strategy based on the administration of plasma from patients with COVID-19 with clinical remission to patients that are coursing with the infection. The expected results hopes to establish an effective treatment and satisfactory recovery of patients with COVID-19. Also, we expect to describe the respective antibodies related against the SARS-CoV-2 infection.

This is a research study to see how safe and effective decidual stromal cells are in treating patients with respiratory failure (breathing problem where not enough oxygen is passed from the lungs into the blood) caused by COVID-19.
Inmunotek S.L.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the effect of immunotherapy with the bacterial preparation MV130 on the spread and course of SARS-CoV-2 infection in highly exposed subjets, as is the case with healthcare personnel.
Baylx Inc.
This is a phase 1/2a study including 2 parts, phase 1 and phase 2a. The phase 1 part is an open-label, single-arm, dose-escalating study to evaluate the safety and explore the dose limiting toxicity and maximum tolerated dose of a human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cell product (BX-U001) in severe COVID-19 pneumonia patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Qualified subjects after the screening will be divided into low, medium, or high dose groups to receive a single intravenous infusion of BX-U001 at the dose of 0.5×10^6, 1.0×10^6, or 1.5×10^6 cells/kg of body weight, respectively. The Phase 2a part is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial examining the safety and biological effects of BX-U001 at the appropriate dose selected from phase 1 for severe COVID-19 pneumonia patients with the same inclusion/exclusion criteria as the phase 1 part.

The study will be a randomized, partially-blinded, prime-boost, staggered dose-escalation Phase 1 study intended to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the Coronavirus-Like Particle COVID-19 Vaccine at three dose levels (3.75 µg, 7.5 µg, and 15 µg VLP) unadjuvanted or adjuvanted with either CpG 1018 or AS03 in healthy adults 18 to 55 years of age, who have been tested for the absence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. At each dose level, the vaccine will initially be administered to a small number of subjects. Vaccinations of the first 6 subjects at the lowest dose level will be staggered so that each vaccination must be performed at least 30 minutes apart. Vaccination of the remaining subjects at the same dose level and the next higher vaccine dose level will be administered with approval of the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC). The same process will be followed for the second vaccine administration. All subjects will be followed for a period of 12 months after the second administration of the vaccine for safety and immunogenicity testing at the end of the follow-up period.

As coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spreads across the world, the intensive care unit (ICU) community must prepare for the challenges associated with this pandemic. Providing an efficient care to the patients of the most severely affected category - intensive care unit (ICU) patients - has become one of the serious problems appearing in the COVID-19 pandemics. A typical patient's clinical portrait in ICU of COVID centers is very similar in different countries, however, the key to improve the treatment results for critically ill patients has not yet been found. Data on predictors of severe course in COVID-19 is limited. Knowledge of predictors of severe course of disease can lead to different selection of therapeutic strategy, determine the group of risk of patients for severe course of disease, and improve outcomes.

In order to inform the public decision on the containment strategy and knowledge of the intensity of the epidemic during post-containment, estimates of the share of the population infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for COVID-19 disease at the territorial level are needed as soon as possible. The aim of the study is to estimate the prevalence of positive anti-SARS-CoV-2 serologies by detection of IgT-total antibodies (IgM/IgA/IgG) in the general population of the Grand Nancy Metropolitan area. A study of seroprevalence and symptom collection, or absence of symptoms, on a cluster (household) sample of the Grand Nancy Metropolitan population randomly selected will be conducted. The target population consists of all the inhabitants of the Grand Nancy Metropolitan area, from which a sample is drawn from the electoral lists (households) in a random manner to ensure representativeness. In order to ultimately include 2000 people in the study
