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.

In Italy there are about 5000 patients with dependent transfusion thalassemia (source Italian Thalassemia and Hemoglobinopathies - SITE) and a smaller number, currently not definable, of patients with sickle cell anemia in chronic transfusion. A recent study in the Lombardy region identified the positivity of anti-Covid-19 antibodies in 4.5-7% of asymptomatic donors (Valenti L et al). As already known, a preliminary study conducted in Italy (Motta I et al, Hussain FA et al, Taher A et al) reported only 11 cases of symptomatic infection all with benign evolution. Currently there are 15 reported cases (12 thalassemias and 3 sickle cell anemias). 75% of the cases have been identified in Lombardy. Our hypothesis is that in a percentage of polytransfused patients a transmission of the virus may have developed that stimulated the production of protective antibodies. This could be an explanation of the low contagiousness and severity of the infection in polytransfused patients. Currently no data are available for this purpose. This study will be conducted in collaboration with the Microbiology Unit and involves the determination of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies (anti-s1 and s2) by CLIA method with a high sensitivity (94.7%) and specificity (98.5%).

The purpose of this research study is to find out if CCP is safe and to determine the safest and most effective level of anti-viral antibody when given to people admitted to the hospital with confirmed COVID-19 infection. Participants enrolled on this study will be transfused with 2 units of CCP through an IV. These units will be given one at a time 4 to 24 hours apart. Participants will be randomized to receive either 2 units with standard antibody levels as recommended by the FDA or 2 units with an antibody level higher than that recommended by the FDA. This study is experimental and CCP is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA for the treatment of COVID-19. The CCP is collected per FDA guidelines from persons recovered from COVID-19 infection. The plasma contains antibodies and possibly other properties that inhibit the virus. The investigators do not know if the level of antibodies present in the CCP will make a difference in how the participant's body is able to fight the infection and hope to learn that in this study.
Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Sweden
Cardiac dysfunction has been reported to be common in patients infected with COVID-19. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical importance of cardiac dysfunction in critically ill patients infected with COVID-19.

Safety and efficacy of ADR-001 are evaluated in Patients with Severe Pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection.

The purpose of this study is to measure the effect of the Shingrix vaccine on your immune system and whether that has any effect on the body's ability to fight off other infections such as COVID-19. We hypothesize that: H1: Shingrix vaccination will elevate acute and trained immunity H2: For 6 months following the first injection, increased levels of acute and trained immunity is associated with less disease, including fewer hospitalizations and deaths associated with flu, pneumonia, and COVID-19.
Adimmune Corporation
This study aims to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the preventative vaccine, AdimrSC-2f, in healthy volunteers aged from 20 to 60 years old.
Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Industrial Development Co. Ltd.
This is a phase I, randomized, placebo-controlled, observer-blind study, for evaluation of safety and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine (BNT162b1) in Chinese healthy population. After randomization, the trial for each subject will last for approximately 12 months. Screening period is 2 weeks prior to randomization (Day -14 to Day 0), and each dose of either SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (BNT162b1) or placebo will be given intramuscularly (IM).
Lisata Therapeutics, Inc.
This clinical trial will explore the safety and potential efficacy of CLBS119 for the repair of COVID-19 induced pulmonary damage in adults.
Higher Education Commission (Pakistan)
Severe and critically ill patients will be enrolled in the study (50 patients) after duly filled consent forms. Recipients shall be divided in to 5 groups with 10 patients per group to compare clinical efficacy and safety of patients in clinical phase I/phase II study. Each group shall receive particular single dose of Intravenously administered Immunoglobulins (IVIG) developed from convalescent plasma of recovered COVID-19 individual , an experimental drug along with standard treatment except for control group which will receive standard treatment only.
