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.

Pakistan is a resource restraint country, it's not possible to carry out coronavirus testing at mass scale. Simple cost effective intervention against the present pandemic is highly desirable. For patients: Identifying an antiviral gargle that could substantially reduce the colonies of COVID-19 residing in mouth and oro-naso-pharynx is likely to reduce the viral load. Such reduction in the viral load through surface debridement could aid the effective immune response in improving the overall symptoms of the patients. For dentists: This study is important because the nature of the dental profession involves aerosol production, carrying out dental work on asymptomatic patients carrying coronavirus puts the entire dental team at a great risk of not only acquiring the infection but also transmitting it to the others. Antiviral gargles could be used by dentist and their auxiliaries as prophylaxis. For physicians and nurses: The risk of morbidity and mortality is high among physicians and nurses involved in the screening and management of Covid-19 patients. Globally, over 215 physicians and surgeons have died while taking care of Covid-19 patients. The cause of death is attributed to high exposure of viral load. The antiviral gargles and nasal lavage can decrease the fatalities among doctors and nurses. Thus, patients, physicians, nurses and dentists, all could be benefited with this findings of this study.

The main differences observed between SARSCoV-2 pneumonia and other epidemic viral pneumopathies (e.g., seasonal influenza) are the greater infectivity of SARSCoV-2, the clinical severity of the disease, particularly in young patients without co-morbidities, and the observation of radiological images related to significant parenchymal aggression in a large number of patients. The lesions in the acute phase correspond essentially to bilateral ground glass opacity more or less associated with condensations which would be markers of more severe infections. The major scope of the lesions in the acute phase raises the question of whether or not the scanning anomalies are completely resolved over time, and the possible impact on lung function. This risk of sequelae is very important to study given the large number of patients affected by SARSCoV-2, especially since these are often young patients who appear to be "healthy". In the current context of the CoV-2 SARS pandemic, the improved quality and availability of diagnostic scanners provides a wealth of information on the semiology and progression of lung disease with minimal exposure to ionizing radiation. A majority of hospitalized patients with SARSCoV-2 received a CT scan in the early phase of the disease. Indeed, the French Society of Radiology has recommended the performance of a CT scan without injection in thin sections in case of suspicion or for confirmation of the diagnosis in patients presenting initial or secondary clinical signs of severity and justifying hospital management due to the initial lack of reagents for performing biological tests (RT-PCR) and the high sensitivity of the CT scan and its specificity in epidemic periods. The present study aims to study the kinetics of lung involvement in SARS CoV 2, to study the predictive character of the chest CT scan performed at the patient's discharge on the existence of radiological sequelae at 3 months but also at 1 year in order not to misunderstand the constitution of late fibrosis after partial resolution of the CT images. The investigatos will study the correlation between possible radiological abnormalities and the clinical presentation (patient symptoms and lung function). The rigorous follow-up of these patients will allow us to set up, if necessary, early treatment of the detected abnormalities (inhaled corticoids in case of bronchial or bronchiolar damage, study of the place of an anti-fibrosis treatment in case of fibrosis,...).

There is a pandemic in the world by COVID-19. Currently, the pharmacological curative or prophylactic treatments for this infection are not known. Recent studies have suggested that Hydroxy-Chloroquine could be effective in vitro and in vivo against COVID-19. The main objective of this study is to assess in patients with autoimmune disease treated with long course Hydroxy-Chloroquine initiated before the pandemic COVID-19 had an independent protective effect on the risk or the severity of infection with COVID-19.

The aim of the study is to investigate the potential effects of face-to-face supervised tele-rehabilitation to home exercise program on walking speed, handgrip strength, muscle endurance, quality of life, physical activity level and perceived respiratory disability in COVID-19 patients who hospitalized in ICU due to ARDS and discharged from hospital.

Postpartum depression (PPD) represent around 15% of birth in developed countries. The context of the COVID-19 epidemy represents a possible source of additional emotional distress. The objective of this study is to determine the screening prevalence and risk factors of postpartum depression, among women who deliver in fourth hospital in the North of France in the context of the COVID epidemy.

This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, two-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BIO 300 Oral Suspension (BIO 300) as a therapy to improve lung function in patients that were hospitalized for severe COVID-19-related illness and continue to experience post-acute respiratory complications associated with Long-COVID after discharge. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive BIO 300 or placebo.
