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 number of COVID-19 cases has been growing exponentially, so that the industrialized economies are facing a significant shortage in the number of ventilators available to meet the demands imposed by the disease. Noninvasive ventilatory support can be valuable for certain patients, avoiding tracheal intubation and its complications. However, non-invasive techniques have a high potential to generate aerosols during their implementation, especially when masks are used in which it is virtually impossible to completely prevent air leakage and the dispersion of aerosols with viral particles. In this context, a helmet-like interface system with complete sealing and respiratory isolation of the patient's head can allow the application of ventilatory support without intubation and with safety and comfort for healthcare professionals and patients. This type of device is not accessible in Brazil, nor is it available for immediate import, requiring the development of a national product. Meanwhile, a task force under the coordination of the School of Public Health (ESP) and Fundação Cearense de Apoio à Pesquisa (FUNCAP), with support from SENAI / FIEC and the Federal Universities of Ceará (UFC) and the University of Fortaleza (UNIFOR) advanced in the development of a prototype and accessory system capable of providing airway pressurization through a helmet-type interface, which was called the Elmo System.

Testing use of predictive analytics to predict which COVID-19+ patients are at low risk for an adverse event (ICU transfer, intubation, mortality, hospice discharge, re-presentation to the ED, oxygen requirements exceeding nasal cannula at 6L/Min) in the next 96 hours
University of Giessen
To assess the safety and tolerability of inhaled molgramostim nebuliser solution in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.
Northwell Health
Some patients with COVID have abnormally high carbon dioxide and low oxygen levels despite being on the ventilator. The hypothesis of the study is that the application of mild hypothermia to patients with COVID will decrease their metabolic rate and improve their oxygenation and carbon dioxide levels.

The current research is a pilot study to determine the feasibility of recruiting and retaining 40 participants diagnosed with COVID-19. The purpose is to observe the early use of fluoxetine (commonly known as Prozac) to reduce the severity of the COVID-19 illness. Fluoxetine is a drug that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since 1987 for various mental health disorders.

The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) infusion of Ang (1-7) compared to placebo with respect to time to recovery, disease severity, need for mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and mortality in patients with COVID 19.

The primary objective of Part 1 (Single Ascending Dose) is to assess the safety and tolerability of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgY when given as single-ascending doses administered intranasally to healthy participants. The primary objective of Part 2 (Multiple Dose) is to assess the safety and tolerability of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgY when given as multiple doses administered intranasally to healthy participants. A secondary objective is to assess the pharmacokinetics of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgY when given as multiple doses administered intranasally to healthy participants. Safety will be evaluated using adverse event (AE), physical examination (including vital signs), electrocardiogram, and clinical laboratory data. Pharmacokinetics will be evaluated by serum anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgY concentration.
Pharmamel S.L.
There is an urgent need to evaluate effective treatments for COVID-19 patients. Melatonin has significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and it lacks of side-effects. This randomized controlled trial seeks to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous melatonin in reducing mortality in Covid-19 patients in the ICUs.
Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf
In this phase I first-in-human clinical trial, healthy volunteers in two different dose cohorts will be vaccinated twice with the candidate vaccine MVA-SARS-2-S. A subgroup will receive a heterologous booster vaccination with a licensed COVID-19 vaccine. The aim of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the candidate vaccine and to characterize its immunogenicity.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused major disruption to healthcare systems with significant socioeconomic impacts. Currently, there are no licensed preventions available against COVID-19 and accelerated vaccine development is urgently needed. A safe and effective vaccine for COVID 19 prevention would have significant global public health impact.
