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.

Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Multi-Centre Phase II/III Adaptive Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Immunogenicity of Gam-COVID-Vac Combined Vector Vaccine for SARS-Сov-2 Infection in Indian Healthy Subjects.

Single-center study with a parallel group scheme, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, to evaluate whether the addition to the investigator's hospital standard therapy of two vials of Bioarginina® per day in subjects with SARS-CoV-2 is useful for treatment of this pathology.

This is a multicenter, open-label, controlled, randomized phase 2 study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy profile of GNS561 in patients with COVID-19.

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is spreading worldwide and has become a public health emergency of major international concern. Currently, no specific drugs or vaccines are available. This study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of natural killer cells patients with COVID-19.

This Randomized Control Trial (RCT) proposes combination of extracorporeal cytokine removal by plasma exchange (PLEX) and additional infusion of convalescent plasma (CCP) collected from COVID-19 recovered individuals at the end of the PLEX procedure. The combination of cytokine removal by PLEX and CCP infusion is in onvestigators opinion more rational compared to CCP infusion alone and as such probably more effective in reducing the duration of mechanical ventilation, length of stay in the intensive care unit, and potentially also mortality.

Currently, SARS-CoV-2 the novel member of the corona virus family, affecting the world leading to COVID-19 disease. It can result life-threatening condition by developing severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Based on previous evidence a group of patients with severe COVID-19 develop a cytokine storm syndrome which leads to hyper-inflammation lung tissue damage. Supportive care is the current management of COVID-19 is and management of ARDS as a main cause of mortality has been remained challenging. Therefore, an urgent effective treatment of COVID-19 regarding hyper-inflammation mechanism is required. Currently, development of novel anti-viral agents and vaccines are the main issues. However, it needs long time, from months to years, until suitable new medications and vaccines have been developed. An immune-modulatory tetra deca peptide (14-mer peptide) named Human Ezrin Peptide 1 (HEP-1) (trade name Gepon) was introduced by the group of Ataullakhanov in Russia. Regarding its proved anti-viral and anti-inflammatory effect, Russian authorities approved Gepon for treatment of ulcerative colitis treatment and Hepatitis -C. In this regard, it seems that Hep-1 is a very safe immune-modulatory agent which can be effective in the management of COVID-19 infection without any adverse effect for the patient.

This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Rhea Health Tone® as add-on therapy in hospitalized adults with COVID-19. The study is a multi-center trial that will be conducted in up to approximately 2 sites nationally. New sites may be added as needed after appropriate assessment. Interim monitoring will be conducted to evaluate the arms and for safety and effectiveness. Any change would be accompanied by updated sample size. Subjects will be assessed while hospitalized. All subjects will undergo a series of laboratory (inflammatory biomarkers (IL-6, hs-CRP, IFNγ), SGOT, SGPT and Creatinine, conversion rate by PCR, QTc prolongation by ECG, chest X-ray), clinical (clinical assessment, vital sign, concomitant medication, other medical conditions) and safety assessment (serious adverse event). Randomization will be performed 1:1 for each arm. Arm 1 = Standard of Care (SoC) alone, arm 2 = SoC + Rhea Health Tone®.

The rationale in severe COVID19 infection is to undertake PEX to aid reduction of the hyperinflammation and reduce the morbidity and mortality to the lungs, but also systemically, such as the heart, kidneys and brain. A feasibility study of PEX therapy has been undertaken and confirmed a reduction in the inflammatory markers, no VTE/arterial events and normalisation of the renal function and cardiac function throughout the period of therapy. As plasma exchange is an intensive treatment modality, blocks of 5 daily PEX will be undertaken. Further blocks of PEX treatment can be initiated as dictated by the clinical and laboratory parameters. Unlike many therapeutic schedules, there is no immunosuppression associated with PEX; indeed, the resulting decrease in inflammatory markers were shown to be associated with an increase and sustained lymphocytes count.

Aim of the study is to verify the efficacy and safety of convalescent hyperimmune plasma infusion in hospitalized covid-19 patients non in ITU with pneumonia and respiratory symptoms within seven days from the beginning of symptoms. Efficacy is evaluated by the number of patients who will improve their clinical condition and will not be admitted to ITU. .Safety is considered in relation to adverse reactions to plasma infusion.

Different studies showed that acetyl L-Carnitine (LC) positively affects the development and maturation of T lymphocytes, involved in the immune response to viral agents. It also contributes to the inhibition of ROS production and to the remodulation of the cytokine network typical of the systemic inflammatory syndrome. Given the potential protective effects of LC, it is suggested as a supportive and therapeutic option in patients with coronavirus infection. Given this background, in the light of the current COVID-19 emergency, it is the intention of the investigators to conduct a prospective, randomized, open-label, controlled study in the cohort of hospitalized patients with covid-19 pneumonia, administering 2 gr of LC orally in addition to the standard of care therapy (SOC). The investigators hypothesize that the use of LC will be associated with an earlier improvement of clinical and biohumoral parameters after 14 days of LC treatment when compared to the group of patients provided with standard care.
