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.

Recently, a new clinical presentation called "long covid" has been reported, for patients with symptoms lasting for more than 4 weeks from the onset of the disease. Typically, the symptoms comprise dyspnea, cough, headache, arthralgia, fever, abdominal pain, asthenia and skin manifestations This project aims to evaluate the efficacy of Montelukast in improving the quality of life associated with respiratory symptoms in patients with persistent COVID-19 symptoms. The main objective is to compare the efficacy of low-dose Montelukast versus placebo to improve respiratory symptoms in patients with persistent COVID-19 symptoms.

For the last years, studies have described the " Post-intensive care Syndrome " (PICS), which consists in alteration of quality of life, cognition, autonomy and psychological disorders within the months after intensive-care. Patients with COVID-19 in intensive care units are at high risks to develop PICS. The primary objective is to analyse the incidence of the post-traumatic stress disorder at 12 months after intensive-care for a COVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).

The physical inactivity promoted by the patient's hospitalization, including those infected with the coronavirus, can lead to an important health impairment, including atrophy and loss of muscle function. Thus, a prospective study will be conducted to assess the effect of a home-based exercise training program on health outcomes and quality of life in COVID-19 survivors.

The Multi-arm trial of Inflammatory Signal Inhibitors for COVID-19 (MATIS) study is a two-stage, open-label, randomised controlled trial assessing the efficacy of ruxolitinib (RUX) and fostamatinib (FOS) individually, compared to standard of care in the treatment of COVID-19 pneumonia. The primary outcome is the proportion of hospitalised patients progressing from mild or moderate to severe COVID-19 pneumonia. Patients are treated for 14 days and will receive follow-up assessment at 7, 14 and 28 days after the first study dose. Patients with mild or moderate COVID-19 pneumonia will be recruited. Initially, n=171 (57 per arm) patients will be recruited in Stage 1. Following interim analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of the treatments, approximately n=285 (95 per arm) will be recruited during Stage 2.

The health crisis imposed by COVID-19 is forcing major worldwide social reorganization that will have profound consequences on our society. Currently, one-third of the world's population (~3 billion individuals) is living under some kind of isolation or quarantine measures, causing an unprecedented and rapidly evolving psychosocial crisis. The psychosocial consequences of this health crisis will persist long after restriction measures are lifted and the pandemic is over. This impact will be significant for individuals facing unique contexts or challenges (e.g., older adults, individuals living with a disability, underprivileged families) and will most likely exacerbate existing social and gender inequalities in health and human development. There is an urgent need for information on the evolution of the psychosocial dimensions of health and coping strategies used by our population and our health and social services structures. Thus, this study is designed to accelerate the availability of high-quality, real-time evidence within health and social services structures to address, support and minimize psychosocial consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Through constantly evolving research questions responsive to the course of the pandemic evolution, the rapid system transformations and adaptation of services, and knowledge users (KUs) needs, MAVIPAN aims to address, document, monitor, and evaluate the following: 1. Individuals and families' adjustments and mitigation strategies, especially for those considered vulnerable and in high-risk contexts. 2. Healthcare and social services workers and managers' adjustments and mitigation strategies. 3. The organization of service structures. 4. The social and economic response. To achieve these objectives, we use a mixed methods study design that combines quantitative questionnaires and qualitative interviews to deepen our understanding of elements such as the coping strategies used during the pandemic. A first measure was taken during lock-down as well as a follow-up at 3 months. Another follow-up will be made at 7 months. At least one per year follow-up will be made over the course of the study (5 years). Additional measures may be taken depending on the evolution of the pandemic and the sanitary measures put in place by the authorities.

The COVID-19 can cause important sequels in the respiratory system by bilateral pneumonia and frequently presents loss of strength, dyspnea, polyneuropathies and multi-organic affectation. Long COVID-19 has been defined as the condition occurring in individuals with a history of probable or confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, with related symptoms lasting at least 2 months and not explainable by an alternative diagnosis. The practice of digital physiotherapy presents itself as a promising complementary treatment method to standard physiotherapy, playing a key role in the recovery of function in subjects who have passed the disease and who maintain some symptomatology over time. The aims of this research are to explore the effect of a digital physiotherapy intervention on functional recovery in patients diagnosed with Long COVID-19 and to identify the level of adherence to the treatment carried out. Physiotherapy interventions acquires a fundamental role in the recovery of the functions and the quality of life. As secondary objectives, the aim is to identify the satisfaction and perception of patients with the intervention and the presence of barriers to its implementation (throught a qualitative research), as well as to evaluate the cost-effectiveness from the perspective of the health system. A quasi-experimental pre-post study assessed initially and at the end of the 4-week intervention the functional capacity (1-min STS and SPPB) and the adherence (software). The hypothesis of this research is that the implementation of a TR program presents positive results. If hypothesis is confirmed, that would be an opportunity to define new policies and interventions to address this disease and its consequences.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been characterized by high morbidity and mortality, especially in certain subgroups of patients. To date, no treatment has been shown to be effective in patients with early-onset disease and mild symptoms. Experimental studies have demonstrated a potential anti-inflammatory role of Fluvoxamine, Fluoxetine, Budesonide and Spirulin Platensis in SARS-CoV-2 infections and observational studies have suggested a reduced complications in patients with COVID-19 disease.
