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.

This is a dose-finding safety trial followed by a randomized pilot trial comparing administration of SARS-CoV2-specific T cells (SARS-CoVSTs) to standard of care treatment in hospitalized patients with COVID19 who are at high risk of requiring mechanical ventilation. The SARS-CoVSTs lines have been made at Baylor College of Medicine from healthy donors who have made a full recovery from COVID19. These cell lines were frozen for later use and will be thawed and used to treat patients who meet the eligibility criteria.

Resveratrol is a plant polyphenol (that is sold commercially as a supplement) that might help fight coronavirus as well as help protect the body from the effects of disease (COVID-19) caused by the infection. In this proof-of-concept pilot study we will compare the effects of resveratrol to placebo to assess the safety of the resveratrol and explore effectiveness.

The investigators hypothesize that use of convalescent plasma donated from individuals recovered from Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) will help expedite recovery of individuals with active, severe COVID-19 infection.
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
The primary objective of this early Phase 1/2 study is to identify the V591 dose that achieves the target immune response in humans based on preclinical or early clinical data.

This study is a prospective randomized controlled, double blind clinical trial performed on laboratory confirmed COVID-19 infection admitted patients in the Shamir Medical Center. The trial will include 30 patients who will undergo either hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) or Normobaric oxygen therapy (NBOT), randomized on a 2:1 ratio, within 4 days in addition to the standard treatment including oxygen, drugs, steroids, bronchodilators, antibiotics and others. The evaluation procedure includes symptom monitoring, room air saturation, vital signs monitoring, pulmonary function and blood tests at baseline, one day and one week after the last session. In addition, one hour prior to and post session saturation and vitals will be monitored.

The plan is to transfuse COVID-19 infected patients with convalescent plasma and observe whether this will result in a significant improvement in clinical outcome in comparison to historical experience.
Capricor Inc.
This expanded access protocol will enroll subjects with a clinical diagnosis of COVID-19 confirmed by laboratory testing and who are in critical condition as indicated by life support measurements. Eligible subjects will receive open-label intravenous administration of investigational product (CAP-1002) containing 150 million allogeneic Cardiosphere-Derived Cells (CDCs). CAP-1002 administration will be conducted at the investigative site on Day 1 and weekly up to a maximum of 4 doses, based on clinical course. Subjects will complete protocol assessments at Screening; Day 1; Weeks 1-3; and Follow-up by phone 30 and 90 days after the last infusion. Baseline assessments will be conducted prior to first infusion on Day 1. The patient will be observed during the lengths of hospitalization and monitored for outcome and safety. Safety and outcome data will be collected and reported at the conclusion of treatment and follow-up.
Arcturus Therapeutics, Inc.
This is an open-label study enrolling healthy adults that participated in Study ARCT-021-01 (the Parent Study). Participants will receive either a single injection of ARCT-021 or no injection and be followed for up to 365 days.

This is an observational case-control study to evaluate COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against hospitalisation with COVID-19 related conditions in St. Petersburg, Russia. Two sets of cases and control will be retrospectively analyzed to compare vaccination proportions and other characteristics to infer vaccine effectiveness from odds ratios. The first set of cases will be extracted from the data on hospitalisation of patients with COVID-19 to First Pavlov State Medical University of Saint-Petersburg hospitals, and controls will be patients hospitalised with other conditions. The second set of cases and controls will be based on patients referred to Medical Institute named after Berezin Sergey for computed tomography. Cases will be patients with positive SARS-CoV-2 status computed tomography confirmed pneumonia or patients referred to hospitalisation, and control will be patients without pneumonia and not referred to hospitalisation.

This study is a 12-month, four-arm parallel-group randomized control trial of Pfizer-BioNTech versus MODERNA COVID-19 (Corona Virus disease 2019)vaccine boosters in chronic kidney disease and dialysis patients with poor humoral response following COVID-19 vaccination, in collaboration with 5 dialysis centers in Ontario and British Columbia, Canada . Patients will be randomized to MODERNA or Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, they may have received either MODERNA or Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for their initial two doses of vaccine, and will be stratified by their initial vaccine type (MODERNA or Pfizer-BioNTech ) prior to randomization, which will result in four study groups.
