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.

Since March 2020, SARS-CoV2 virus (nCoV19; COVID-19) is considered pandemic. Its high rate of spread and infection in the human population and the lack of effective and validated treatment have led the authorities of several countries to confine their populations to slow the spread of COVID-19. As part of the management of this health crisis, the screening of individuals is essential in order to isolate "infected cases". These screening tests are currently performed on nasopharyngeal swabs using RT-PCR for the detection of viral RNA. Although sensitive and specific, these tests remain relatively long (2-5 hours), expensive and the strong international demand for nucleic extraction kits and enzymes are factors limiting the implementation of widespread screening (problem of supply of swabs, molecular biology consumables). In order to prevent the risks of a shortage of screening means, we propose to develop an innovative alternative strategy, PCR-free, based on the detection of specific protein signatures in human saliva by MALDI-TOF MS profiling. MALDI-TOF MS profiling is a method used in routine diagnostics by microbiology laboratories for the identification of microorganisms. MALDI-TOF MS profiling has been successfully used to classify individuals according to their infectious status (oral pathologies) based on the analysis of their saliva, but also as a tool for the identification of respiratory viruses from cell culture supernatants. In addition, we have expertise and skills in the field of MALDI-TOF MS profiling and have implemented new strategies to improve the quality of profiles and their analysis, particularly in the context of entomological and vector identification projects. Finally, recent Chinese studies have reported that COVID-19 was detectable in saliva by RT-PCR. The main objective of this study is to develop a test based on the MALDI-TOF profiling method to detect individuals infected with SARS-CoV2 from saliva sample.

The overall objective of this project is to develop an emergent treatment protocol using adoptive T-cell therapy for the treatment of severe COVID-19. The central hypothesis is that SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells from convalescent donors who have recovered from COVID-19 can be manufactured expeditiously and these cells are safe and effective for the treatment of severe SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Novel Coronavirus (2019nCoV) or Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes Coronavirus Disease 2019, or known as Covid-19 has recently become a global health emergency since it was first detected in Wuhan, the People Republic of China in December 2019. Since then, the prevalence has rapidly increased worldwide. In Indonesia, by the end of April 2020, around 10,000 patients have been tested positive for Covid-19 infection, with a case fatality rate of around 8%. The pathogenesis of Covid-19 is still under investigation and to our understanding, ACE2 receptors in the alveoli serve as the binding site of the S-protein of envelope spike virus of SARS-CoV-2. TMPRSS2 enzyme aids the fusion between cell membrane and capsid of the virus, allowing penetration of virus into the cell. Vesicles containing virion fuse with cell membrane and released as new virions. Cytopathic effect of the virus and its ability to overcome immune response determines the degree of infection. Differences in immunological profile among degrees of severity of Covid-19 may vary especially for the number of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8, leukemia-inhibiting factors (LIF), immunological markers such as CXCR3+CD4+, CXCR3+CD8+ T cell and CXCR3+ NK cells, implying the ongoing cytokine storm. The previous studies also found increasing number for infection markers such as procalcitonin, ferritin, and C-reactive protein. The decreasing number of anti-inflammatory cytokines in such as IL-10 also supports this finding. Previous studies have shown immunomodulating and anti-inflammatory capacity of the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MSCs contributed to the shifting of pro-inflammatory Th2 into anti-inflammatory Th2. One of the most recent study on the usage of MSCs on Covid-19 patients showed increased expression of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), which give rise to inhibitory effect of T lymphocyte and natural killer (NK) cell population. Vascular epithelial growth factor (VEGF) is found increasing following MSCs administration, which indicates the ability to improve the disrupted capillaries due to SARS-Cov-2 infection. The ability of MSCs in differentiating to alveolar cells is proven by the presence of SPM and SPC2, surfactant proteins produced by type II alveolar cells. MSCs are unable to be infected by SARS-CoV-2 since they don't have ACE2 receptors and TMPRSS2 enzyme.

On 11th of March 2020, WHO characterized COVID-19 infection as a Pandemic. After the COVID-19 infection is declared as a Pandemic there was an outburst regarding COVID-19 Research. The Research interest led to registration of Interventional and Observational studies world wide. There are constant efforts by Health care workers to seek information regarding the Interventional and Observational studies which can help in decision making regarding effective handling of COVID-19 infected patients. It is also important to track on the happenings in various frontiers of COVID-19 Research in view of historical interest and clinical relevance. This Observational Cross sectional study aims to explore the completed Researches in WHO-compliant registries to understand the trends of COVID-19 Research. This study aims to get a birds eye view of ongoing COVID-19 Research scenario worldwide. This study results can directly benefit the worldwide Academicians and Health Care Professionals to understand the ongoing COVID-19 Research trends.
