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.

The number of cases of COVID-19 is still increasing and transmission of SARS-CoV-2 seems to occur mainly through person-to-person transmission through respiratory droplets, indirect contact with infected people and surfaces. The use of face masks is recommended as a public health measure, but in many settings only domestic cloth made masks are available to the majority of the people. However, masks can be of different quality and very little is known about the utility of cloth face masks at the community level. In Bandim Health Project's Health and Demographic Surveillance System we will evaluate the effect of providing locally produced cloth face masks on severity of COVID-19 like illness and mortality in an urban population. The locally produced cloth mask is made according to a laboratory certified model and will be provided to the intervention group alongside information of how the risk of transmission can be reduced. The control group will receive information alone. Follow-up will be implemented through telephone calls and post-epidemic home visits.
Brain & Spine Institute (ICM)
Patients with neurological or psychiatric symptoms or pre-existing disease will be sampled (blood for serum and DNA or saliva for DNA) at inclusion and at M6 (blood) and M12 (blood) depending on their pathology. Sampling will be done either at hospital if patient is on site for routine care or at home if no consultation is scheduled at hospital.

It's an obsevational retrospective/prospective study. Analyzing the evolution of COVID 19 infection in cancer patients can provide interesting information in the management of these patients. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to implement a registry to describe and monitor cancer patients affected by COVID 19, the factors that are associated with an unfavorable evolution, to develop a strategy for the risk assessment of these patients and recommendations. relating to their treatment. Particular attention will be paid to patients suffering from urological tumors because the treatment followed by the patients would seem to expose them to a greater risk when they are infected with coronavirus, furthermore, from the literature it is clear that there may be a connection between sex hormones and ACE2 levels in the plasma. In fact, the estrons up-regulate the concentration of ACE2 in the circulation and this could be the reason why women would seem more protected than men once they contract the coronavirus infection
Siyan Clinical Corporation
The primary objective of this survey study is to assess the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic on participants with psychiatric disorders to identify areas of needed support and services. Data collected may serve as a foundational research in the prevention, care and treatment of mental health disorders during pandemics such as COVID-19. This survey study will utilize the Epidemic-Pandemic Impacts Inventory (EPII). This is a newly tool designed to assess tangible impacts of epidemics and pandemics across personal and social life domains.

Upper respiratory swabs, such as the nasopharyngeal (NP) swab, have so far been major specimen sources used for the SARS-COV-2 molecular test. However, due to the discomfort and invasiveness of NP collection, and the expense of personal protective equipment, alternative sampling sources such as saliva are desired. The purpose of this proposed study is: 1) to examine whether saliva can be used as an specimen for the SARS-COV-2 molecular test; 2) to test if gingival crevicular fluids is a reliable specimen for the SARS-COV-2 antibodies.

The proposed study is designed to investigate if and how pregnant women infected with Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) infection go on to develop long-term immunity. In December 2019, a group of people in Wuhan, China presented with symptoms of a pneumonia of an unknown cause that led to the discovery of a new coronavirus called COVID-19. COVID-19 has caused a global pandemic with 7,140,000 confirmed cases and 418,000 deaths as of 13th June 2020. In the United Kingdom (UK), there have been 294,000 cases and 41,662 deaths as of 13th June 2020. In humans, this infection primarily involves the upper part of the lungs, but it can also affect other organs. It causes mild symptoms in the majority of people affected but some people can have severe infections, with some even requiring critical care in hospital. During Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), a previous coronavirus epidemic, pregnant women were disproportionately affected with severe illness. Understanding how the immune system responds long-term to this infection may hold the key to developing better vaccines and efficient treatment plans. Specialised immunity develops when individuals are infected by this and other viruses. The investigators of this study propose that, in pregnancy, this specialised immunity may not behave effectively. This may affect their ability to develop long lasting immunity and make them more vulnerable to re-infection. In this study, the investigators aim to recruit patients across 6 groups including COVID-19 newly infected pregnant women, and people with differing illness severity, mild to moderate, severe/critical, no infection (controls), as well as pregnant women with influenza and those receiving influenza vaccine. The study team will compare COVID-19 in pregnancy with non-pregnant infected and with influenza infected and vaccinated pregnant women. The study team will consent patients in all of these groups to provide a series of blood samples at different time points in a 12-month period.

The study will be conducted in the UCKWUM teaching hospital in Warsaw between 2020 and 2022. The study group will be comprised of UCKWUM healthcare professionals All employees willing to participate in the study will receive an anonymous questionnaire on attitudes towards influenza vaccination . We will distribute information posters of the National Programme for Combating Influenza as part of the educational programme. In order to increase the effectiveness of the educational campaign, we will also send information e-mails, using the internal hospital e-mail system and conduct a series of online training courses to present the latest international reports on influenza vaccinations among health care professionals [CITATION Abr10 \l 1045]. Considering the fact that lack of time [CITATION Kus11 \l 1045] is the most common reason for not getting vaccinated against influenza among healthcare professionals, we will provide this group with an opportunity to receive free influenza vaccination during working hours at the UCKWUM hospital. Information about the possibility of vaccination will be provided in the form of e-mails (mailings) to hospital employees (internal hospital e-mail system), letters of information submitted to the offices of individual departments, and information posters. The effectiveness of the educational programme will be assessed by re-administering the anonymous questionnaires after the influenza season, also by means of internal hospital e-mail system.

Passive immunization involves the administration of antibodies against a given agent to a susceptible individual for the purpose of preventing or treating an infectious disease due to that agent. A general principle of passive antibody therapy is that it is more effective when used for prophylaxis than for treatment of disease. When used for therapy, antibody is most effective when administered shortly after the onset of symptoms

This study aims to determine how long COVID-19 neutralizing antibodies can be detected in an elderly institutionalized population presenting fragility factors. This study also aims to stratify seroconversion by immunological profiles of the elderly patients residing in the EHPAD. This stratification requires the measurement of immunological marker levels already described in immunosenescence and also involved in the development of certain chronic infectious diseases more common in the elderly population. This analysis will enable the investigators to describe an immunological, clinical and biological profile representing a patient who has developed an immunity against COVID 19. It will also help the investigators to understand the different mechanisms leading to a reduced immune response after a potential administration of a vaccine. Finally, it will help describe the immune profiles of elderly residents who presented with non-severe forms of COVID-19.
