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.

DESIGN Longitudinal prospective observational multicentre study. Primary objective: Understand the immune mechanisms driving COVID-19 disease in patients with a history of lung disease
Boston University
Many countries in sub-Saharan Africa are implementing a policy of six-month dispensing of antiretroviral (ARV) medications for HIV. Under the new guidelines, stable patients can receive a six-month supply of ARV medications at once, reducing the number of clinic visits required for medication refills. South Africa is considering this policy but has not yet adopted it and has requested evidence of its feasibility, effectiveness, and costs to the healthcare system and to patients. The decision on whether to implement a six-month dispensing policy has become urgent due to the SARS-Cov-2 epidemic, as clinic visits to refill prescriptions pose COVID-19 transmission risks to both patients and providers. To generate the required evidence, South Africa is implementing a pilot program that will allow for a cluster-randomized evaluation of 6-month dispensing. This protocol is for that evaluation. It aims to provide supporting evidence to inform future policy and procurement decisions by the National Department of Health (NDOH). All interventions will be conducted as part of routine care by Department of Health staff. In the pilot program, the NDOH will randomize 28 clinics in two provinces 1:1 to receive the six month dispensing intervention or continue standard of care, which currently allows for 2-3 month dispensing. The researchers will assess the patient outcomes of six month dispensing, administer a cross-sectional patient questionnaire, conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews with care providers and implementers, and estimate the costs to NDOH and to patients of six month dispensing. A maximum of 150,545 patients will be followed through their medical records and 400 patients and providers will be consented to be interviewed at baseline and after 6 months (total maximum sample size = 150,945).

The primary purpose of this study is to gain an understanding of how experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic, regardless of COVID-19 status, may have impacted multiple domains of health-related quality of life and other areas such as COVID-19 specific psychological distress, and disruptions to health care, finances and social interactions. We will also evaluate the extent to which resiliency factors such as social support, perceived benefits under times of stress, and ability to manage stress may buffer associations between COVID-19 experiences and HRQoL. To meet these objectives, we have developed a 10-minute questionnaire that taps into these areas and is based on prior work addressing concerns of other pandemics or national crises. Participants will have previously consented to protocol PA15-0336 and have provided prior lifestyle data. This will allow us to connect the COVID-19 survey data with prior existing data.

The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of processed human amniotic fluid as a treatment for COVID-19.
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
This study investigates the well-being and health-related quality of life in cancer patients and survivors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using questionnaires may help researchers gain an understanding of how experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic (e.g., exposure, risk factors, testing, isolation, seropositivity, hospitalization, loss of family or friends, loss of income), may impact multiple domains of health-related quality of life (physical, emotional and social well-being), and other areas such as COVID-19-specific psychological distress (e.g., fear, anxiety and depressive symptoms), and disruptions to health care, finances, and social interactions.

This study investigates the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the psychosocial health of employees of MD Anderson Cancer Center. Epidemics have been shown to promote psychological stress among medical staff in high risk areas, which may lead to mental health problems. Assessing how the pandemic is affecting employees may allow for more comprehensive actions to be taken to protect the mental health of employees.

In a cohort study, the investigators aim to compare confirmed COVID-19 patients with non-COVID-19 patients who undergo surgical treatment and study factors associated with good or bad outcomes.

This clinical trial will explore the safety and potential efficacy of CLBS119 for the repair of COVID-19 induced pulmonary damage in adults.
CSL Behring
This is a phase 2, prospective, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) administration of CSL324, administered in combination with SOC treatment, in subjects with COVID 19. For the purposes of this study, standard of care (SOC) may include any written or established treatment protocol followed at the study site for the treatment of severe COVID-19 or its complications, including off-label use of marketed pharmaceutical products and / or products with emergency use authorization granted for the treatment of COVID-19 (ie, not yet marketed) (eg, remdesivir).
