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.

Patients with chronic rheumatic diseases (such as systemic lupus erythematosus [SLE], rheumatoid arthritis [RA], ankylosing spondylitis [AS], juvenile idiopathic arthritis [JIA], poly/dermatomyositis [PM/DM], systemic sclerosis [SSc], systemic vasculitis, and primary Sjögren's syndrome [pSS]) are particularly susceptible to infectious diseases due to autoimmune disorder itself and its treatment (immunosuppressive therapies). Similarly, people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) are predisposed to infections by different agents. The current 2019 Coronavirus Disease Pandemic-19 (COVID-19), caused by the SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) began in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, and quickly became a global health and economic emergency by taking to an unprecedented burden on health systems around the world. However, SARS-Cov-2 infection raised particular concern in patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (DRAI) since, due to chronic inflammatory immune dysregulation and the regular use of immunosuppressive drugs, these patients are considered to be at high risk of contracting SARS-CoV-2 and potentially evolving to a worse prognosis. The overlap between the COVID-19 pandemic and the HIV/AIDS pandemic also poses an additional challenge, as the impact of co-infection is not yet fully known. The response to vaccines for other agents, however, has already been described as compromised in PLWHA. Vaccination is the most effective preventive measure to control the spread of coronavirus and to reduce associated complications. Usually, live or attenuated vaccines are not recommended for patients with chronic rheumatic diseases using immunosuppressants. However, immunization with inactivated agents is strongly indicated, resulting, in general, in good immunogenicity and adequate vaccine safety, as well as without relevant deleterious effects on diseases. Vaccine efficacy studies are needed to verify the immunogenicity of the vaccine against COVID-19 in immunosuppressed patients with rheumatological disease and those with HIV-related disease considering the risk of greater severity. In addition, it is important to assess the safety of the vaccine in this population as well as the possibility of reactivating the rheumatological disease itself. The present study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the CoronaVac (Coronavirus vaccine, Sinovac Biotech Ltd.) in patients with rheumatic diseases and PLWHA

There is no effective treatment method for COVID-19 yet. With vaccination being the most effective approach to control the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccines have been developed with many different methods. One of the vaccines developed, the China-based CoronaVac vaccine (inactivated + aluminum adjuvant vaccine) is a vaccine developed with the inactive method, which is the classical vaccine production method. As a result of Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 trials, emergency use approval has been given for the CoronaVac vaccine by Turkish Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency. The clinical picture of COVID-19 can be heterogeneous, ranging from asymptomatic to severe disease, which can be associated with a cytokine storm. In the clinical results of COVID-19, it has been observed that the severity of the disease is lower in women than in men, and the mortality rates are lower in women than in men. A few studies have shown the physiological roles of some vitamins and trace elements in COVID-19. Investigation of free radical levels known to be effective in the development of cardiovascular disease due to oxidative stress is important in determining the risk of cardiovascular complications in the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the social isolation rules and quarantine measures applied in the COVID-19 pandemic have caused individuals to be negatively affected physically and psychologically and their quality of life to decrease. Investigating the changes in oxidative stress parameters, trace element and quality of life levels of vaccination in COVID-19 may provide useful information in determining the effects of COVID-19 vaccine. It is planned to include female individuals to be vaccinated in Izmir Bakırcay University Cigli Training and Research Hospital. Within the scope of the study, it was planned to determine the oxidative stress parameters, trace element levels and quality of life levels of the individuals and to compare the values of the data obtained before and after vaccination. After analyzing the data obtained from the research with appropriate statistical methods, the data will be evaluated.

With the rapid spread of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) disease all over the world and the announcement of a pandemic, research on many different drug approaches has begun and these researches continue today. Although measures such as social distance, quarantine and isolation are effective in reducing the spread of SARS-CoV-2 in the short term during the pandemic, there is no effective treatment method yet. It is known that especially healthcare workers, the elderly and individuals with underlying health problems are at high risk. However, gender differences in COVID-19 clinical outcomes are thought to exist, and there is growing evidence that the disease is more severe in men than in women and mortality rates are higher.With the global consensus that the most effective approach to control the COVID-19 pandemic is a vaccination that is effective in COVID-19, vaccines have been developed with many different methods. CoronaVac vaccine (inactivated + aluminum adjuvant vaccine) is a vaccine developed with the inactive method, which is the classic vaccine production method. After the completion of Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials of the vaccine, Phase 3 trials were initiated to investigate the effectiveness of the vaccine in 4 different countries, including Turkey. Emergency use approval has been given for the CoronaVac vaccine by Turkish Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency. Researching the effects of vaccination on oxidative stress parameters, trace element and quality of life levels in COVID-19 may provide useful information in determining the effects of COVID-19 vaccine. It is thought that the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of some vitamins and trace elements may be associated with positive results in COVID-19 patients, and the physiological roles of these vitamins and trace elements in COVID-19 have been demonstrated by studies. It is important to investigate the levels of free radicals known to be effective in the development of cardiovascular disease due to oxidative stress, which can provide information on determining the risk of cardiovascular complications in the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the quality of life of individuals decreases in the COVID-19 pandemic.This study is planned to be carried out by including male individuals to be vaccinated in İzmir Bakırçay University Çiğli Training and Research Hospital. Determination of oxidative stress parameters, trace element levels and quality of life levels before and after vaccination applications to be applied to individuals within the scope of the study; It was planned to compare these data before and after vaccination. After analyzing the data obtained from the research with appropriate statistical methods, the data will be evaluated.

Severe Covid-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) infections generate major but inappropriate production of cytokines and, in some cases, generate anti-IFN (Interferon) auto-antibodies, inducing acute respiratory distress syndrom (ARDS). Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) have been reported to be efficient for improving the hyperinflammatory condition state and the respiratory function, which has been described in case reports or small series. The study aims to remove cytokines during cytokine storm and anti-IFN auto-antibodies (when present) to prevent developpement of an inappropriate immune response and to improve the clinical response to reanimation treatment, in particular the respiratory parameters leading to a rapid improvement of clinical status. To that aim, the study investigates to compare a treatment using TPE plus usual treatments in intensive care unit (experimental arm) versus usual treatments in intensive care unit (routine arm) in a randomised trial.
