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.

Many patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) have atypical blood clots. These blood clots can occur in either veins or arteries and be large, like in stroke or heart attack, or very tiny, called microthrombi. Some patients with COVID-19 even have blood clots despite being on anti-clotting medications. Blood with increased viscosity does not flow through the body normally, in the same way that syrup, a highly viscous liquid, and water, a minimally viscous liquid, flow differently. The researchers believe that hyperviscosity may contribute to blood clots and organ damage seen in patients with severe COVID-19. Plasma exchange removes a patient's plasma, which contains the large sticky factors that the researchers believe are increasing viscosity, and replaces it with plasma from healthy donors. In addition to providing important information about plasma exchange as a treatment in COVID-19 for patients, this study will provide data to justify resource and staffing decisions. This study will enroll 20 participants who are critically ill from COVID-19. Participants will be randomized to receive therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) or standard of care (SOC).

Prospective, multi-centre, randomized, double-blind trial to assess efficacy and safety of ivermectin for the treatment of initial infection with SARS-CoV2 infection. Study arms: A) placebo B) ivermectin 600 μg/kg daily for 5 consecutive days (I_600) + placebo. C) ivermectin 1200 μg/kg daily at empty stomach with water for 5 consecutive days (I_1200). Patients will be randomized at emergency room of hospitals as well as at outpatient ambulatory care as well as at home, according to routine procedures of recruiting centres. In arm A and B, the number of placebo tablets to be administered will be calculated by the study dedicated pharmacist considering the number of tablets that should be taken in case a patient with the same weight is assigned to arm C.

Study to assess the safety and efficacy of STI-5656 (Abivertinib Maleate) plus SOC versus SOC in subjects hospitalized with COVID-19
Cairo University
- This clinical trial proposal is based on the FDA protocol for emergency use of convalescent plasma for treatment of COVID-19 cases, and on the WHO guidelines for use of convalescent plasma in other infectious diseases. - This Clinical trial is to be applied in Cairo University quarantine hospital. The collection, testing and storage of convalescent plasma will be done inside CUH main blood bank. The concept of this clinical trial is built on the collection of convalescent plasma from individuals who had recovered from documented infection with SARS-CoV-2, to be used for patients with- or at high risk of progression to- severe/life-threatening clinical conditions due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. An informed consent is required to join this clinical trial; patients will be transfused with one or two units of ABO compatible convalescent plasma. Those patients will be followed up and the clinical and laboratory data will be compiled, including adverse events related to the administration of convalescent plasma (CP). Other data to be collected retrospectively will include patient demographics, acute care facility resource utilization (total length of stay, days in ICU, days intubated, and survival till discharge from an acute care facility).

The onset of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the first months of 2020 had a huge impact on Italian population and Healthcare System, with more than 150.000 total confirmed cases1. SARS-CoV-2 is a highly contagious new virus, causing an influenza like illness and respiratory tract infection demonstrating fever (89%), cough (68%), fatigue (38%), sputum production (34%) and/or shortness of breath (19%). The aim of this observational study is to detect symptoms, disabilities, participation and the lived experience of the disease in individuals affected by COVID-19 two months after the hospital discharge.

Patients who are ill with COVID-19 may benefit from receiving convalescent plasma infusions containing antibodies from donors who have recovered from the disease and are proven to no longer be infected. Given the current public health emergency due to COVID-19, the FDA has recently fast-tracked the use of convalescent plasma. The purpose for this study is to assess if convalescent plasma collected from donors previously infected with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19, can provide clinical benefit to those acutely ill with the virus and to evaluate if such treatment is safe. There will be two arms in the interventional study, where subjects will either be treated with convalescent plasma or fresh frozen plasma in a randomized and blinded manner. As an additional comparison, the clinical course of subjects enrolled during the period of the study who do not receive an alternative treatment for COVID-19 will be assessed.

Hospital mortality attributed to SARS-CoV-2 in France increased daily by 28% in the week before confinement. The week following this decision, the daily increase was 30%. During the week of the second week of confinement, it started a decline of 19% estimated over the last 5 days, reaching the cumulative number of 2606 deaths on 29/3 (site https://www.eficiens.com/coronavirus- personal statistics / and calculation). The diagnosis of viral carriage by RT-PCR is reserved for symptomatic cases among caregivers, due to the shortage of available tests and the cumbersome implementation. The carrier diagnosis is the benchmark, on which are implemented the therapeutic strategies and established the national statistics. It can present false negatives, linked to a research too early or too late in relation to the infection, or to a technical defect of the nasal swab sample. Caregivers on the front line in patient care, in hospitals or in the city, have only partial access to this diagnostic test, depending on the existence of symptoms. The implementation of a systematic serological screening, planned by the government and which cannot be based only on the search for the virus, will make it possible to inform the caregivers presenting symptoms or not, of their serological status, and therefore of their degree immunity or, on the contrary, susceptibility to infectious contacts. It should therefore be very voluntarily requested. On the occasion of this screening, the constitution of the COVID-3S cohort will make it possible to verify the degree of contamination in an asymptomatic population, information which is sorely lacking for the estimation of the immune coverage of the population. The implementation of the Covid-3S study will be based on the work of the National Reference Center of Pr B Lina, from the COVID-SER cohort, for the selection of the most efficient test (s). It seems useful to initiate the constitution of this cohort as soon as possible in relation to the evolution of the epidemic. Pending receipt of official recommendations, the lack of knowledge of the performance of serological tests means that it should be applied first to health professionals, better able to appreciate its limits, for the initial period before determining a validated serological screening strategy. Once the strategy has been specified, the gradual expansion of screening to the patient population will provide a more representative basis for the construction of epidemiological models for evaluating strategies.
