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.

In the postmenopausal period when the woman spent 1/3 of her life; Due to the lack of estrogen, some physical and psychological changes occur. These changes may cause some problems. For women who perceive menopause as the first step of old age, loss of physical strength, energy, attraction and fertility, menopause can also lead to anxiety. In addition to these, they are among the emotional changes in the menopausal period in symptoms such as hypersensitivity to events, fatigue, and insomnia. Sometimes it can even be seen in psychological disorders such as melancholy and depression. The new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19), which appeared in Wuhan in December 2019, started to appear in different countries soon after. All countries have taken measures to prevent the spread of this virus. To this end, Turkey remains at home on March 21, 2020, and has commissioned social isolation measures. Studies investigating the effects of social isolation show that psychological and physical problems occur in individuals. Studies have shown that yoga and mindfulness programs have an impact on people's anxiety, depression, and the ability to control themselves. The purpose of this study; To investigate the effectiveness of telerehabilitation based yoga and mindfulness programs on psychological resilience, physical awareness and physical activity in postmenopausal women in social isolation due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Using telerehabilitation-based home programs aims to use an innovative model.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the activity of low dose oral selinexor (KPT-330) and to evaluate the clinical recovery, the viral load, length of hospitalization and the rate of morbidity and mortality in participants with severe COVID-19 compared to placebo. The study had 2 arms and evaluated selinexor 20 mg + standard of care (SoC) and placebo + SoC. As the treatment for COVID-19 is rapidly evolving, the SoC varied over time and across regions of the world.

COVID-19's mechanism to enter the cell is initiated by its interaction with its cellular receptor, the angiotensin-converting enzyme. As a result of this union, a clathrin-mediated endocytosis process begins. This route is one of the therapeutic targets for which available drugs are being investigated in order to treat COVID-19 infection. This is one of the mechanisms blocked by drugs like ruxolitinib and chloroquine. Various drugs approved for clinical use that block the clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway have been explored. It has been found that the best in vitro and in vivo results were obtained with statins, which also allowed generating a greater potent adaptive immune response. Therefore, statins and specifically simvastatin make it possible to block the entry process used by COVID-19, block inflammation by various mechanisms and increase the adaptive immune response. All of these processes are desirable in patients infected with COVID-19. Statins have been proposed to have beneficial effects in patients infected with MERS-COV, another coronavirus similar to COVID-19, but there have been no randomized studies supporting the use of statins in patients with COVID-19 infection. In this project we propose the combined use of one of these drugs, ruxolitinib with simvastatin, looking for a synergistic effect in the inhibition of viral entry and in the anti-inflammatory effect.

This current proposal evaluates the Longitudinal Energy Expenditure and Metabolic Effects in Patients with COVID-19 (LEEP-COVID) to understand, guide and optimize our metabolic and nutritional care of these high risk patients. As no data exist for the metabolic effects of COVID-19 patients, this data is urgently needed and essential to assist in the care of COVID-19 patients worldwide. We are uniquely positioned at Duke to perform this research, as we are the only US center with 2 of the FDA-approved devices in existence currently capable of collecting this vital data to guide the care of COVID-19 patients worldwide.

There is currently no treatment available for COVID-19, the acute respiratory illness caused by the novel SAR-CoV-2. Convalescent plasma from patients who have recovered from COVID-19 that contains antibodies to the virus is a potential therapy. On March 25th, 2020, the FDA approved the use of convalescent plasma under the emergency investigational new drug (eIND) category. Randomized trials are needed to determine the efficacy and safety of COVID-19 convalescent plasma for acute COVID-19 infection. The objective of the CONCOR-1 trial is to determine the efficacy of transfusion of COVID-19 convalescent plasma to adult patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19 infection at decreasing the frequency of in-hospital mortality in patients hospitalized for COVID-19. It is hypothesized that treating hospitalized COVID-19 patients with convalescent plasma early in their clinical course will reduce the risk of death, and that other outcomes will be improved including risk of intubation, and length of ICU and hospital stay. This pan-Canadian clinical trial has the potential to improve patient outcomes and reduce the burden on health care resources including reducing the need for ICU beds and ventilators.

Q-PROTECT is a placebo controlled randomized trial (RCT) to ascertain the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine (HC) alone or, in combination with azithromycin (AZ), in reducing viral load in patients with COVID 19.
Hope Biosciences
Hope Biosciences is conducting a research study of an investigational product called autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (abbreviated as HB-adMSCs) to provide immune support against COVID-19. The study purpose is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of five IV infusions of HB-adMSCs in subjects with no signs of COVID-19.

The 2019-20 coronavirus disease, caused by COVID-19, is an ongoing pandemic. The measures in which public health officials quarantine confirmed and isolate symptomatic cases in order to reduce the spread COVID-19 is the common practice used in most countries. However, a significant question remains in regards to the asymptomatically infected individuals, which may propagate the virus and impede infection control. The other question to consider is whether these asymptomatic carriers develop an immune response or continue viral shedding. The purpose of the current study is the evaluate the immune response, i.e developing anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the asymptomatic cases, in a household study design. We plan to evaluate over 1000 patients with positive COVID-19 results and their households.
