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.

The COVID epidemic has shown very high mortality among older people, especially among poly-morbid and dependent subjects. In addition to the classic risk factors of age, dependence and associated co-morbidities, community life exposes to specific increased risks in the event of this easily inter human transmissible viral epidemic. In France, according to the Direction of research, studies, evaluation and statistics (DREES) data (Ehpa study, 2015) more than 600,000 elderly people currently live in nursing homes (NH). Since March 28, a national guidance for monitoring the COVID epidemic in NH has just been set up. In France, 14 178 of the 29 319 COVID deaths (48.35%) by June 10th 2020 occurred among NHs residents. Work to consolidate these data is underway, suggesting a much heavier balance sheet. Faced to this threat, in addition to practical recommendations (barrier protection gestures), strict instructions were also announced to all NH to keep their residents safe from COVID : restricting all visitors, all volunteers and nonessential personnel, and more recently, confining residents in their room in case of incident case of COVID in the NH. Organizational factors of NH such as the prevention strategies deployed before and during the epidemic (pneumococcal vaccination, restricting group activities), as well as NH internal resources (equipment, nursing staff) and health resources in the NH environment (hospital partnerships, support devices, telemedicine) lead to heterogeneous situations and could influence the death rates of residents. On the other hand, social isolation can also precipitate the decline of fragile residents. Beyond the immediate and directly risks linked to COVID-19, the present hypothesize that the organizational measures (guidance and recommendations) put in place can have, during and at a distance from the outbreak, beneficial effects but also deleterious effects depending on the severity of the outbreak of a geographic area. More precisely, the hypothesis is that strong and well-followed recommendations at the time of the epidemic were associated with a reduction in the risk of total death in particular of deaths related to COVID in the zones most affected by the epidemic but also that strong and well-followed recommendations were associated with an increased risk of total death, in particular of deaths unrelated to COVID in the areas least affected by the epidemic.
Oslo University Hospital
Purpose: to develop an international validated patient-reported outcome measure for COVID-19 patients according to international guidelines. In this phase III of the project, the preliminary questionnaire of 80 items will be tested. It has been developed based on literature review and interviews with health care professionals and patients (phase I-II). In Phase III A patients will fill in the questionnaire followed by interviews on relevance, importance and wording of the questionnaire In Phase III B patients will fill in the questionnaire and an debriefing questionnaire. We will do explorative psychometric analyses.

COVID-19-infection has a large impact on the respiratory system and possibly on the diaphragm, the main respiratory muscle. In ICU-patients, diaphragm weakness is associated with prolonged ICU-stay, difficult weaning and increased mortality. Our research group recently found evidence for fibrosis and expression of genes involved in fibrosis as well as viral infiltration of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in diaphragm biopsies from COVID-19 ICU patients. This finding suggests a unique manifestation of diaphragm injury in COVID-19 patients after mechanical ventilation. However, it remains unclear what the exact nature and location of diaphragm injury is. Additionally, it is largely unknown whether this injury affects the movement of the diaphragm, but this might have important clinical implications. Therefore, we aim at visualizing the tissue characteristics and movement of the diaphragm in COVID-19 patients who recently received long-term mechanical ventilation, other ICU patients and healthy controls, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI of the diaphragm was already shown feasible in previous research from our group (article currently under review). New insights in the characteristics of diaphragm weakness and injury in COVID-19 patients and control ICU-patients will contribute to strategies to prevent it and monitor the diaphragm of patients under mechanical ventilation, which can contribute to better patient outcomes.

Few trials have reported the safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines. However, these trials were mostly focused on post-vaccination adverse events and short-term antibody detection with none monitoring the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in blood at long-term follow-up after the vaccination. This study aims to evaluate the immune response in post-vaccinated individuals across a follow-up period of one year.
