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 impact of the current Covid-19 pandemic on healthcare workers is enormous. This longitudinal study investigates the prevalence of mental health problems and the quality of life of healthcare workers during and after the Covid-19 pandemic. Underlying risk factors are also examined. Health care workers of the different Covid-19 cohort and transit wards, as well as the intensive care unit and (psychiatric) emergency services of the Ghent university hospital will be included, as well as the health care workers of 6 non-Covid-19 wards.
University of Parma
The present study investigates the efficacy of a brief and cost-effective video-intervention that combines bottom-up elements of deep breathing and third-wave cognitive behavioral therapy techniques (i.e., mindfulness and compassion) on coping strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V., Belgium
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical response of sirukumab (administered as a single intravenous dose) plus standard of care (SOC) compared to placebo plus SOC in COVID-19.
NPO Petrovax
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of Polyoxidonium®, lyophilizate for solution for injections and topical application, 6 mg over placebo in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). This is a multicentre prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group phase IIb\IIIa clinical trial.
University Hospital, Grenoble
The main objective of the COVIDADOMEVA study is to identify the risk factors aggravating the COVID-19 (risk or protective factors), in out-patients suspected of being infected with precocious home monitoring. The primary event defining the aggravation will be then: hospitalization (medicine, resuscitation) or death. The studied potential risk factors will be mainly: - Socio-demographic: age, sex, place of residence or income - Comorbidities - Clinical signs: asthenia, dyspnea (kinetics)… - Drugs other than those related to the infection For this research project, this study needs to use the patient's data of the COVIDADOM cohort (patients suspected of being infected with SARS-CoV-2 with home monitoring) and will collect some supplementary data (clinical and biological). All these data will be integrated and analyzed in the PREDIMED clinical data lake platform (The implementation of PREDIMED has been approved by the French authority in terms of GDPR, CNIL, on October 10, 2019).
Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust
This study will perform prospective repeated serological antibody testing on a cohort of at least 1000 healthcare workers at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Within this cohort, a subset of 150-250 staff members with confirmed (PCR positive) SARS-CoV-2 disease will be followed with intensive monthly testing for 6 months to determine whether antibody levels in the blood are maintained or decrease during this time. All 1000 recruited healthcare workers will be followed 6-monthly
Columbia University
In this study, the investigators propose to administer clazakizumab to patients with life-threatening Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection manifest by pulmonary failure and a clinical picture consistent with a cytokine storm syndrome. This is a single-center randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which 30 patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to two study arms and receive clazakizumab at a dose of 25 mg or placebo.
Federal State Budgetary Institution, Pulmonology Scientific Research Institute
This single-center, prospective, open-label, comparator study, blind for central accessor evaluates the efficacy, safety of inhalations of low-doses of melphalan in patients with pneumonia with confirmed or suspected COVID-19. All patients will receive 0,1 mg of melphalan in 7-10 daily inhalations 1 time per day.
Immunitor Inc.
Safety and immunogenicity one-month study in healthy individuals administered once-daily pill of therapeutic vaccine made from heat-inactivated plasma from donors with COVID-19. Healthy, at least 20, volunteers will be monitored for signs of adverse events. Their PBMC will be collected at baseline and one month later to analyze which type of immune response vaccine has induced.

COVID-19 DISEASE Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory tract infection caused by a newly emergent coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome from COVID-19, that was first recognized in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. While most people with COVID-19 develop mild or uncomplicated illness, approximately 14% develop severe disease requiring hospitalization and oxygen support and 5% require admission to an intensive care unit. In severe cases, COVID-19 can be complicated by acute respiratory disease syndrome (ARDS) requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation, sepsis and septic shock, multiorgan failure, including acute kidney, liver and cardiac injury. ARDS REHABILITATION Critically ill people who undergo prolonged mechanical ventilation often develop weakness, with severe symmetrical weakness of and deconditioning of the proximal musculature and of the respiratory muscles (critical illness neuropathy/myopathy).These individuals also develop significant functional impairment and reduced health-related quality of life (HRQL) up to 2 and 5 years after discharge. ARDS survivors may complain of depression, anxiety, memory disturbances, and difficulty with concentration often unchanged at 2 and 5 years. Less than half of all ARDS survivors return to work within the first year following discharge, two-thirds at two years, and more than 70% at five years. Early physiotherapy (PT) of people with ARDS has recently been suggested as a complementary therapeutic tool to improve early and late outcomes. The aims of PT programs should be to reduce complications of immobilization and ventilator-dependency, to improve residual function, to prevent new hospitalisations, and to improve health status and HRQL. Physiotherapy in critical patients is claimed also to prevent and contribute to treat respiratory complications such as secretion retention, atelectasis, and pneumonia. Early mobilization and maintenance of muscle strength may reduce the risk of difficult weaning, limited mobility, and ventilator dependency. Lastly, pulmonary rehabilitation in ICU in mechanically ventilated subjects may reduce length of stay in ICU up to 4.5 day, shorten mechanical ventilation of 2.3 days and weaning by 1.7 days. The aim of this study is to investigate how early pulmonary and motor rehabilitation impacts on length of hospital admission (ICU and acute ward) and early and late outcomes inpatients that develop ARDS due to COVID-19.
