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.

To evaluate and compare nebulized platelet lysate to placebo control of saline administered via handheld nebulizer 1x daily for eight weeks to determine effect on lung function in patients with post-COVID-19 ARDS syndrome.
Rhode Island Hospital
It is our hypothesis that a course of Ta1 administered to hospitalized individuals with COVID-19 infection and lymphocytopenia will improve the time to recovery (primary objective) and severity of infection (secondary objectives) compared to untreated individuals in the same hospital with comparable lymphocytopenia. After screening, hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and lymphocytopenia who meet the inclusion criteria will receive Ta1 (1.6 mg) administered subcutaneously (SC) daily for 1 week. Individuals in the control arm will be followed on the identical protocol but will not receive daily Ta1.

There is a pandemic in the world by COVID-19. Currently, the pharmacological curative or prophylactic treatments for this infection are not known. Recent studies have suggested that Hydroxy-Chloroquine could be effective in vitro and in vivo against COVID-19. The main objective of this study is to assess in patients with autoimmune disease treated with long course Hydroxy-Chloroquine initiated before the pandemic COVID-19 had an independent protective effect on the risk or the severity of infection with COVID-19.
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
This phase I trial investigates breathing techniques and meditation for health care workers during COVID-19 pandemic. Breathing techniques and medication may help manage stress and improve lung health. The goal of this trial is to learn if breathing techniques and meditation may help to reduce stress and improve lung health in health care workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The aim of the study is to investigate the potential effects of face-to-face supervised tele-rehabilitation to home exercise program on walking speed, handgrip strength, muscle endurance, quality of life, physical activity level and perceived respiratory disability in COVID-19 patients who hospitalized in ICU due to ARDS and discharged from hospital.
Medical University of South Carolina
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how useful vitamin D supplementation is in reducing the severity of COVID-19 symptoms and the body's inflammatory and infection-fighting response to COVID-19. Individuals ≥50 years of age and older who are tested for COVID-19 and negative will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to either daily high dose vitamin D supplementation (6000 IU vitamin D3/day) vs. standard of care. Those individuals ≥50 years of age or older who test positive for COVID-19 at baseline will be randomized to bolus vitamin D (20,000 IU/day for 3 days) followed by high dose (6000 IU vitamin D/day) vs. standard of care for 12 months. All participants will receive a multivitamin containing vitamin D.

Postpartum depression (PPD) represent around 15% of birth in developed countries. The context of the COVID-19 epidemy represents a possible source of additional emotional distress. The objective of this study is to determine the screening prevalence and risk factors of postpartum depression, among women who deliver in fourth hospital in the North of France in the context of the COVID epidemy.
Confederation of Latin American Societies of Anaesthesiology (CLASA)
The objectives of this study are to analyze the best device for intubation in patients infected by SARS-CoV2 virus during COVID-19 pandemics and to review the optimal methods for airway management in such patients for elective surgery and in the Critical Care environment. Also, the safest methods for airway management in thoracic surgery will be analyzed. This study has a descriptive design with no hypothesis contrast, and it will explore the current picture in airway management in Spain. It is a multicentric international study, for all the centers where intubations of tracheostomies have been performed in patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV2 with positive PCR, either in the Critical Care setting or the operating room. A survey will be distributed among professionals who have been involved in airway management in COVID-19 patients in the following specialties: Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Prehospital Medicine, Cardiology and Pulmonology. The study started on april 2020 after receiving approval from the Ethics Committee (General University Hospital of Valencia) COVID-19 infection causes respiratory failure needing ventilatory support, which required endotracheal intubation or tracheostomy. This situation poses a significant risk of transmission due to its usual urgent nature, and it often happens in the context of respiratory claudication. For this reason, studying the safest and useful methods for airway management in this kind of patients, using data based on the clinical experience, may be of great interest in the future. Statistical analysis will be performed using Statistical Software R, . Technical characteristics will be described using frequencies and percentages for categorical variables, and means and standard deviations or medians and interquartile ranges for continuous variables, depending on normality tests. Base characteristics, center and years of experience will be compared. A sample size calculation is not necessary, since it is an explorative and voluntary study, trying to establish which are the regular routines in airway management in COVID-19 patients in Spain and Latin America.

Hospital staff, on the front line in the COVID-19 crisis, have many questions about the risk that they have been infected with this potentially fatal virus. These questions of course primarily concern caregivers working in sectors dedicated to COVID-19 patients, whether they are resuscitating or not, but also those in non-COVID-19 sectors, or even staff without direct contact with patients. In addition, depending on the suddenness and intensity of this "COVID-19 wave", these personnel have been more or less trained and sometimes exposed due to the dire lack of protective equipment. In some countries such as Great Britain, this has resulted in significant absenteeism, a source of deepening the shortage of caregivers. This proportion of contaminated caregivers has not been evaluated on the whole of French territory. Studies from other countries suggest figures ranging from 1.5% in China to 20% in Italy. It is therefore impossible to rely on such variable data to have a reliable estimate. Since june 2020, all staff in French health establishments could benefit a serological test. Thus, in this epidemiological study, we propose to rely on this institutional serological screening to describe the link between seroconversion of hospital staff, regional intensity of the epidemic, and sectors of activity (COVID-19 sectors, non-COVID-19 caregivers , non-COVID-19 non-caregivers.
