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.

Up to date, and since December 31st 2019, 2 520 522 cases of COVID-19 including 176 786 deaths, have been reported worldwide. Global efforts are made to save lives and decrease morbidity by evaluating therapeutic strategies. Pregnant women with COVID-19 are at high-risk of severe complications and mortality from COVID-19 infection, due to physiologic and immune changes occurring during pregnancy. These risks include development of maternal hypoxemic respiratory failure due to severe pneumonia, hospitalization in intensive care, death; but also, fetal morbidity-mortality with chronic and/or acute fetal distress, intrauterine growth retardation, intrauterine death and neonatal morbidity, mainly due to induced preterm birth and maternal-fetal transmission. Knowledge of these epidemiologic facts on SARS-Cov-2 infection in pregnant women is currently limited to small case-series. No drug has demonstrated solid evidence in treating SARS-Cov-2 virus. Nevertheless, in vitro studies and tests in COVID-19 positive patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin merit further evaluation. Pregnant women are systematically excluded from drug trials, and treatment options for this high-risk population remain untested. The aim of this study is to screen pregnant women presenting minor symptoms, for COVID-19 and to evaluate efficacy of hydroxychloroquine-azithromycin treatment in preventing aggravation of symptoms with development of hypoxemic respiratory failure and complications of pregnancy.
University Hospital Tuebingen
In this study (i) the host genome to identify susceptibility regions of infection, inflammation, and host defense, (ii) host response to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Corona-Virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, and (iii) viral sequence composition to define viral sequences which may be correlated with disease severity in addition to the metagenome of the throat swab will be analysed .

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effects of Lactobacillus coryniformis K8 consumption on the incidence and severity of Covid-19 in health workers exposed to the virus. This is a preventive study

The purpose of this proof of concept study is to provide COVID-19 convalescent plasma to patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 and assess: - the titer of anti-COVID-19 antibodies in the donors and in the patients before and after treatment; - the in-depth analysis of immunological parameters in the donors and in recipient before and after treatment; - the impact of plasma transfusion on the reduction of viral load and inflammation - safety and tolerability - clinical efficacy
Xinqiao Hospital of Chongqing
Investigators use clinical data from a large sample of COVID-19 disease patients to screen out biomarkers associated with disease severity. Then, a novel nomogram model will be established to predict covid-19 disease severity, which could provide important assistance and supplement for clinical work. In the case of extremely shortage of front-line medical resources, patients with potential severe diseases will be timely treated with the help of the novel nomogram model.
Centre Francois Baclesse
This original study will assess the impact of the coronavirus health crisis on the management of patients undergoing medical treatment for cancer, in particularly on the modification of the hospital organization. It will also provide a record of the progress of patients who will have been treated during the epidemic period and infected by the virus. We will also assess the psychological impact of the pandemic in patients but also in caregivers

This expanded access program will provide access to COVID-19 convalescent plasma 150 or more individuals with moderate to severe or life-threatening manifestations of COVID-19, or documented to be at high risk of developing such manifestations at participating hospitals in Colorado.COVID-19 convalescent plasma is the liquid part of blood that is collected from patients who have recovered from COVID-19. Convalescent plasma collected from individuals who have recovered from COVID-19 contains antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. Preliminary evidence and data collected during other respiratory virus outbreaks (including the 2003 SARS-CoV-1 epidemic, the 2009-2010 H1N1 influenza virus pandemic, and the 2012 MERS-CoV epidemic) suggest that the antibodies in convalescent plasma may be effective in fighting the infection.

Since December 2019, a new agent, the coronavirus SARS-Cov-2, has spread from China to the rest of the world causing an international epidemic of respiratory diseases called COVID-19. Oise was one of the first clusters in France, with more than 4,000 confirmed cases. A significant proportion (80%) of patients with COVID-19 are ambulatory. However, few data are available for this particular population in France. Thus, few clear recommendations are available. We propose to conduct a large cohort of observation of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients on an ambulatory basis in the Oise region. This observatory will make it possible to describe the epidemiological characteristics and initial management of COVID-19 patients and to identify early severity factors.

The global pandemic of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, and has since spread worldwide.1 As of April 14, 2020, there have been more than 1.5 million reported cases and 124 000 deaths in more than 200 countries. A recent open-label nonrandomized French study reporte that addition of azithromycin to hydroxychloroquine in 6 patients resulted in numerically superior viral clearance (6/6, 100%) compared with hydroxychloroquine monotherapy (8/14, 57%) or control (2/16, 12.5%). Azithromycin alone has never been tested, whereas azithromycin has immunomodulating and anti-inflammatory properties that could theoretically prevent or limit secondary worsening. Our hypothesis is that azithromycin combined with amoxicillin/clavulanate will be superior to amoxicillin/clavulanate alone to obtain viral clearance at Day 6 in COVID-19 patients with pneumonia and hospitalized in a non-intensive care unit ward.
