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.

Recent reports have highlighted Covid-19 related increase in levels of depression and stress related disorders in the health care professionals. Pranayama (ancient yogic breathing techniques) helps harmonizing breathing by regular voluntary control of breath. Yoga has been shown to modulate autonomic nervous functions of the brain. Sudarshan kriya Yoga (SKY) is a unique form of pranayama taught by ''Art of Living UK'' a non-profit organization -for over two decades. SKY involves simple rhythmic breathing technique (easy to practice) that aims at harmonizing body, mind and emotions. Sudarshan kriya yoga (SKY) has been shown to be beneficial in reducing levels of stress, anxiety and depression. This breathing based meditation technique has previously been shown to be beneficial in post-traumatic stress disorder. In this pilot study the aim is to assess the feasibility and effect of SKY in NHS health care workers with possible Covid-19 related stress and anxiety disorder.

COVID 19: Is SARS-CoV-2 Contaminating Surgical Aerosols From Laparoscopy and Open Abdominal Surgery?
This study aims at answering the question if aerosols from laparoscopic or open abdominal surgery contain SARS-CoV-2 virus and need to be considered contagious.

Many countries in sub-Saharan Africa are implementing a policy of six-month dispensing of antiretroviral (ARV) medications for HIV. Under the new guidelines, stable patients can receive a six-month supply of ARV medications at once, reducing the number of clinic visits required for medication refills. South Africa is considering this policy but has not yet adopted it and has requested evidence of its feasibility, effectiveness, and costs to the healthcare system and to patients. The decision on whether to implement a six-month dispensing policy has become urgent due to the SARS-Cov-2 epidemic, as clinic visits to refill prescriptions pose COVID-19 transmission risks to both patients and providers. To generate the required evidence, South Africa is implementing a pilot program that will allow for a cluster-randomized evaluation of 6-month dispensing. This protocol is for that evaluation. It aims to provide supporting evidence to inform future policy and procurement decisions by the National Department of Health (NDOH). All interventions will be conducted as part of routine care by Department of Health staff. In the pilot program, the NDOH will randomize 28 clinics in two provinces 1:1 to receive the six month dispensing intervention or continue standard of care, which currently allows for 2-3 month dispensing. The researchers will assess the patient outcomes of six month dispensing, administer a cross-sectional patient questionnaire, conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews with care providers and implementers, and estimate the costs to NDOH and to patients of six month dispensing. A maximum of 150,545 patients will be followed through their medical records and 400 patients and providers will be consented to be interviewed at baseline and after 6 months (total maximum sample size = 150,945).

The purpose of this epidemiologic study is to estimate the prevalence and incidence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in at-risk, exposed, affected populations. The study will also estimate the risk of SARS-CoV-2 exposure in target population.
