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.

Convalescent plasma has been shown to be safe and effective for treatment of several diseases. Preliminary data indicates that it is safe and effective for treatment of COVID. However, data is limited to small studies and case series on severely ill patients. In a preliminary safety study 10 patients with severe COVID-19, defined as requiring supplementary oxygen, having fever and a duration of illness less than 11 days were treated with 200 ml of CP. CP was given as a slow infusion without obvious adverse events. Eight patients had viremia. One patient rapidly cleared the virus and recovered following CP treatment. CP infusion did not appear to clear viremia in 7/8 patients. Five of these were eventually admitted to ICU. Thus CP did not appear to cause acute toxicity but did not seem to be effective at the dose used. Viremia seemed to be a marker of a high risk of disease progression The proposed study thus aims to treat a high risk population identified by having viremia irrespective of but hopefully before they develop pulmonary injury such that they require supplementary oxygen therapy. Moreover the dose of plasma will be increased incrementally with the aim of clearing viremia as our initial study indicates that continued viremia is driving COVID-19.

RuxCoFlam is a single arm, non-randomized open phase II trial for front line treatment of Covid-19 patients with defined hyperinflammation.
Capricor Inc.
This expanded access protocol will enroll subjects with a clinical diagnosis of COVID-19 confirmed by laboratory testing and who are in critical condition as indicated by life support measurements. Eligible subjects will receive open-label intravenous administration of investigational product (CAP-1002) containing 150 million allogeneic Cardiosphere-Derived Cells (CDCs). CAP-1002 administration will be conducted at the investigative site on Day 1 and weekly up to a maximum of 4 doses, based on clinical course. Subjects will complete protocol assessments at Screening; Day 1; Weeks 1-3; and Follow-up by phone 30 and 90 days after the last infusion. Baseline assessments will be conducted prior to first infusion on Day 1. The patient will be observed during the lengths of hospitalization and monitored for outcome and safety. Safety and outcome data will be collected and reported at the conclusion of treatment and follow-up.

A controlled trial of the drug tranexamic acid (TXA) in inpatients recently admitted to the hospital with the diagnosis of COVID19. It is hypothesized that TXA will reduce the infectivity and virulence of the virus.
Sanotize Research and Development corp.
This is a multi-center, randomized, controlled, phase II clinical efficacy study evaluating a novel Nitric Oxide Releasing Solution (NORS) treatment for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in healthcare workers at risk of infection. Participants will be enrolled into one of two components of this study. Based on initial swabs/symptoms, volunteers who are COVID-19 negative will be enrolled in the Prevention study and randomized to receive standard institutional precautions or standard institutional precautions + NORS. Those who are COVID-19 positive will be enrolled in the open-label Treatment Sub-Study.

Background: Aim: To demonstrate the efficacy of low-dose hydroxychloroquine as primary prevention in healthcare workers Design, participants and interventions: Prospective, randomized, parallel group, double-blinded, placebo controlled, study. including 440 participants who will be randomised to 2 treatment arms: hydroxychloroquine or placebo. Outcome variables: symptomatic or asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by PCR, viral load during SARS-CoV-2 infection, seroconversion during the study period, incidence of any acute respiratory infection, days of sick leave. Statistical considerations: No trials have been published investigating the efficacy of HCQ as primary prophylaxis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in health care workers. Thus, sample size calculations in the proposed trial are based on the investigators' best estimates for several parameters. In accordance to the effect of oseltamivir against symptomatic influenza, we assumed an approximate effectiveness of approximately 60% (HR of 0.4) (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6464969/) as realistic. As a prophylactic intervention with HCQ, which may have side effects and for which supply shortage can be expected, was judged justifiable only if its effectiveness is high, we based our sample size consideration on a HR of 0.3. To estimate the probability of an event in both the experimental and the control group, very little data is available. In a Dutch point-prevalence study 0-10% of health-care workers were infected depending on the healthcare institution, depending on the hospital. This point-prevalence study was performed between 6 and 9 March, when the reported number of cases in the Netherlands was 33 and 77, respectively, according to the RIVM (https://www.rivm.nl/nieuws/resultaat-steekproef-4-ziekenhuismedewerkers…). Additionally, in an a report published in the Lancet, 20% of responding healthcare workers in Italy were found to be infected with SARS-CoV2 within less than one month (https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)3062…). Several media reports indicate that this proportion is similar across various healthcare institutions and countries (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/24/world/europe/coronavirus-europe-covi…) and (https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/03/spain-tightens-restrictions-week… 30191539568.html). As the proposed study will be performed in a high-risk setting, we assumed an event (i.e. PCR positivity) probability of 10% in the control group and 3% in the experimental arm after the maximum study period. In summary, a sample size of 210 participants per arm is necessary to detect a HR of 0.3 with a power of 80.3% with an alpha-error of 0.05. To account for drop-outs and asymptomatic, undetected infection at inclusion or past infection with existing immunity, an additional 10 participants will randomized per treatment arm. The overall study population is therefore 440 participants. Statistical analysis will be based on two populations: A Modified Intention to Treat population excluding those who withdrew consent after randomization and those with a positive serology at baseline. And a per protocol population including all randomized subjects who completed at least 3 out of 4 follow-up visits and took at least 80% of all doses of study medication.
