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 purpose of the study is to describe disability following hospitalization in people of working-age surviving COVID-19.
Rigshospitalet, Denmark
For patients admitted with COVID-19 infection, it is often difficult to predict if or when their clinical condition will deteriorate. However subtle changes in vital signs are usually present 8 to 24 hours before a life-threatening event such as respiratory failure leading to ICU admission, or unanticipated cardiac arrest. Such adverse trends in clinical observations can be missed, misinterpreted or not appreciated as urgent. New continuous and wearable 24/7 clinical vital parameter monitoring systems offer a unique possibility to identify clinical deterioration before patients condition progress beyond the point-of-no-return, where adverse events are inevitable. The primary aim of this study is to test the effect of continuous wireless vital signs monitoring with generation of real-time alerts through a purpose-built GUI, compared to standard EWS monitoring on the cumulative duration of any severely deviating vital signs
Nanowear Inc.
The NanoCOAT study is a multi-center, prospective, non-randomized, feasibility, observational, non-significant risk study. The NanoCOAT study will enroll a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 100 subjects in a potential for a multi-site in order to collect data and analyze physiological and biometric trends due to Covid-19.

Objective: To determine whether NIV delivered through helmet interface reduces intubation rate among patients with COVID-19 ARDS compared to face-mask NIV and HFNC. Design, setting & participants: Two-center randomized clinical trial of 360 patients with mild to moderate ARDS and confirmed COVID-19 requiring non-invasive ventilation between August 2020 to January 2021. The patients with respiratory rate (RR) more than 30/min or oxygen saturation (SpO2) less than 90% or PaO2/FiO2 ratio less than 300 despite standard oxygen therapy by face mask (
Boston Children's Hospital
The purpose of this study is to advance the scientific understanding of how a prenatal COVID-19 infection and associated psychological distress influences infant neurodevelopment. This project will aim to shed light on how families and child development are impacted by the current COVID-19 pandemic and will work to better support these families and children as they grow.
Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority
The purpose of this research is to remotely monitor individuals who have tested positive for COVID-19 to learn more about progression and recovery from the disease. Individuals who test positive for COVID-19 will wear the Current Health wearable device continuously and answer a brief series of questions on Current Health tablet daily for up to 30 days. The health data will be used to develop predictive models of hospitalization risk.
University of California, San Francisco
There is an unmet need to evaluate the impact of sub-clinical/mild COVID19 disease in the outpatient setting on prevalent and incident renal injury, as this data is currently unavailable. To capture the diversity of race/ethnic risk and COVID19 related municipal shelter-in-place guidance, the investigators will enroll COVID19-negative and COVID19-positive samples balanced by race/ethnicity from 3 different states, California, Michigan, and Illinois. Study endpoints will be assayed from urine samples mailed to the study team at 2, 6, and 12 months after their date of PCR test, with no requirement for these individuals to leave their homes to participate.
BioAge Labs, Inc.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of BGE-175 in participants ≥ 50 years of age hospitalized with documented COVID-19.

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) emerged in late 2019 and has since been diagnosed in over a million persons worldwide. As this virus progresses, it causes an extreme and uncontrolled response from the patient's immune system accompanied by reduced oxygen flow to major organs, and subsequent ischaemic injury. The current treatment of COVID-19 is largely supportive without any cure or vaccine available at this time. Developing new methods to reduce this heightened inflammatory response is essential to halting progression of COVID-19 in patients and reducing the severity of damage. The cellular mechanisms seen in COVID-19 are similar to those seen in patients with sepsis. A process known as Remote Ischemic Conditioning (RIC) is an intervention which has been shown to prevent cellular injury including those associated with sepsis. Based on the evidence from studies looking at sepsis, it is anticipated the same benefit would be seen in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. RIC is a simple, non-invasive procedure where a blood pressure cuff is applied to the arm for repeated cycles of inflating and deflating (typically 3-5 cycles of 5 minutes each). This process activates pro-survival mechanisms in the body to protect vital organs and improve the immune system. Therefore, we believe it represents an exciting strategy to protect organs against reduced blood flow and extreme immune response, as seen in COVID-19 infections. This study has already been fully approved
Institut Català de la Salut
Recently, a new clinical presentation called "long covid" has been reported, for patients with symptoms lasting for more than 4 weeks from the onset of the disease. Typically, the symptoms comprise dyspnea, cough, headache, arthralgia, fever, abdominal pain, asthenia and skin manifestations This project aims to evaluate the efficacy of Montelukast in improving the quality of life associated with respiratory symptoms in patients with persistent COVID-19 symptoms. The main objective is to compare the efficacy of low-dose Montelukast versus placebo to improve respiratory symptoms in patients with persistent COVID-19 symptoms.
