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.

To respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, investigators will be deploying community health workers, equipped with mobile technology, and accompanied by youth to visit households door to door to screen for symptoms of COVID-19, isolate, test, and manage suspected cases of COVID-19. The community health workers and youth will educate households about preventive measures including frequent handwashing and home management of mild cases. Simultaneously, investigators will work with nurses, doctors, and clinical officers, to test and treat more severe cases of COVID-19 in health facilities. Our goals are: to visit every household in Siaya county covering a population of close to 1 million, and to train and support health workers working in 32 health facilities with oxygen capacity in Siaya to reduce the morbidity and mortality related to COVID19 and other conditions.

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, two center, Phase I trial in healthy adult volunteer participants consisting of two phases, an unblinded dose escalation and a double blind treatment phase to investigate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a novel measles-vector based vaccine candidate against SARS-CoV-2 infection (TMV-083/V-591).

The nutritional consequences of the infection by the SARS-CoV-2 are as follows: - A severe respiratory infection induces an inflammatory syndrome and hypercatabolism, as well as an increase in energy expenditure related to ventilatory work; nutritional requirements (calories and protein) are therefore increased. - Food intake is often reduced by several factors: anorexia secondary to infection, respiratory discomfort, anosmia, ageusia, obesity, stress, confinement, organizational problems limiting meal assistance. Then, it is important to asses the nutritional status of COVID patients hospitalized in conventional COVID units (excluding intensive care).

SARS-CoV2 or CoVid19 disease is a newly described pathology linked to a subtype of the coronavirus family identified in China in December 2019. This pathology can present multiple clinical facets, ranging from asymptomatic forms to more commonly critical pulmonary forms called "Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome". The elderly population is more at risk for this infection due to the senescence of the immune system, co-morbidities and poly medications. They also often present a greater state of fragility. This study aims to report the epidemiology of the first 50 patients over 90 years of age hospitalized within the CHU Brugmann hospital.

The current pandemic of SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19 disease is an unprecedented global emergency. COVID-19 appears to be a disease with an early phase where the virus replicates, coinciding with first presentation of symptoms, followed by a later 'inflammatory' phase which results in severe disease in some individuals. It is known from other rapidly progressive infections such as sepsis and influenza that early treatment with antimicrobials is associated with better outcome. Antiviral medications are most likely to be effective when administered soon after infection. There is therefore an urgent need to study subjects who have recently developed symptoms, or have recently been tested positive with or without symptoms, and who can be sampled frequently to understand changes in viral load. This cohort will allow us to collect detailed trajectory data on early disease and understand how pharmacological interventions may affect this. The objective of the FLARE trial is to assess whether early antiviral therapy with either favipiravir + Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r), LPV/r or favipiravir is associated with a decrease in viral load compared with placebo. The hypothesis is that this holds for COVID-19 and that early antiviral treatment may prevent progression to the later phase of the disease.

The current Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has resulted in extraordinary public health orders of social distancing and self-isolation, leading to widespread disruption and discontinuation of cardiac rehabilitation programmes and other social opportunities for cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients to exercise. In Austria, the government initiated drastic public health measures (national lockdown) on March 16, 2020, leading to closure of all outpatient cardiac rehabilitation facilities and restriction of inpatient rehabilitation to patients with urgent medical indications only. This study aims to explore the impact of COVID-19-related national lockdown and public health restrictions on cardiac rehabilitation patients, with respect to maintenance of physical activity for secondary CVD prevention. The study poses three research questions, which will be addressed in a mixed-methods study with sequential quantitative-qualitative (QUANT-QUAL) design: 1. What was the impact of the COVID-19-related lockdown on patients' physical activity and physical fitness levels? (QUANT stage) 2. What was the patient experience of the closure of group-based cardiac rehabilitation training due to COVID-19 public health restrictions? (QUAL stage) 3. Which insights and learning points may be drawn from patients' experiences during COVID-19 public health restrictions with respect to the provision of home-based digital support for physical activity? (QUAL stage) The study will recruit a cohort of up to 40 cardiac rehabilitation patients from one outpatient cardiac rehabilitation centre in Salzburg, Austria, whose rehabilitation programme was interrupted by COVID-19 public health orders, including "lockdown". Patients will undergo re-assessment of physical fitness in cycle ergometry test and re-assessment of cardiovascular risk profile. This will be compared with patients' most recent available test results from before the COVID-19 lockdown (i.e. prior to mid-March 2020) from patient records. Additionally, patients will take part in a semi-structured qualitative interview in which they will be invited to reflect on their personal experiences during the COVID-19 lockdown and thereafter.

Myocardial injury, as assessed by elevation of cardiac troponins (Tnc), is frequent among patients with COVID-19. Although rare autopsy cases reported COVID-19 related myocardial inflammation, the origin of Tnc elevation is unknown to date. Several cardiac causes, such as myocarditis, non-ischemic myocardial injury (NIMI), or myocardial infarction (MI) may lead to Tnc kinetic. Our work will test the hypothesis that during SARS-Cov2 infection, the elevation of cardiac biomarkers could be linked to the occurrence of myocarditis.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is keeping people apart, which can take a toll on physical and mental health. Many healthcare professionals are concerned vulnerable seniors may become deconditioned, which substantially increases risk of health complications and need for hospitalization. To address the immediate impact of COVID-19 policies (i.e., physical distancing, reduced access to care), the GERAS Frailty Rehabilitation model will be adapted to be delivered remotely in the homes of vulnerable seniors. The investigators' aim is to understand how to best build resilience among vulnerable seniors in the community through at-home rehabilitation services (socialization, exercise, nutrition, and medication support).

The overarching goal of this study is to examine the efficacy of a brief video intervention in reducing stigma and fear, and improving help-seeking behavior, among health care providers (N=1,200), with pre- post- and follow-up assessments (at day 14 and day 30). Participants will be recruited via Amazon Turk and randomly assigned to either a) a video-based intervention (day 1 and a "booster intervention" of the same content on day 14 of the study) featuring the personal story of a health care provider during COVID-19 pandemic, his/her struggles and barriers to care, (b) video-based intervention (day 1 only), and a written description of the same story on day 14 (c) no-intervention control arm (questionnaires only). The invetsigators aim to (1) determine whether video-based intervention reduce stigma and fear, and increase help-seeking behavior in relation to COVID-19 among health care providers, and (2) compare high-risk areas (e.g., NY) to low-risk areas (e.g., Montana) on intervention outcomes, and (3) test whether symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD and Moral Injury (measured by the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7), the Primary Care PTSD Screen for DSM-5 (PC-PTSD-5) and the Moral Injury Events Scale (MIES)) would change over time.
