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.

SARS-CoV-2 is causing an unprecedented stress on healthcare systems around the world, due to its high rate of infection and the high morbidity and mortality. The COVID-19 infection triggers an inflammatory cascade with cytokine synthesis, prompting the immune response. Low dose radiotherapy (LD-RT) (≤ 100 cGy) induces an anti-inflammatory response, lowering levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β or inhibit leukocyte recruitment. LD-RT has been used historically for the pneumonia treatment reporting a rapid clinical improvement (within the first week), as well as a reduced mortality (from around 30% to 10%). Considering these results, LD-RT can potentially afford a therapeutic benefit against SARS-CoV-2. The study purpose is to evaluate prospectively the safety and efficacy of LD-RT for SARS-CoV-2.
Vielight Inc.
The objective of this study is to obtain data on the efficacy of the Vielight RX Plus in decreasing time to recovery of symptoms in subjects with COVID-19. The study will be conducted among COVID-19 positive subjects at home in self-isolation via electronic data collection (EDC). There will be no physical contact between the subjects and the Qualified Investigator (QI) or other study staff. This study aims to demonstrate that the Vielight RX Plus is a useful adjunct to standard of care (SOC). We hypothesize that the Vielight RX Plus will accelerate recovery and reduce viral infection severity.
UserWise, LLC
This is an observational, prospective, non-randomized, non-significant risk study collecting voice recordings from subjects who are being tested for COVID-19 by laboratory analysis of specimens obtained by nasal or naso-pharyngeal (NP) swab. Patients record their voices through an app on their mobile phone. Patients and health care providers will be blinded to the swab test results during Phase 2 of the study.

According to various studies Covid 19 pneumonia has a very similar clinical course to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) which has clarified by Berlin definition. Based on this similarity, extracellular fluid of lungs and diffuse alveolar damage should be observed in covid 19 pneumonia as well. Extracellular water (ECW) can be determine by using whole body bioimpedence system (NİCaS). The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of ECW on the clinical apperence of covid 19 pneumonia clinical course.

The administration of low-dose lung irradiation produces anti-inflammatory effects that will decrease the pulmonary inflammatory response. The present study will evaluate the efficacy of treatment with low-dose pulmonary radiotherapy added to standard support therapy, in hospitalized patients with respiratory symptoms due to COVID-19 pneumonia, who do not experience improvement with conventional medical therapy and are not subsidiaries of ICU
Shanghai Junshi Bioscience Co., Ltd.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase I clinical study to evaluate the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetic profile and immunogenicity of JS016 (anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody) injection in Chinese healthy subjects after intravenous infusion of single dose.Eligible patients will be injection JS016 (anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody)
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
This phase III trial compares low dose whole lung radiation therapy to best supportive care plus physicians choice in treating patients with COVID-19 infection. Low dose whole lung radiation therapy may work better than the current best supportive care and physician's choice in improving patients' clinical status, the radiographic appearance of their lungs, or their laboratory blood tests.

Low doses of radiation in the form of chest x-rays has been in the past to treat people with pneumonia. This treatment was thought to reduce inflammation and was found to be effective without side effects. However, it was an expensive treatment and was eventually replaced with less expensive treatment options like penicillin. The COVID-19 virus has emerged recently, causing high rates of pneumonia in people. The authors believe that giving a small dose of radiation to the lungs may reduce inflammation and neutralize the pneumonia caused by COVID-19. For this study, the x-ray given is called radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high-energy X-ray beams from a large machine to target the lungs and reduce inflammation. Usually, it is given at much higher doses to treat cancers. The purpose of this study is to find out if adding a single treatment of low-dose x-rays to the lungs might reduce the amount of inflammation in the lungs from COVID-19 infection, which could reduce the need for a ventilator or breathing tube.
Baqiyatallah Medical Sciences University
180 people from the medical staff and high-risk people in Baqiyatallah Hospital, who are in close contact with patients, will enter the study. Participants will be divided into two intervention groups and one control group. The control group will use the full protective equipment assigned to the treatment staff. In addition to protective equipment, the first intervention team will receive a daily diet of 200 mg hydroxychloroquine tablets. The second intervention team, while observing and using the complete protective equipment, will place a thin layer of Mucodentol gel in the vestibular area of the mouth daily, every 6 to 8 hours. At the beginning of the treatment, qualified people will participate in the study while recording demographic and clinical information, PCR test will be performed, and if they have negative PCR, they will be in one of the 3 study groups. During the study, if the symptoms of the disease occur in each of the participants, the test will be taken again. If the test is positive, the person will withdraw from the study, and the patient's information will be recorded. Finally, the people present in the study will be tested for PCR, and the results of the disease and the side effects of the drugs will be compared.
