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.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) treatment will be provided to patients as an adjunct to standard therapy for a cohort of 40 COVID19-positive patients with respiratory distress at NYU Winthrop Hospital. All patients prior to the clinical application of HBOT will be evaluated by the primary care team and hyperbaric physician. After the intervention portion of this study, a chart review will be performed to compare the outcomes of intervention patients versus patients who received standard of care.
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
The researchers are doing this study to find out whether the study drug hydroxychloroquine can prevent infection with the COVID-19 virus, compared with placebo, in people who are receiving radiation therapy for their cancer. The placebo used in this study is a tablet that looks the same as the study drug and is taken in the same way, but it does not contain any active ingredients.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused a global pandemic and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The mortality rate for COVID-19 patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) who require mechanical intubation is approximately 75%. While the pathophysiology of severe COVID-19 has yet to be fully understood, it is possible that a combination of high viral loads and an overactive dysregulated inflammatory response may contribute. Therefore, the clearance of SARS-CoV-2 virus and cytokines could provide a more opportunistic environment for the innate immune system to clear the virus and establish lasting immunity. The Seraph®-100 Microbind® Affinity Blood Filter (Seraph®-100) is an extracorporeal broad-spectrum sorbent hemoperfusion filter for removing virus and cytokines from the blood. The FDA authorized an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for treatment of severe COVID-19 with the Seraph®-100. As part of the EUA, this registry study will collect de-identified data to assess safety and efficacy on the use of Seraph®-100 Microbind® Affinity Blood Filter in the treatment of COVID-19 patients.
Children's Hospital Colorado
The FDA has approved the CipherOx CRI T1 Tablet for use in subjects aged 19-36, and that this study aims to evaluate the device in subjects aged outside of this range and is being used off label. The FDA determined the Cipher OX CRI T1 Tablet to be a class II device in 2016, and additional research has been done since the FDA determination to further support the use of the device outside of its current labeling.
Johns Hopkins University
The investigators aim to deliver a tele-wellness supported app to Baltimore City's Family Child Care Home (FCCH) providers who are caring for children of Essential Personnel. Once a pre-survey is conducted, login information will be assigned to 30 Family Child Care Home providers and parents the FCCH serve. Providers and Parents will receive self-care and parenting/parent engagement support through the app and through a tele-wellness service, Ask a Nurse, provided by community health nurses at the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing. Children will have access to gamified learning materials in early literacy, math, social-emotional learning, and nutrition.

Cohort prospective study. Objectives : Primary objective: To describe the lung ultrasound lesions in pregnant women in case of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 Secondary objectives: - To compare the lung ultrasound lesions with chest Computed Tomography -scanner (CT-Scan) lesions - To evaluate the performances of the lung ultrasound to diagnose COVID-19 in pregnant women - To evaluate predictive value of different lung ultrasound lesions for intensive care unit admission of pregnant women with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 - To describe the pregnancy issues of the study population Course of the study: - Inclusion of pregnant suspected of having COVID-19 and cared following the service protocol - Performing of lung ultrasound at bedside in labor ward or in COVID unit Primary outcome: Lung ultrasound lesions (and corresponding score) at the moment of the initial management of pregnant women suspected or confirmed with COVID-19 (having a nasopharyngeal Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) SARS-CoV-2 and a chest CT-scan)

Diabetes is a major factor of morbi-mortality in Covid-19 infection. Currently, steroid therapy is required in patients under oxygen therapy. This treatment is associated with hyper glycaemia in patients with diabetes. Recommendations for the management of diabetes during Covid-19 infection is to use insulin treatment. The majority of units involves in the management of patient with Covid19 infection are not the experience in managing intensive insulin therapy and the time to ensure this follow-up. All the data in the literature are in favor of a positive impact of telemedicine on the metabolic control of diabetic patients. However, the routine use of telemedicine and more particularly tele-expertise within hospital units is very underdeveloped in France. The epidemic of Covid-19 represents a unique situation where the health authorities recommend to physicians to use telemedicine to ensure the follow-up and optimal management of patients. The aim of this study was to compare the metabolic control of diabetic patients infected with Covid-19 followed in tele-expertise to a group of diabetic patients infected with Covid-19 managed in standard conditions.

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
