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.

To ascertain globally the changes in the cytokines involved and TLRs/KIR activation in patients admitted to the hospital with a COVID-19 diagnosis, and the changes after initiation of the different therapies
Asociacion para el Estudio de las Enfermedades Infecciosas
The primary objective of this study is to establish differences in susceptibility to SARS CoV-2 infection among health care workers (HCW) highly exposed to patients with COVID-19 diagnosis. To ascertain this issue, we evaluated: - Changes in receptor polymorphism (ACE2 and CD26 receptor study. - SARS-CoV-2 CD4/CD8 T cell response (CTL) - Different KIR phenotypes
Dr Medhat Khafagy
Study of the cause of lymphopenia in Covid19 viral infection will be done in 3 cohorts. First cohort will be patients asymptomatic or with mild symptoms. Second cohort will be patients with severe illness and admitted to ICU. Third cohort will be patients critically ill and on artificial ventilation.
King Abdulaziz University
Natural products with immunomodulation and antiviral activity showed a promising improvement in the outcomes of some viral infectious diseases both in preclinical and primitive clinical studies. The aim of this study is to utilize Saudi FDA licensed Nigella sativa (NS) seed oil towards improving disease outcomes in adult patients diagnosed with mild COVID-19. The study will be a prospective, open-label, non-randomized controlled pilot trial. Patients will be supplemented (add-on) with one capsule of black seed oil twice daily for 10 days. The primary outcome will be the proportion of patients who clinically recovered on day 14. The secondary outcomes will be clinical parameters and routine laboratory tests. If encouraging outcomes occurred, NS supplementation may be recommended as an add-on to standard care protocol to enhance the recovery from COVID-19 disease in the current emerging situation.
University of Aarhus
The objective of this study is to assess the long-term outcomes after hospital admission with Covid-19 with respect to pulmonary function, physical capacity, imaging, quality of life and socioeconomic outcomes.
Instituto Costarricense de Investigaciones Clínicas ICIC
The purpose of the study is to verify the sensibility and accuracy of a rapid detection test for SARS-CoV-2 in breath samples analyzed by the breath detector analyzer TeraSystem, comparing with PCR tests.
Epicentre
The purpose of this study is to assess whether lopinavir/ritonavir (or eventually other antiviral drugs) is effective at reducing the rate of hospitalization among confirmed COVID-19 cases treated as outpatients.
IRCCS San Raffaele
To evaluate by intravascular OCT study the presence of microvascular pulmonary thrombosis in patients with COVID-19, high D-dimer levels and contrast CT scan negative for pulmonary thrombosis. We'll also evaluate the extension of microvascular pulmonary thrombosis in patients with contrast CT scan positive for pulmonary embolism in areas where contrast CT scan was negative.
Fundación GECP
Observational, retrospective data collection and prospective IgG analysis, and multicenter study. The main objective of the study is th description of the characteristics and evolution of patients with lung cancer who have acquired COVID-19 infection. For the identification of patients who contract COVID-19 infection, the IgG+ blood test by ELISA method will be used.
University of Copenhagen
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether nicotinamide riboside supplementation can attenuate the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infections in elderly patients. A major event in aging is the loss of the central metabolite nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) that appear to be important in the proinflammatory environment that occur during aging. Notably, recent work from our and other groups suggest that aging can be ameliorated by even a short-term treatment of the NAD+ precursor nicotinamide riboside. Nicotinamide riboside has recently been shown to be able to return aging tissues to a younger state even after short term treatment. This vitamin B3- analog is naturally occurring, is readily taken up through oral administration and has been tested in human trials with few side effects. In this randomized double blinded case-control trial, the investigators will treat elderly (>70 year old) COVID19 patients with 1 g of nicotinamide riboside (NR-E) or placebo for 2 weeks and investigate if this affects the clinical course of the disease.
