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.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2/3 Study of LAU-7b against confirmed COVID-19 Disease in hospitalized patients at a higher risk of complications.
Universidade Nova de Lisboa
This is a multicenter prospective study that aims to investigate the clinical impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women, pregnancy outcomes and perinatal transmission.

Lower Respiratory Tract infections are a common cause of admission to the intensive care unit. Children routinely receive antibiotics until the tests confirm whether the infection is bacterial or viral. The exclusion of bacterial infection may take 48 hours or longer for culture tests on biological samples to be completed. In many cases, the results may be inconclusive or negative if the patient has already received antibiotics prior to the sample being taken. A rapid assay to detect the most likely cause of infection could improve the speed with which antibiotic therapy is rationalised or curtailed. This study aims to assess whether a new genetic testing kit which can identify the presence of bacteria and viruses within hours rather than days is a feasible tool in improving antibiotic prescribing and rationalisation of therapy in critically ill children with suspected lower respiratory tract infection.

Botox treatment into the upper one third of the face (glabella, forehead lines and/or lateral canthal lines) to analyze mood and self -appearance satisfaction in a Post Covid period on non-naïve Botox patients

This protocol tests the safety and efficacy of a novel universal vaccine concept called "allo-priming" which is designed to protect elderly adults from progression of any type of viral infection, including possible protection against progression of the current outbreak of COVID-19 infection, and any future variants, strains, mutations of the causative SARS-CoV-2 virus as well as protection from any future currently unknown newly emergent novel viruses.

Around 30% of admitted patients with COVID-19 pneumonia develop a hyper-inflammatory state whose progression to an acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARSD) could be prevented by the early initiation of immune-modulatory agents. The role of glucocorticoids (GC) in this setting remains controversial. This study aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of GC pulses to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia with risen inflammatory biomarkers.

A new virus to humans, first identified in December 2019, is causing a global pandemic with over 1 million infections and many thousands of deaths. The virus, SARS-CoV2, leads to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which mainly affects the breathing system. Around 1 in every 5 people with COVID-19 have more severe infection needing treatment in hospital. Up to half of them require help with breathing in an intensive care unit. Information we have so far about COVID-19 suggests that people with underlying conditions, such as high blood pressure and heart disease, or older people are at higher risk of having severe illness. Scientists do not yet understand why but think it may be related to the immune system. SARS-CoV2 activates the immune system causing inflammation in the lungs, which is also seen in circulating immune cells in the blood. Preliminary reports show that the response of the immune system can be inappropriate, both overactive and also poorly responsive (exhausted). Changes in the type and function of immune cells have been linked to increased risk of severe disease or death from COVID-19. In this study, the investigators will look for markers of immune function when a person first attends hospital, which can be used to predict whether they will go on to have a more severe infection. This will help treat patients more effectively, for example, by moving high risk patients to an intensive care setting at an early stage. The team will investigate the immune system in detail in 200 patients with COVID-19 attending University Hospitals Plymouth. The investigators will look for changes in the number, type and function of circulating immune cells and measure whether these changes are linked to severity of the infection or death. The investigators will use established techniques to measure immune function that could be rapidly put into routine hospital care to help guide treatment for individual patients.

Study to assess the safety and efficacy of STI-5656 (Abivertinib Maleate) plus SOC versus SOC in subjects hospitalized with COVID-19
Acibadem University
Aim of the study is to investigate whether the Covid-19 is found in the vaginal swab samples of female patients diagnosed with covid-19, to evaluate the presence of Covid-19 and the risk of transmission of Covid-19 by intercourse or vaginal delivery.

The aim of this preliminary study is to describe the potential decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) or forced vital capacity (FVC) as measured by home spirometry in high-risk subjects infected with COVID-19. We hypothesize that the magnitude of such a decline in FEV1 and/or FVC may be associated with clinical deterioration and hospitalization. The study will ultimately inform a larger subsequent RCT that will evaluate the efficacy of home spirometry in the early detection (pre respiratory symptoms) of respiratory complications and therefore prompt early medical attention which is a key for improving outcome.
