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.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the incidence and clinical features of the maternal COVID 19 infection, as well as the associated morbidity of the mother and the child, in the French context

This feasibility study is being conducted to understand how discharged emergency department patients who were tested for the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) engage with a symptom-tracking web application. Study participants that are enrolled in the study will be asked to enter daily information about their health into the CovidX web application (app.). In addition, patients will answer questions regarding anxiety levels, use a pulse oximeter to record information (if you own one or are given one). The investigators predict that participants will be able to engage with the CovidX web application over several days to weeks for the purposes of symptom tracking, and may have decreased anxiety over the study period.

Since the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19), an unprecedented global search for potential therapeutics and vaccines is ongoing. In this study, a combination of two drugs that have been shown to be effective against the germ that causes COVID-19 in the laboratory will be tested in patients diagnosed with moderate to severe COVID-19. One of the drugs is called nitazoxanide and the second is atazanavir/ritonavir. Nitazoxanide has been used for the treatment of diarrhea since 2004 while atazanavir/ritonavir was approved for HIV treatment in 2003. They are known to be safe in humans. In this pilot study, 98 COVID-19 patients will be recruited into two groups. The 49 patients in group 1 will receive the standard of care determined by their primary care providers while the 49 patients in group 2 will receive both the standard of care combined with the two study drugs. Patients in group 2 will receive the study drugs for 14 days and all patients will be monitored for a total of 28 days. The time it takes for the germ that causes COVID-19 to be completely removed from the body (in nasal secretions) and the time to clinical improvement will be monitored in all patients and compared between the two groups.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics of lanadelumab administered by intravenous (IV) infusion when added to standard-of-care (SoC) in adults hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia.
Beyond Air Inc.
The purpose of this open label, 2-phase, study is to obtain information on the safety of 80 ppm and the safety and efficacy of 150 ppm Nitric Oxide given in addition to the standard of care of patients with COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2.

- This is a phase II randomized study of convalescent plasma for the treatment of non-immune individuals with COVID-19 infection at high risk of complications. - Subjects will be considered as having completed the study after 2 months (+/- 5) days, unless consent withdrawal or death occurs first. - Subjects will be randomized to receiving convalescent plasma or best supportive care. - Patients randomized to best supportive care may receive plasma should they require hospitalization for progression of COVID-19 disease. - The final analysis will be conducted once the last subject completes the 2-month visit or withdraws from the study.
Oregon Health and Science University
This phase II trial studies how well lopinavir/ritonavir works in treating COVID-19 positive patients with cancer and a weakened immune system (immune-suppression) in the last year and have mild or moderate symptoms caused by COVID-19. Lopinavir/ritonavir may help to lessen or prevent COVID-19 symptoms from getting worse in cancer patients.

The Canadian Paediatric Society recommends breastfeeding during COVID-19 infection. Human milk is the best form of infant nutrition providing significant protection against many illnesses for term and preterm infants. When mothers of hospitalized infants are unable to supply their milk, the recommended supplement is human donor milk. The impact of a pandemic on human milk banking is unknown. This study seeks to address this public health issue. Donor milk will be collected from the Rogers Hixon Ontario Human Milk Bank at Sinai Health System in Toronto. Samples will be analyzed for the COVID-19 virus specific nucleic acid and antibody in real-time and results will be immediately disseminated to relevant organizations to inform local, national and international guidelines surrounding donor milk banking to protect the health of infants.
