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.

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of chest computed tomography (CT) in detecting signs of viral pneumonia has become clear from the literature. However, the increased patient flow creates an additional pressure on CT centers. We believe, the use of chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help to test patients for CОVID-19 when CT scan is not available. Lung MRI may be useful in routing a patient in a difficult epidemiological situation.

This project is based in the implementation of a combined monitoring system (technological solutions and medical visits) in survivors of the critical illness due to the infectious disease by COVID-19. The main objective of the project is to characterize the Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) and detect early needs for specific treatment.

The Covid-19 has, in a few weeks, made the world tremble: the number of deaths (mainly elderly and / or co-morbid) continues to increase, the confinement causes the collapsing of the economy and the decline of relationships inter-human. The data are too fragmented and the disease too recent to know its repercussions on the 3 million French people who have or have had cancer. The investigators would like, in 3 populations: * patients in treatment, * or in follow-up and * health personnel, to constitute a large prospective and longitudinal database of data: i / serological: humoral response, test performance, monitoring of serum immunoglobulin levels , reinfection threshold,…; ii / clinical: incidence, severity, mortality and their favorable factors impact of cancer treatment on Covid-19 infection and modification of the quality of oncological care in the context. In parallel, on a more limited sample of establishments, it will be : * appreciate the economic and functional repercussions, * will try to find out about the infection modalities in patients and health personnel and * will appreciate the levels of anxiety and depression to which health staff are subject.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) SARS-CoV-2, name of the Coronavirus Group of international Committee on taxonomy of viruses, is an emerging virus from the family of coronaviridae, responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. This infection can progress to viral pneumonia, and in 3% of cases up to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) which conditions the prognosis of the disease. Due to its unusual clinical presentation with a risk of sudden deterioration on the 8th day as a result of possible hyperinflammatory response, the respiratory impairment of COVID is unique and many questions remain unanswered concerning its evolution once the acute phase has passed. Knowledge of the evolution of pulmonary involvement, particularly in patients requiring hospitalization, can help reduce the morbidity linked to the persistent abnormalities identified by establishing early therapeutic management. It can also provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of pulmonary involvement in the acute phase. Current data regarding the acute phase of COVID-19 suggest that persistent abnormalities remain distant from this infection at all levels of the respiratory system: gas exchange, perfusion, ventilatory mechanics, and interstitial lung disease. The main objective is to characterize persistent gas exchange anomalies 4 months after documented COVID-19 pneumonia, resulting in oxygen desaturation and requiring hospitalization.

According to epidemiological models, the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Île-de-France as of 11 May was between 10 and 15%. Preliminary data on the number of professionals evicted from nurseries on suspicion of COVID-19 (on clinical grounds) seem to be of the same order of magnitude, but need to be confirmed by a biological technique. Children would be susceptible to infection but often asymptomatic.

This study intends to find out how a cloth mask may impact exercise capacity, to provide guidance for exercisers to adjust their expectations and training accordingly. The investigators plan to asses exercise capacity through estimated peak oxygen consumption (eVO2peak), oxygen saturation and level of perceived exertion during treadmill based exercise while wearing a cloth mask compared to exercising without a cloth mask. The potential significance of this study is to determine if subjects can exercise safely and if their exercise training needs to be adjusted while following the current recommendations of wearing a cloth mask in public. The degree of airflow limitation experienced will depend on the type and fit of the mask being worn, and inadequeate airflow could possibly result in CO2 re-breathing if all air was not fully discharged from the mask with each breath. This re-breathing of CO2 could potentially limit the workload leading to a detriment in performance, and increase in adverse symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, chest pain or shortness of breath that does not improve with rest.
Fonds NOMINOE
Since the start of this epidemic, numerous clinical and fundamental studies have been conducted to best adapt the individual management of COVID-19 cases [1-6]. In parallel with this work, it is necessary to better understand the characteristics of the epidemic in the general population but also in the population working in healthcare settings more exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Seroprevalence studies are therefore particularly useful in order to understand the collective immunization rate and the factors that can explain this immunization.

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.
