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.

Our purpose is to conduct a 4-arm placebo-controlled clinical trial to investigate the relative clinical efficacy of 300 mg. of pure hemp-derived CBD isolate, 300 mg. of full spectrum CBD oil, 300 mg. of broad- spectrum CBD Oil, or Placebo oil among adults presenting with COVID-19 -induced stress reactions including one or more of the following: anxiety, depression, anger, substance use, or sleep disturbance.

This is a double blind randomized placebo controlled study will be conducted on 124 subjects, 50 years and older with mild or asymptomatic COVID-19. If symptomatic, symptoms are mild (cough, weakness, sore throat, low grade fever 38.50С, respiratory rate should not be more than 22 / min, resting SpO2 >95%, normal highly sensitive C-reactive protein (HS-CRP) (

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is keeping people apart, which can take a toll on physical and mental health. Many healthcare professionals are concerned vulnerable seniors may become deconditioned, which substantially increases risk of health complications and need for hospitalization. To address the immediate impact of COVID-19 policies (i.e., physical distancing, reduced access to care), the GERAS Frailty Rehabilitation model will be adapted to be delivered remotely in the homes of vulnerable seniors. The investigators' aim is to understand how to best build resilience among vulnerable seniors in the community through at-home rehabilitation services (socialization, exercise, nutrition, and medication support).

While novel drug discovery and vaccine studies are time taking process, re-purposing old drugs against the COVID-2019 epidemic can help identify treatments, with known pre-clinical, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and toxicity profiles, which can rapidly enter Phase 3 or 4 or can be used directly in clinical settings. Immunofree has many of the herbs which have been evaluated by other trials published for Covid-19 treatment. The Immunofree tablet of the test product is an Ayurvedic proprietary medicine and is a combination of polyherbal mixture. The components of this formulation are known for their anti-viral and immunomodulatory effects. Also, Reginmune, owing to its immunomodulatory effect might help in easing the symptoms and decrease the viral load.

Boswellia Serrata gum and Licorice extract are two nutritional agents that have pharmacological actions that could support the medical intervention for COVID-19. They have broad antiviral activity, anti-inflammatory, anti-lung injury, antibacterial activity, antithrombic formation, and immunomodulatory activity. The study will be conducted after January 18, 2017

Trial to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Nitazoxanide in the Treatment of Mild or Moderate COVID-19

The current severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is complicated by pneumonia (15 to 20% of cases) requiring hospitalization with oxygen therapy. Almost 20 to 25% of hospitalized patients require intensive care and resuscitation; half die. The main cause of death is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, some deaths have been linked to pulmonary embolism (PE). Recognition of PE is important because there is specific treatment to limit its own mortality. The identification of biological parameters of hemostasis predictive of thromboembolic disease is crucial in these patients. To evaluate the frequency of PE in the patients having to be hospitalized is to practice of a systematic thoracic angiography scanner in the patients having no contra-indication for its realization, as well as during hospitalization in patients deteriorating without any other obvious cause. The thromboembolic events and disturbances of the coagulation system described in patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonitis suggest that this viral infection is associated with an increase in the activation of coagulation contributing to the occurrence of thrombosis and especially from PE.

Based on Chinese studies, cardiac injury occurs in 20-30% of hospitalized patients and contributes to 40% of deaths. There are many possible mechanisms of cardiac injury in COVID-19 patients and increased myocardial oxygen demand and decreased myocardial oxygen supply are likely contributors to increased risk of myocardial infarction and heart failure. Interventions reducing the risk of cardiac injury are needed. Ketone bodies, such as 3-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate, can maintain ATP production in the heart and brain during starvation. It has been suggested that ketone bodies are more efficient substrates of energy metabolism than glucose, with a lower oxygen consumption per ATP-molecule produced. In addition, the reduction in hospitalizations due to heart failure observed in type 2 diabetes patients treated with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, is suggested to be partly attributable to increased levels of 3-hydroxybutyrate. Infusion with 3-hydroxybutyrate reaching a plasma level of approximately 3 mM had acute beneficial hemodynamic effects in patients with heart failure and in healthy controls in a study by Nielsen et al. Improved haemodynamics and reduced systemic oxygen consumption might be of great benefit in patients with COVID-19. The primary endpoint is left ventricular ejection fraction. Secondary endpoints are conventional echocardiography parameters, peripheral blood oxygen saturation, venous blood oxygen saturation and urine creatinine clearance. The study population are twelve previously hospitalized patients with COVID-19 The study design is a randomized placebo-controlled double-blinded crossed-over acute intervention study.
