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.

Research Background and Rationale In December 2019, a new infectious respiratory disease emerged in Wuhan, Hubei province, China. An initial cluster of infections was linked to Huanan seafood market, potentially due to animal contact. Subsequently, human-to-human transmission occurred and the disease, now termed coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) rapidly spread within China and all over the world. A novel coronavirus, SARS-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which is closely related to SARS-CoV, was detected in patients and is believed to be the etiologic agent of the new lung disease. The causative agent of the current COVID-19 pandemic, SARS-CoV-2, is a single stranded positive sense RNA virus that is closely related to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV).

Coagulopathy of COVID-19 afflicts approximately 20% of patients with severe COVID-19 and is associated with need for critical care and death. COVID-19 coagulopathy is characterized by elevated D-dimer, an indicator of fibrin formation and clot lysis, and a mildly prolonged prothrombin time, suggestive of coagulation consumption. To date, it seems that COVID-19 coagulopathy manifests with thromboembolism, thus anticoagulation may be of benefit. We propose to conduct a parallel pragmatic multi-centre open-label randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of therapeutic anticoagulation compared to standard care in hospitalized patients admitted for COVID-19 with an elevated D-dimer.

Clinical Trial of Mycobacterium w in COVID-19 Positive Patients, Hospitalized But Not Critically Ill
This is a randomized, double blind, two arms, placebo controlled, clinical trial to study to evaluate the the safety and efficacy of Mycobacterium w in combination with standard of care versus placebo with standard of care for preventing the progression of COVID-19 disease and for reduction in transfer to ICU in COVID-19 infected patients admitted to the hospital.
Hospital Universitario Getafe
Double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT) of low-dose lenalidomide in the treatment of elderly patients (> 60 years of age) with mild to moderate clinical signs of COVID-19 disease from the Hospital Universitario of Getafe. The study will include patients of both sexes (> 60 years of age) with mild to moderate clinical presentation of COVID-19 (ROX index > 10). Subjects will be randomly assigned to the experimental arm with lenalidomide (5 mg/24h, day 1, 3 and 5) or to the controlled arm. Other concomitant medication for the treatment of COVID-19 will be also considered.

Based on data regarding the effect of colchicine on the modulation of immune system and decreasing cytokine release and inflammation the question arises whether colchicine, administered in a relatively low dose, could potentially have an effect on COVID-19 Polymerase chain reaction(PCR) positive patients .
