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.

Sars-Cov2 (COVID-19) may invade the CNS inducing neurological diseases such as anosmia, ageusia, encephalitis, ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. Management of severe neurological complications in COVID-19 patients may require ventricular cerebrospinal fluid drainage and cranial decompression. During surgery, cerebrospinal fluid, meninges and brain parenchyma can be safely removed from the patient. In this study, COVID-19 patients will be evaluated first, for the presence of Sars-Cov2 in the cerebrospinal fluid and/or biopsies and second, for the consequences of Sars-Cov2 neuroinfection in terms of inflammatory and immune responses.

Phase 1 - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo - To evaluate the virologic efficacy of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo in reducing viral load of SARS-CoV-2 Phase 2 • To evaluate the virologic efficacy of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo in reducing viral load of SARS-CoV-2 Phase 3 - Cohort 1 (≥18 Years Old, Not Pregnant at Randomization) • To evaluate the clinical efficacy of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo as measured by COVID-19-related hospitalizations or all-cause death - Cohort 2 (

Brief Summary: The goal here is to evaluate dipyridamole in treating respiratory tract infection and circulatory dysfunction due to SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus in hospitalized CVID-19 patients. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 causes human COVID-19 (HCoV-19). The infection is associated with a deleterious inflammatory response and a prothrombotic state in addition to tissue damage from direct viral entry and proliferation. Dipyridamole has anti-platelet and anti-inflammatory effects. The drug was recently demonstrated to have anti-SARS-Cov-2 effect primarily in vitro. The concentration causing anti-viral effect in vitro is within that in the blood of humans taking this drug. As an oral tablet, it has the advantage of easy administration. Anti thrombotic, anti viral and anti inflammatory actions of this drug may be efficacious and safe in hospitalized subjects

This clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of topical GLS-1200 nasal spray to reduce the incidence of confirmed, symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Revimmune
Comparison of the effects of CYT107 vs Placebo administered IM at 10μg/ kg twice a week for two weeks on immune reconstitution of lymphopenic COVID-19 patients.
Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust
This study aims to find out whether the use of angiotensin II, which is a drug to raise blood pressure has been approved by European Medical Agency in August 2019, as an add-on medication to increase blood pressure in patients with COVID-19, acute severe lung injury, inflammation and severe shock, compared with standard medication. In addition, the investigators will collect the data of Anakinra, another drug which is frequently used in this condition to reduce inflammation. The investigators will collect clinical data and outcomes from critical care patients. The investigators will analyse for whom these drugs are most beneficial and explore whether there are any patients who don't benefit or have side effects.

We hypothesize that inhaled steroid therapy and long acting beta 2 adrenergic agonist, widely prescribed in asthma patients, may also have a local protective effect against coronavirus infection, even in patients without asthma. The primary purpose is To compare time to clinical improvement in patients receiving standard of care associated to the combination budesonide/formoterol or standard of care only. Time (in days) to clinical improvement is defined as the time from randomization to an improvement of two points (from the status at randomization) on a seven-category ordinal scale or live discharge from the hospital, whichever came first within 30 days.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of the drug ruxolitinib in people diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia by determining the number of people whose conditions worsen (requiring machines to help with breathing or needing supplemental oxygen) while receiving the drug. This is a sub-study of the U-DEPLOY study: UHN Umbrella Trial Defining Coordinated Approach to Pandemic Trials of COVID-19 and Data Harmonization to Accelerate Discovery. U-DEPLOY helps to facilitate timely conduct of studies across the University Health Network and other centers.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic infection caused by a virus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Because SARS-CoV-2 is known to require the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) receptor for uptake into the human body, there have been questions about whether medications that upregulate ACE-2 receptors might increase the risk of infection and subsequent complications. One such group of medications are anti-hypertensives that block the renin-angiotensin system, including both angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB). Both ACEi and ARB are widely used for the treatment of hypertension. Early reports from China and Italy suggest that many of those who die from COVID-19 have a coexisting history of hypertension. Consequently, there have been questions raised as to whether these 2 types of blood pressure medication might increase the risk of death among patients with COVID-19. However, it is well known that the prevalence of hypertension increases linearly with age. Therefore, it is possible that the high prevalence of hypertension and ACEi/ARB use among persons who die from COVID-19 is simply confounded by age (older people are at risk of both a history of hypertension and dying from COVID-19). Whether these commonly prescribed blood pressure medications increase the risk of COVID-19 or not remains unanswered. Statements from professional cardiology societies on both sides of the Atlantic have called for urgent research into this question. Our study aims to randomize patients with primary (essential) hypertension who are already taking ACEi/ARB to either switch to an alternative BP medication or continue with the ACEi/ARB that they have already been prescribed. Adults with compelling indications for ACEi/ARB will not be enrolled.
