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.

Low radiation doses produce anti-inflammatory effects, which may be useful in the treatment of respiratory complications of COVID-19. This type of treatment is non-invasive and therefore, a priori, it can be used in all types of patients. Main objective: To evaluate the efficacy of low-dose lung irradiation as an adjunctive treatment in interstitial pneumonia in patients with COVID-19 by improving the PAFI O2 by 20% measured 48h after treatment with respect to the pre baseline measurement. -irradiation.

This is a three-arm randomized trial comparing the efficacy of single agent hydroxychloroquine to the combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin, and to a delayed hydroxychloroquine regimen, which will serve as a contemporaneous Day 1-6 supportive care control, in eliminating detectable SARS-CoV-2 on day 6 following the initiation of treatment in order to determine which regimen is more effective.

The clinical study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of inhaled nanoparticle nanoparticle formulation of Remdesivir (GS-5734) alone and in combination with NA-831 in 48 healthy volunteers.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of pulsed inhaled iNO compared to placebo in subjects with COVID-19.

SARS-CoV-2 is causing an unprecedented stress on healthcare systems around the world, due to its high rate of infection and the high morbidity and mortality. The COVID-19 infection triggers an inflammatory cascade with cytokine synthesis, prompting the immune response. Low dose radiotherapy (LD-RT) (≤ 100 cGy) induces an anti-inflammatory response, lowering levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β or inhibit leukocyte recruitment. LD-RT has been used historically for the pneumonia treatment reporting a rapid clinical improvement (within the first week), as well as a reduced mortality (from around 30% to 10%). Considering these results, LD-RT can potentially afford a therapeutic benefit against SARS-CoV-2. The study purpose is to evaluate prospectively the safety and efficacy of LD-RT for SARS-CoV-2.

The administration of low-dose lung irradiation produces anti-inflammatory effects that will decrease the pulmonary inflammatory response. The present study will evaluate the efficacy of treatment with low-dose pulmonary radiotherapy added to standard support therapy, in hospitalized patients with respiratory symptoms due to COVID-19 pneumonia, who do not experience improvement with conventional medical therapy and are not subsidiaries of ICU
Shanghai Junshi Bioscience Co., Ltd.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase I clinical study to evaluate the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetic profile and immunogenicity of JS016 (anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody) injection in Chinese healthy subjects after intravenous infusion of single dose.Eligible patients will be injection JS016 (anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody)

The severity of COVID-19 is related to the level of hypoxemia, respiratory failure, how long it lasts and how refractory it is at increasing concentrations of inspired oxygen. The inability to perform hematosis due to edema that occurs from acute inflammation could be attenuated by the administration of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Recently, it has been reported benefits in this matter in patients with SARS-CoV-2 hypoxemic pneumonia in China; where the administration of repeated HBO sessions decreased the need for mechanical ventilation (MV) in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit due to COVID-19. Hyperbaric oxygen is capable of increasing drastically the amount of dissolved oxygen in the blood and maintain an adequate supply oxygen to the tissues. In addition to this, it can influence immune processes, both humoral and cellular, allowing to reduce the intensity of the response inflammatory and stimulate antioxidant defenses. HBO is considered safe and it has very few adverse events, it is a procedure approved by our authorities regulatory for several years. In the current context of the pandemic by COVID-19 and worldwide reports of mortality associated with severe cases of respiratory failure, it is essential to propose therapeutical strategies to limit or decrease respiratory compromise of severe stages by COVID-19. That is why, it is proposed to carry out this research to assess whether HBO treatment can improve the evolution of patients with COVID-19 severe hypoxemia.

There is a considerable variation in the disease behavior in terms of contracting the infection, manifesting none to a range of symptoms and severity of the infection among individuals exposed to or infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus, the causative organism of COVID-19. Although the respiratory system appears to be the primary target of this virus infection, emerging evidences suggests involvement of extra-pulmonary organs including central nervous system. We aim to compare the genetic profile of individuals with vs without COVID-19 after being exposed to infected cases. Additionally, we will assess the cognitive function in covid-19 positive cases with vs. without neurological symptoms at the time of infection and 1-month follow-up using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) questionnaire.
