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.

Critical illness myopathy and neuropathy are associated with prolonged mechanical ventilation, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality in intensive care units, .the investigators aimed to determine the decrease in muscle mass and risk factors that are important causes for the development of myopathy in COVID-19 (+) patients followed in intensive care unit. The study will also evaluate the relationships of patients withthe investigators intensive care-associated muscle weakness (ICU-AW) with other intensive care patient weight scores (SOFA, APACHE II, q SOFA). Sensitivity of anthropometric measurements and ultrasonographic measurements will be compared in the evaluation of sarcopenia. The length of hospital stay, mechanical ventilation time, patient outcomes (mortality/morbidity) information of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia followed in the intensive care unit will be evaluated.

The study aims to evaluate if the early prone-positioning in awake patients with mild Covid-19 pneumonia can reduce the need of high-flow oxygen-therapy, invasive or non-invasive ventilation and prevent the worsening of clinical conditions. Patients will be randomized on a 1:1 ratio and stratified based on the onset of symptoms (10 days) and need of oxygen therapy (no need; need). One branch of patients (interventional) will undergo standard of care treatment + prone-positioning cycles, the other one (controll) will undergo standard of care treatment alone. Patients will be evaluated evaluated on the day of the enrolment, on day 1, day 3, day 7 and every 7 days until the patient dismissal or until day 28 (whichever occurs first). Adverse events and concurrent medications will be noted as well. The analysis will be conducted according to "intention to treat" criteria; primary outcomes will be calculated using survival-based methods.

In recent months, more and more studies suggest tele-rehabilitation as a means to be exploited to reduce the risk of contagion. The intent of our study is to verify the effectiveness of a tele-rehabilitation intervention through the application of a respiratory rehabilitation program supported by contact with physiotherapists, in patients with outcomes from SARS-CoV-2 infection discharged from the various medical departments and taken over by physiotherapists after physiatric evaluation. Faced with the same rehabilitation program prescribed to all patients, the primary objective of our study is to detect whether patients supported by remote rehabilitation after hospitalization improve both adherence to the rehabilitation program and cardiorespiratory endurance and dyspnea symptoms assessed with the Six Minute Walking Test scale (6MWT). This test is validated for multiple pathologies, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, the clinic of which could be comparable to the outcomes of coronavirus interstitial pneumonia as suggested by the literature. The secondary objectives concern the assessment of the impact of physical exercise assisted by tele-rehabilitation detected through: the assessment of the quality of life (Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire );the assessment of autonomy in daily life activities (Barthel Index Dyspnea Scale), the evaluation of the variation in thoracic expansion and lung volumes (with COACH , an instrument for respiratory physiotherapy that measures the inspiratory volume in ml); the evaluation of muscle strength and endurance (One Minute Sit To Stand) ; the detection of dyspnea during the execution of the exercises (Modified Borg scale); the assessment of the functionality of the lower limbs (Short Physical Performance Battery)
Unity Health Toronto
Stress, anxiety, distress and depression are exceptionally high among healthcare workers at the frontline of the COVID-19 pandemic. Factors underlying distress and resilience are unknown and there are no evidence based interventions to impact the mental wellbeing of frontline healthcare workers. This study will evaluate a novel virtual reality platform to gather the "distress experience" of frontline healthcare workers at Unity Health Toronto in real time during the ongoing COVID pandemic by developing and showing feasibility of digital technology (Virtual Reality (VR) and mobile app) as a digital platform to understand the causes and ultimately reduce the moral distress of healthcare providers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The project will develop innovations which can be used for future pandemics and other contexts prone to producing moral distress and injury.

In the literature, there are studies examining the effects of telerehabilitation on individuals who have had COVID-19, but studies examining the effects on healthcare workers who have experienced COVID-19 are insufficient. In this study, which is planned to be done, it is aimed to examine the effects of myofascial relaxation technique on pain and other symptoms through telerehabilitation. The aim of the study is to examine the effects of myofascial relaxation technique applied with the telerehabilitation method on pain level, anxiety, depression, sleep, fatigue and kinesiophobia in healthcare workers with and without COVID-19 infection with pain.

Aerobic Versus Anaerobic Exercise on Immune Functions and Disease Severity in Patients With COVID-19
Participants were assigned randomly into two groups, aerobic exercise and resistance exercise groups. All participants in both groups followed the WHO guidelines of quarantine and used standardized medications given by the physician according to the Turkish Ministry of Health guidelines, including the Hydroxyclorocin Sulphate 200 Mg Film Tablet (Plaquenil 200 Mg Film Tablet). The dose was 2 times/ day, 200Mg/time, for 5 days. Besides, the aerobic exercise group performed moderate-intensity aerobic exercises for 40 min/ 3 sessions/week, 40 minute/session, and the resistance exercise groups 40 min/ 3 sessions/week, 40 minute/session.
