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.

This study will compare the impact of two systems above low-flow nasal cannula on the arterial oxygen tension in patients with COVID-19. The two systems are the Surgical Mask (SM) and the Double-Trunk Mask (DTM).

This study evaluates the effects of the Survivorship Wellness Group Program following active treatment, as well as to learn from Survivorship Wellness participants about their concerns regarding the current COVID-19 pandemic. This study may help to evaluate the impact of the survivorship program on patient well-being, provide evidence for use in grant application and publications, and ultimately inform the continued improvement of survivorship care.

It is known that vitamin D has been found to decrease incidence of viral respiratory infections, as well as have effects on multiple cytokines involved in immunomodulation and the bradykinin/renin-angiotensin system. Recently, data was released showing a correlation between baseline vitamin D deficiency status and increased risk of contracting COVID-19. Separate analysis shows that many of the deleterious effects of COVID-19 may be due to the bradykinin/RAS system, and that vitamin D is one plausible treatment option to modulate these effects. Studies are currently ongoing to determine if vitamin D supplementation of those hospitalized with COVID-19 has a beneficial effect on patient outcomes. Healthcare resources have been strained during the pandemic in areas of heavy caseload. It is possible that those with concurrent vitamin D deficiency and COVID positivity have an increased need for escalation of care. A small study has been conducted in this area, but was limited by small number of subjects.

The International Registry of Healthcare Workers Exposed to COVID-19 Patients (UNITY Global), is an international registry of approximately 10,000 healthcare workers in low- and middle-income countries experiencing increasing numbers of COVID-19 cases and commensurate increased exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus among their healthcare worker populations.

Clinical Role of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone and which of them should be inhibited in COVID-19 patients - A double-edged sword? COVID-19 attacks and affects Males significantly more than females [1], [2]. Males with COVID-19 are reported to die at twice the rate of females when they come infected with the virus [3]. The upregulation of TMPRSS2 by androgens could explain the increased susceptibility to COVID-19 in men.Contrary to expected, as a study demonstrated that The expression level of TMPRSS2 increased 6-fold in androgen stimulated LNCaP cells, relative to androgen-deprived cells[4]. But, surprisingly, low levels of testosterone led to the over expression and upregulation of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 receptors, facilitating SARS-CoV-1 entry into the alveolar cells, and deregulating a lung-protective pathway [5].According to literature Dihydrotestosterone is many times more potent than testosterone, and many of the effects that testosterone has in the body only happen after it is converted to dihydrotestosterone [6]. Therefore, we hypothesis that testosterone has better effect than dihydrotestosterone in case of COVID-19, because a study found that DHT significantly induced the expression of TMPRSS2 [7]. And at the same time , decreased testosterone levels in critically diseased males harmfully affect pulmonary endothelial cell functioning, impair the ability to clear the virus , promote systemic . Obesity among males, promote defective immune response, , and also generates more pro-inflammatory cytokines important in cell signaling, emanating in increased, severe disease, worst outcome and vulnerability. Insufficient serum testosterone level is a poor prognostic indicator for patients infected with COVID-19 by downregulation pulmonary protective pathways [5], [8]. On the contrary, high testosterone levels can lead to complication of thrombosis which is also one of the serious manifestations in COVID-19 patients[9]. Thereby we hypothesize that decreased testosterone levels in men have a direct relation with the severity of infection and a worse outcome in COVID-19. In this case we should found an appropriate treatment that induces testosterone level to introduce its protective effect and up regulate pulmonary protective pathways and at the same time protect against thrombosis and works to reduce the impact of dihydrotestosterone on lung cells preventing up regulation of TMPRSS2, Her we shed new light on the appropriate treatment can overcome the challenges that face testosterone therapy in the era of COVID-19 After searching MEDLINE , PubMed, , Google Scholar, preprints and Controlled Trials until September , 2020 we found that the appropriate treatment in this case is aerosolized 13 cis retinoic acid in combination with testosterone therapy, as more than one study found that 13 cis retinoic acid reversibly and potentially inhibit the effect of dihydrotestosterone on different targeted cells. In addition its impact on thrombin.

This is a prospective, randomized (1:1), double blind study of Convalescent anti-SARS-CoV-2 MBT Plasma (also known as convalescent plasma) plus standard medical treatment (SMT) versus placebo plus SMT in mild or moderate COVID-19 patients who are non-hospitalised. Subjects with confirmed infection by SARS-CoV-2 will receive SMT plus a total of 200-300 mL of convalescent plasma that has been pathogen-inactivated using MBT or placebo. Approximately 474 individuals will be randomized (1:1) with an interim analysis after the first 60 subjects (30 in each arm). The sample size will be re-assessed upon interim analysis. Approximately 135 individuals from selected study sites will be included in the substudy to assess the immune response and the methods of sampling.

Approximately 135 individuals from selected study sites will be included in the substudy to assess the immune response and the methods of sampling. The investigational product will be administered by IV infusion at baseline. Participants will continue their standard medical treatment (SMT) for SARS-CoV-2 infection as prescribed by their regular physician. If applicable, SMT may be modified during the study, depending on personal requirements, the severity and progression of the disease, and need for hospitalization. Subjects' participation (from inclusion/baseline visit to the end-of-study visit) will be up to 60 days.
