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.

In December 2019 the first case of human infection by a new coronavirus was identified, currently called SARS-COV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - Coronavirus - 2), characterized by high contagiousness and the possibility of causing a severe acute respiratory distress syndrome from which its acronym derives and which caused the state of a global pandemic in a few months. The most frequent clinical manifestation of COVID-19 is pneumonia, which in about 20% of cases results in acute respiratory failure. Very few studies have so far addressed the problem of clinical and functional recovery in these patients, most of them just before or after discharge and none specifically focused on patients admitted for ARF. Indeed most of these investigations were limited to a specific field such as symptoms, pulmonary function and radiological changes. There are no guidelines for the follow-up of COVID-19 patients, despite the British Thoracic Society (BTS) has published a guidance for scheduling post-hospitalization assessments. Aim of this study is to describe the long term (6 to 12 months) evolution of lung involvement in patients discharged after an episode of ARF due to COVID-19, identifying possible factor associated to lasting clinical, functional or radiological abnormalities collecting data from hospital stay, 1-month after hospital discharge, 3-months after hospital discharge and 6-to-12-months after hospital discharge.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a pandemic of unprecedented proportions with an exponential increase in incidence. Airway epithelium infection caused by coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) triggers a cascade of difficult-to-control reactions, a so-called "cytokine storm". In contrast to the previously used method of external beam radiation therapy for patients at high risk of a cytokine storm, in present study a different dose delivery mechanism through inhalation of 99mTc-labeled carbon ultrafine aerosol obtained from a TechnegasPlus generator is used. By utilizing anthropometric phantoms the dosimetric characteristics of the applied technique and obtained the coefficients of the transition from the count rate over the area of interest to the activity contained in this area (in kBq) were studied. By observing a group of healthy volunteers after inhalation of 99mTc-labeled carbon ultrafine aerosol, the accumulated dose in the human lungs under internal irradiation of 99mTc was determined. A novel technique has been developed and the possibility of using inhaled low-dose radionuclide therapy in the complex treatment of patients with COVID-19 - associated pneumonia has been studied. As a result, a significant improvement of hematological parameters in the group of patients after inhalation of 99mTc-labeled carbon ultrafine aerosol as compared to the control group is expected.

This is a single-blind, parallel-group, randomized pilot study designed to evaluate and compare the efficacy of 3 different mouthwashes containing 0.2% Chlorhexidine digluconate, 1.5% Hydroxide peroxide or Cetylpyridinium chloride in reducing Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral load in the saliva of COVID-19 positive patients at different time-points. A convenient sample of up to 40 COVID-19 positive patients diagnosed via test and/or presenting COVID-19 clinical symptoms will be identified in the inpatients and/or outpatient clinics at the Newham University Hospital and at The Royal London Hospital, Barts Health National Health Service (NHS) Trust, United Kingdom (UK). The study will consist of one visit. Unstimulated saliva samples will be collected from all COVID-19 positive patients before and at 30 minutes, 1, 2, and 3 hours after mouth rinsing (Group 1-3 ) or no rinsing (Group 4). Viral load analysis of saliva samples in the different time-points will be then assessed by Reverse Transcription quantitative PCR (RT- qPCR).

Patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatism (RIC) or autoimmune diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthritis, are regularly monitored in consultation as part of a "treat to target" strategy with rapid adaptation of treatments to the activity of their disease. according to French recommendations. They are treated with immunosuppressive drugs: disease-modifying treatments with very often methotrexate, associated with biotherapies or targeted therapies (JAK inhibitors) They can also be treated transiently or over the long term with corticosteroids. These treatments expose them to greater infectious risks, especially with regard to COVID19. The objective is on the one hand to assess the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic on general state of health of these patients and the evolution of their disease and on the other hand to prioritize the optimal care of these patients by including in the context of maintaining the pandemic reduction rules, modern telemedicine technologies.

At present, in order to cope with the global pandemic of the COVID-19 virus, governments have introduced corresponding measures, COVID-19 lockdown is one of the most important measures. However, lockdown makes the management of chronic diseases (such as type 2 diabetes) more difficult, and telemedicine may be one of the solutions. We hope to explore the effect of telemedicine on blood glucose control and other prognostic indicators of young and middle-aged obese patients with type 2 diabetes who will experience isolation control.

Preoperative antiseptic mouth rinses have been widely used as a standard protocol before routine dental treatment reduces oral microorganism counts. During dental procedures, aerosolized microorganisms contaminate the dental environment and nearby surfaces and remain suspended for 4 hours. Thus, the reduction in the number of aerosolized microorganisms by pre-procedural rinsing may reduce cross-contamination between dentists, office personnel, and patients. Recent reviews have advocated the use of preoperative rinsing to control and reduce the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. However, no clinical studies have been done yet to support the effectiveness of any pre-procedural oral rinses against SARS-CoV-2. The proposed study will mitigate the spread of COVID-19 disease in dental healthcare facilities and ensure the patients' good health and healthcare workers. The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of four commercially available mouth rinses povidone-iodine (PVP-I), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) on the salivary SARS-CoV-2 viral load at four-time points (baseline and 5-, 30-, and 60-min post rinsing) relative to two control groups (distilled water and no-rinse) in a cohort of positive COVID-19 patients.
