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.

The study is a prospective, randomized, controlled investigation designed for comparison of two groups for the reduction of respiratory distress in a CoViD-19 population, using gammaCore Sapphire (nVNS) plus standard of care (active) vs. standard of care alone (SoC), the control group. The gammaCore® (nVNS) treatments will be used acutely and prophylactically. The aims of this study are to summarize and compare the incidence of clinical events and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in patients randomized to use of gammaCore Sapphire plus standard of care vs standard of care alone in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19. Secondary objectives are demonstrate the safety of gammaCore Sapphire use in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19.
Washington University School of Medicine
In this study, patients who have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by PCR testing without severe disease will be randomized on a 2:1 basis to receive a single injection of NT-I7 or placebo. All participants will receive best supportive care in addition to study treatment. The investigators hypothesize that NT-I7 can increase absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), thus potentially improve immune response to enhance viral clearance, thereby reducing duration of symptoms, minimizing contagiousness and preventing progression of severity.

Randomized open label clinical trial carried out at study centers in Sweden, including Karolinska University Hospital, S:t Göran Hospital, Danderyd Hospital and Västmanlands Hospital. Patients with COVID-19 who are hospitalized with oxygen therapy are eligible for inclusion. Subjects are randomized to 14 days of inhalation with ciclesonide 360 µg twice daily or to standard of care. Primary outcome is duration of received supplemental oxygen therapy. Key secondary outcome is a composite outcome of death and received invasive mechanical ventilation within 30 days.

BACKGROUND Despite drastic quarantine measures, COVID-19 continues to propagate and threatens global healthcare systems by saturating their capacity with high transmissibility and the particularly protracted length of stay needed by those requiring intensive care. Indeed, once patients advance to the ICU, prognosis is poor and it is thus critical to test medications that may prevent complications and reduce viral shedding. i.e. to protect ambulatory patients and their families from complications and transmission and allow them to #StayHome. To date, no treatment has been reliably demonstrated as effective in COVID-19 patients. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), a common and well tolerated medication, has shown promise in vitro for reducing viral replication (for SARS-CoV-2 as well as other coronaviruses with pandemic potential such as SARS-CoV-1 and MERS). Since then, several small-scale hospital-based clinical studies have indicated the potential for reduced viral shedding and hospitalisation as well as favourable evolution of lung pathology. If started earlier, this treatment could prevent complications requiring hospitalisation and intensive care, which may not be available in low-income countries. Robust clinical trials are required to assess the potential of HCQ in COVID-19. OBJECTIVES This trial assesses the efficacy of early treatment with HCQ in COVID-19 outpatients to reduce the incidence and severity of complications including secondary hospitalisation, ICU admissions, lung pathology and death. Secondarily, this trial will also assess its efficacy to reduce viral transmission among household contacts during self-quarantine. The clinical data collected in this trial will also be critical in creating early prognostication models to better predict healthcare needs and have evidence-based prioritization of resource allocation, which is especially critical in low-resource settings. METHODS The trial will recruit 800 SARS-CoV-2+ patients and their household contacts at triage sites across Switzerland. Patients included are 1) at risk of poor outcome (comorbidities or >65y) and 2) well enough to self-isolate at home. These patients will be randomised 1:1 in HCQ:Placebo and given 6 days of early treatment (within 24 hours of the SARS-CoV-2 test). Intensive pragmatic multiparameter at-home follow-up (including point-of-care lung ultrasound in some sites) will continue until their outcome (resolution, or complications, such as hospitalisation, ICU admission, death). Household contacts will have before and after serological testing and social distancing knowledge and practices questionnaires to assess risk factors for infections. The household attack rate of new-onset infections can then assess the efficacy of HCQ to prevent transmission.

The primary endpoint of this study is to assess the effects of a single IV dose of mavrilimumab on the acute inflammatory response in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia
Novartis is the Marketing Authorization Holder for Jakavi outside the US.
The purpose of this Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to ruxolitinib for eligible patients diagnosed with severe/very severe COVID-19 illness. The patient's Treating Physician should follow the suggested treatment guidelines and comply with all local health authority regulations. The requesting Treating Physician submitted a request for access to drug (often referred to as Compassionate Use) to Novartis which was reviewed and approved by the medical team experienced with the drug and indication. Please refer to the latest Investigator's Brochure (IB) or approved label for overview of ruxolitinib including: non-clinical and clinical experience, risk and benefits. Novartis will continue to provide any new safety information to the Treating Physician as they emerge.
