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 purpose of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of progesterone for treatment of COVID-19 in hospitalized men.
University Grenoble Alps
Describe the main clinical features impacting the food intake, and therefore the nutritional status of a population infected by a coronavirus.
Novartis
TThe purpose of this prospective, Phase 2, single center, blinded, randomized controlled study is to demonstrate as a proof of concept that early treatment with canakinumab prevents progressive heart and respiratory failure in patients with COVID-19 infection. These results will lead to and inform a Phase III randomized placebo-controlled trial.

COVID-19 has a high infection rate and mortality, and serious complications such as heart injury cannot be ignored. Cardiac dysfunction occurred in COVID-19 patients, but the law and mechanism of cardiac dysfunction remains unclear. The occurrence of progressive inflammatory factor storm and coagulation dysfunction in severe and fatal cases of NCP points out a new direction for reducing the incidence of severe and critically ill patients, shortening the length of duration in severe and critically ill patients and reducing the incidence of complications of cardiovascular diseases. Aspirin has the triple effects of inhibiting virus replication, anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory, but it has not received attention in the treatment and prevention of NCP. Although Aspirin is not commonly used in the guidelines for the treatment of NCP, it was widely used in the treatment and prevention of a variety of human diseases after its first synthesis in 1898. Subsequently, aspirin has been confirmed to have antiviral effect on multiple levels. Moreover, one study has confirmed that aspirin can inhibit virus replication by inhibiting prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in macrophages and upregulation of type I interferon production. Subsequently, pharmacological studies have found that aspirin as an anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug by inhibiting cox-oxidase (COX). Under certain conditions, the platelet is the main contributor of innate immune response, studies have found that in the lung injury model in dynamic neutrophil and platelet aggregation. In summary, the early use of aspirin in covid-19 patients, which has the effects of inhibiting virus replication, anti-platelet aggregation, anti-inflammatory and anti-lung injury, is expected to reduce the incidence of severe and critical patients, shorten the length of hospital duration and reduce the incidence of cardiovascular complications.
Queen Mary University of London
This study will describe and explore the recovery process of patients undergoing cardiac surgery during the covid-19 pandemic. This will include mortality, morbidity, health-related quality of life, event-specific distress and depression.
Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
This study is a retrospective cohort trial to assess the efficacy of remdesivir in hospitalized adult patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The study is a multicenter trial which will be carried out on different sites in France. This trial is retrospective and will analyze the data collected during treatment.
University of British Columbia
The trial will be done to determine the impact of a barrier enclosure, COVID (coronavirus disease -19) barrier box on endotracheal intubation attempts, and duration. This study will be a prospective, open-label, randomized controlled trial. A total of 100 patients scheduled for elective surgery will be randomly assigned in two groups (intervention group and control group). Participating attending anesthesiologists will intubate the intervention group patients with COVID barrier box and the control group patients without the box. The anesthesiologists and the intervention group patients will be surveyed about their perception after the surgery. The result of this study will help in decision making about using COVID barrier box to minimize the viral transmission from patients to healthcare workers during the pandemic.

In this study (i) the host genome to identify susceptibility regions of infection, inflammation, and host defense, (ii) host response to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Corona-Virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, and (iii) viral sequence composition to define viral sequences which may be correlated with disease severity in addition to the metagenome of the throat swab will be analysed .
NYU Langone Health
Cardiometabolic disease may confer increased risk of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients by activation of the aldose reductase pathway, a trigger of the inflammatory cascade. The study team hypothesizes that aldose reductase inhibition with AT-001 (caficrestat) might represent a novel therapeutic approach to reduce inflammation and risk of adverse outcomes in diabetic patients with COVID-19. An open-label pilot study to assess safety, tolerability and efficacy of AT-001 in hospitalized COVID-19 patients with history of diabetes mellitus and heart disease will be conducted. Eligible participants will be treated with AT-001 1500 mg twice daily for up to 14 days. Safety, tolerability, survival and length of hospital stay data were compared with matched controls from a contemporaneous registry of COVID-19 patients.
Pfizer
In this study we propose to treat 560 patients with ramipril or placebo for 14 days. After an initial evaluation for COVID-19 status, medical history, and symptom assessment, patients will receive either 2.5 mg/day of ramipril or placebo. Patients' symptoms and study endpoints will be monitored at regular intervals. After 14 days, patients will undergo a laboratory assessment and an end-of-treatment follow-up visit at day 28. The primary endpoints of successful therapy will be improved survival, reductions in ICU admissions, and/or reductions in use of mechanical ventilator support.
