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.

Part 1 of this trial enrolled 30 patients to receive Auxora (formerly CM4620) in a 2:1 randomized, open label trial of patients with severe and critical COVID-19 pneumonia. Part 2 will consist of a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled (RCT) study that will evaluate efficacy, safety, and the pharmacokinetic profile of Auxora in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. The number of patients with an imputed PaO2/FiO2 >200 randomized into the study will be capped at 26. 320 patients with a PaO2/FiO2 ≤200 will be enrolled. Patients with an estimated PaO2/FiO2 of 75-200 will be stratified to ensure balanced randomization between the Auxora and placebo arms. Subgroup analyses will be performed to explore how time to recovery is influenced by baseline variables and to evaluate the treatment effect at different levels of each of these variables. The dose of Auxora will be 2.0 mg/kg (1.25 mL/kg) administered at 0 hour, and then 1.6 mg/kg (1 mL/kg) at 24 hours and 1.6 mg/kg (1 mL/kg) at 48 hours from the SFISD. The dose of placebo will be 1.25 mL/kg administered at 0 hour and then 1 mL/kg at 24 hours and 1 mL/kg at 48 hours from the SFISD. Remdesivir, corticosteroids and convalescent plasma will be allowed. The infusion of Auxora will start within 12 hours from the time the patient or LAR provides informed consent. Efficacy analyses will be presented by treatment group (Auxora vs Placebo) based on the Efficacy Analysis Set of the imputed PaO2/FiO2 ≤200 subgroup, except where it is specified otherwise. The statistical analysis approach will be designed to assess the significance of the primary and first secondary endpoint using the Benjamini and Hochberg method to control the overall trial level alpha level.

The Post discharge after surgery Virtual Care with Remote Automated Monitoring technology (PVC-RAM) Trial is a multicentre, parallel group, superiority, randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of virtual care with remote automated monitoring (RAM) technology compared to standard care on days alive at home during the 30-day follow-up after randomization, in adults who have undergone semi-urgent (e.g., oncology), urgent (e.g., hip fracture), or emergency (e.g., ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm) surgery. It will also determine, during the first 30 days, the effect of virtual care with RAM technology on several secondary outcomes, including: 1. hospital re-admission; 2. emergency department visit; 3. urgent-care centre visit; 4. acute-hospital care (i.e., a composite of hospital re-admission and emergency department or urgent-care centre visit) 5. brief acute-hospital care (i.e., acute-hospital care that lasts

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic affects millions of humans worldwide and has led to thousands of acute medical hospitalizations. There is evidence that hospitalized cases often suffer from an important infection-related coagulopathy and from elevated risks of thrombosis. Anticoagulants may have positive effects here, to reduce the burden of thrombotic disease and the hyperactivity of coagulation, and may also hold beneficial anti-inflammatory effects against sepsis and the development of ARDS. The investigators hypothesize that high-dose anticoagulants, compared with low-dose anticoagulants, lower the risk of venous and arterial thrombosis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and mortality. This open-label controlled trial will randomize hospitalized adults with severe COVID-19 infection to therapeutic anticoagulation vs. thromboprophylaxis during the hospital stay.

In December 2019, new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) erupted in Wuhan (Hubei, China) and quickly spread from a single city to the entire country. It did not take long for this epidemic to spread to the world. After that, World Health Organization declared this epidemic disease as a pandemic. As of now, the number of coronavirus deaths increased to 108,281 worldwide. Total number of cases approached 1,800,000 according to the latest information. While the number of healed patients was highest in China, 77,525 people with COVID-19 recovered. COVID-19 is a highly contagious respiratory infectious disease that can cause respiratory, physical and psychological dysfunction in patients. Respiratory rehabilitation reduces the patient's symptoms of dyspnea, relieves anxiety and depression, reduces the patient's need to apply to the hospital, increases functional capacity and improves the patient's quality of life. Respiratory rehabilitation, according to the feedback from China, is very important for patients in the clinical treatment and recovery process after treatment. Rehabilitation of people with mild disease after discharge is mainly based on improving physical fitness and psychological adaptation. It is also aimed to gradually restore the individual's ability to the activity before the disease and return to the community as soon as possible. Individuals with COVID-19 who have respiratory and / or limb dysfunction and chronic disease after discharge should receive respiratory rehabilitation therapy. According to the current findings of the patients discharged from severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and the clinical experience of patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) patients who recovered after discharge, COVID-19 patients may have physical fitness, dyspnea after activity, and muscle atrophy. (Including respiratory muscles and trunk muscles) It is recommended to use respiratory videos and booklets as the main method for respiratory rehabilitation in isolated patients at home. Telerehabilitation method is also a different recommendation option for rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of exercises performed by telerehabilitation in patients diagnosed with COVID-19 followed at home. It is aimed to use an innovative model based on the digitally supported, home-based exercise program.

The study aims to determine the safety and efficacy of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) containing nasal sprays as compared to isotonic saline nasal sprays in COVID-19 positive patients. The primary outcome measure is SARS-CoV-2 viral titers in the nasal cavity and nasopharynx. In vitro studies have shown PVP-I to be highly virucidal against the viruses which cause SARS and MERS. Additionally, clinical studies have shown PVP-I saline sprays to be well tolerated in human subjects. PVP-I oral rinses and sprays have been trialed as methods to reduce the incidence and symptoms of viruses which cause the "common cold."
