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.

Percutaneous cardiovascular intervention procedures (e.g. coronary angioplasty, peripheral artery angioplasty) must be performed in person, requiring the physical presence of one or more medical, nursing and technical professionals. The control of catheters and interventional materials is performed manually, with the operator positioned next to the patient. This context results in potential for reciprocal exposure to exhaled air, both for the professionals involved and for the patient, with an inherent risk of aerial contamination. It is important to note that interventional procedures are often performed on an urgent or emergency basis (e.g. myocardial infarction), without the possibility of postponement or postponement. The recent robot-assisted cardiovascular intervention makes it possible to modify this scenario by allowing the procedure to be performed effectively and safely in a position far from the patient. In an environment with high potential for contamination, mainly related to the current pandemic caused by the COVID-19 virus, may prove to be a tactic to expand hospital security. It is in this sense that the present pilot proposal is inserted, which, ultimately, aims to evaluate the potential of robotic intervention as a strategy to reduce exposure to exhaled air of patients and professionals during the intervention procedure.

The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is causing a global pandemic with high morbidity and mortality among adults and mainly the elderly. Children seem to be little or not affected by this infection. It is estimated that children could be asymptomatic or pauci-symptomatic carriers and thus be vectors of the disease. This is why measures to close schools and confine populations have been decreed in a large number of countries, including France. However, there are only a few data on the prevalence of COVID19 disease in children. The deconfinement strategy depends on data on the prevalence of the disease, especially in children. Investigators propose to evaluate the incidence of Covid-19 in preschool and elementary schools children in the city of Nice (South of France) during the pandemic period using a local prospective study of 914 children

. Coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) appeared first in China late 2019 and caused an acute respiratory disease referred to as Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV2 is considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) as pandemic and affected nations worldwide, leading to close borders and major economical struggle. The ongoing viral threat due to the lack of effective therapies and vaccination might prolonged this economical challenge and many businesses will face huge financial constraints leading to laying off labors, an increase in the unemployment rate, and major companies' bankruptcies. However, returning to normal business operations should be done with a safety focus and not be at the cost of global health and wellbeing. Immunity against COVID-19 is going to be a major determinant for a future safe work environment and will reduce the viral infection risk. Therefore, PI is suggesting that if an employee has antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 confirmed by serological testing, he or she could go back to work safely with taking the necessary precautions.

The purpose is to investigate the COVID-19 prevalence, associated morbidity and long-term cognitive deficits in consecutive patients presenting with acute neurological symptoms

The COVID-19 pandemic health crisis forces health institutions to lower their standards of protection as supplies of personal protective equipment decrease despite the safety of front-line workers worldwide . This shortage specifically affects high-quality protective masks, such as those called FFP2. As alternatives, we offer a reusable mask based on a ventilation mask combined with a breathing filter for anesthesia breathing circuits. The purpose of the study is to assess the sealing potential of this mask in the field and possibly prove a non-inferior sealing compared to standard masks type FFP2.

To date, the effects of SARS-Cov-2 (Covid-19) on the myocardium and the role it plays in the evolution towards an acute myocarditis are badly understood. The current pandemic of this emerging virus is an opportunity to assess the proportion of acute myocarditis attributable to SARS-Cov-2(Covid-19) and to assess the clinical, biological and imaging presentations, by means of a national prospective multicentre hospital registry of cases of acute myocarditis.
Oslo University Hospital
Oslo University Hospital has initiated an observational study on hospitalised patients with confirmed COVID-19, the infection caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

The purpose of the COVIDNOCHE trial (HFNO versus CPAP Helmet Evaluation in COVID-19 Pneumonia) is to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of standard care non-invasive respiratory support (helmet CPAP versus HFNO) for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure from COVID-19 pneumonia on ventilator-free days (primary outcome) and other clinical outcomes measured up to 90 days.

The main objective of this multicenter cohort study is to determine the degree of COVID19 infection immunization of a population of psychiatric patients. The secondary objective of this cohort follow-up is to: 1. Clinically characterize COVID patients who are positive for serological testing 2. Assess the socio-demographic, clinical and psychotropic determinants of a COVID diagnosis 3. Immunologically characterize COVID patients who are positive for serological testing 4. Exploring the links between susceptibility to COVID19 and erythrocytic blood groups

The purpose of this study is to develop a safe, easily scalable, and simple method to split a single ventilator for use amongst two or more patients, thus serving as a capacity bridge to save patient lives until manufacturers can produce enough ventilators.
