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 aims to see if participant deterioration due to suspected coronavirus in a designated location (e.g. hotel) can be identified sooner by wearing the sensor. If sick patients can be identified early, participants are more likely to have better outcomes; the study believes that the sensor can help us do this. The sensor measures heart rate, respiratory rate and temperature every 2 minutes and this can be reviewed by the clinical team looking after the participants.

We hypothesized: During the COVID-19 pandemic, the sleep quality of pregnant women decreases. During the COVID-19 epidemic, the stress level of pregnant women increases. During the COVID-19 epidemic, the level of physical activity of pregnant women decreases. Aims: The aim of the study is to determine the sleep quality, stress level and physical activity level of pregnant women who maintain the home quarantine during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A pneumonia of unknown cause detected in Wuhan, China was first reported to the WHO Country Office in China on 31 December 2019. The outbreak was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020. The spread and severity of the disease is variable from one country to another. Our team as well as many reports suggested that in some countries a " Flu like illness but much worse" was described in October, November and early in December before the WHO announcement. Was it COVID-19?

The aim of the study is to demonstrate overactivation of Renin Angiotensine System (RAS) in positives COVID-19 patient, especially in those with the most serious clinical forms where the mortality of patients in intensive care is on average 50%. We are expecting two groups: a group of 25 positive COVID 19 patients in intensive care and a group of 25 positive COVID 19 hospitalized patients in conventional hospitalisation. We will measure RAS, serum potassium and collect data on the treatment of these patients (especially antihypertensive therapy) one week apart (at the patient'entry into hospital and 7 days later). This is a preliminary study that could possibly allow the start of a therapeutic trial in order to test the effectiveness of RAS blocker treatments in this condition.

Coronavirus disease 2019 or COVID-19 is a highly contagious infectious disease. Symptoms of the disease are non-specific (fever, cough, dyspnea and fatigue), common with many seasonal viruses, which complicates the diagnosis. For mild forms, which represent the vast majority of cases, hospitalization is not necessary and treatment is symptomatic. However in more severe cases, hospitalization is required and sometimes even admission to an intensive care unit. Several diagnostic tests are already available, but they require, in all cases, the intervention of qualified health personnel to carry out the sample, which includes a risk of contagion and an expensive and time-consuming laboratory analysis and reagents. These tests are therefore not very suitable for massive screenings. We want to evaluate the performance of a detection test performed on a salivary sample in the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2. This test will be non-invasive, performed without any analytical device and will restore its qualitative result "infected versus non-infected" in less than 1 hour (30min objective).

This is an open-label trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunological profile of INO-4800 administered by intradermal (ID) injection followed by electroporation (EP) using CELLECTRA® 2000 device in healthy adult volunteers.

There are many scales for screening or assessing the impact of a disease. These scales are generally used to diagnose or assess the severity of a disease and are carried out at the request of a physician by the patient. Conversational agents could make it possible to administer these questionnaires remotely, analyse them and use the results on a large scale, without prior medical intervention. The main objective of this study is to quantify and qualify the distress of a large population in times of pandemic crisis.

Magnetic Expansion Control (MAGEC) growth rods are used in the surgical treatment of children with scoliosis; the primary constituent metal alloy in these is titanium. Since June 2019, the manufacturer has released two Urgent Field Safety Notices (FSN) relating to known issues with the function of the rods that increase the risk of early failure and unplanned revisions. The UK MHRA has issued two similar Medical Device Alerts (MDA) with the most recent MDA issued on 1st April 2020, stating that (1) MAGEC rods must not be implanted in the UK until further notice and (2) all patients already implanted with this device should be followed up as soon as is possible. At the time of writing, hospitals across the world are facing incredible challenges in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to this, virtually all planned clinic visits for MAGEC rod patients and X-ray appointments have been postponed to help reduce the risk of the virus spreading. Recent retrieval studies have shown that mechanical wear and corrosion of these rods is common, with a risk that the debris generated is released into surrounding tissue. This wear and corrosion is thought to be the primary cause of implant failures and the underlying implant factors leading to the issuing of FSNs and MDAs. Whilst titanium is known to be highly biocompatible, the baseline and toxic levels of this alloy in biological fluids are poorly understood. Additionally, a better understanding of blood titanium levels in patients with MAGEC rods may enable this to become a biomarker of wear and corrosion of the rods. This may help surgeons identify earlier those patients who may develop implant related problems. Furthermore, in the current COVID-19 environment, a blood test to measure titanium levels may be one of the most suitable ways in which to continue patient monitoring (and identify those at greatest risk of implant related issues), in the absence of regular clinic visits. Previous work from the RNOH involved a similar study investigating patients with titanium hip implants.

Documentation of all patients undergoing inpatient treatment for SARS-CoV-2 infection with regard to clinical status at admission, medical history, inpatient treatment and course of disease. The aim is to create a risk stratification of the infection on the basis of clinical data as well as therapy and disease progression of the patients. This may also contribute to a better planning of resources.
