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.

In a 2x2 factorial design randomized controlled trial, the investigators aim to elaborate the safety and efficacy of two pharmacological regimens on outcomes of critically-ill patients with COVID-19. The first randomization entails open-label assignment to intermediate versus standard dose prophylactic anticoagulation. The investigators hypothesize that intermediate dose compared with standard prophylactic dose anticoagulation will have a superior efficacy with respect to a composite of venous thromboembolism (VTE), requirement for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), or all-cause mortality. The second randomization will be double-blind assignment of the included patients to atorvastatin 20mg daily versus matching placebo. The hypothesis is that statin therapy, compared with placebo, will reduce the composite of VTE, need for ECMO, or all-cause mortality.

The current severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is complicated by pneumonia (15 to 20% of cases) requiring hospitalization with oxygen therapy. Almost 20 to 25% of hospitalized patients require intensive care and resuscitation; half die. The main cause of death is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, some deaths have been linked to pulmonary embolism (PE). Recognition of PE is important because there is specific treatment to limit its own mortality. The identification of biological parameters of hemostasis predictive of thromboembolic disease is crucial in these patients. To evaluate the frequency of PE in the patients having to be hospitalized is to practice of a systematic thoracic angiography scanner in the patients having no contra-indication for its realization, as well as during hospitalization in patients deteriorating without any other obvious cause. The thromboembolic events and disturbances of the coagulation system described in patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonitis suggest that this viral infection is associated with an increase in the activation of coagulation contributing to the occurrence of thrombosis and especially from PE.

Since the emergence of the new strain of betacoronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and its important clinical repercussions, it has been described that patients with its associated pneumonia (COVID-19) have high rates of thrombotic events, including reduction in the dialyzers patency when undergoing renal replacement therapy. Several strategies for preventing the early loss of dialysers are described, and regional anticoagulation based on citrate is the preferred modality for preventing this complication. On the other hand, in patients with SARS-CoV-2 there are already descriptions of endothelial inflammation and activation of the coagulation cascade, including studies demonstrating the benefit of heparinization of these patients. Thus, this study aims to compare two different anticoagulation strategies in patients infected with COVID-19 with continued venovenous hemodialysis (CVVHD). From the indication of CVVHD, patients will be screened according to eligibility criteria and, if they fit these parameters, they will be randomized into two groups: Group A - Standard regional anticoagulation based on Citrate associated with infusion of low doses of unfractionated heparin 10ui/kg/hour and Group B - Standard regional anticoagulation based on Citrate only. Patients will be randomized in blocks and followed for 72 hours. The primary endpoint is dialyzer patency at the end of 72 hours of clinical follow-up. Secondary objectives will be mortality, bleeding rate, drop in hematimetric indices, urea sieving, filter time in hours, down time of therapy, system and dialyser pressures (PBE and PTM). All patients will undergo a standard procedure with a prescribed dose of 30mL/Kg/H, blood flow of 150mL/minute and polysulfone dialyzer.

The pressure on care and the demand for critical decision-making generated by the current SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic, together with the situation of extreme social alarm and the adverse conditions in which care work must be promoted at this time, draw an extreme scenario in which action is urgently needed to alleviate emotional overload, acute stress reactions and other affective pathologies or psychosomatic reactions that may eventually lead to post-traumatic stress situations. This eventuality is being observed massively among professionals from different groups and levels of responsibility. In the case of healthcare personnel, it should be added that the care of non-COVID19 patients (of all pathologies and conditions) is clearly compromised and it is up to the professionals as a whole to make critical decisions and exercise a professional practice that is radically different from what has usually been done, which may require the application of undesirable triage criteria that are difficult for everyone to assume. Healthcare professionals and other essential personnel for healthcare and social-healthcare work (including personnel from external companies) are being subjected to emotional tensions and extraordinary, high-intensity work demands. Without professionals who feel supported and with moral strength, care will be even more compromised. The current scenario makes us think of many critical situations that are occurring as a result of the overload experienced. It is essential to act in order to counteract the devastating effect of this health crisis on health professionals and those who support them in their care work.
