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.

This study will evaluate anti-malarial/anti-infective single-agent and in combination for patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection. The first combination to be evaluated is atovaquone and azithromycin.

On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization declared SARS-CoV-2 (commonly called COVID-19) a global pandemic. As in any pandemic, maintaining the health and safety of the healthcare workforce is of great importance as health care workers (HCW) remain a critical line of defence against the spread of COVID-19 and play a vital role in the recovery of those already infected. Frontline HCW, such as those in the emergency department (ED), are at high risk of contracting COVID-19 due to their close proximity to patients who may have the virus. The impact of frontline HCW becoming ill and thus unable to go to work is equally high, and of grave risk to the function of the healthcare system and the ability to minimize the impact of the current pandemic. This study aims to evaluate whether hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), a well-tolerated drug typically used in the prevention of malaria transmission and rheumatic disease, taken before and during exposure to patients with COVID-19, is effective at reducing COVID-19 infections among ED health care workers.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether the study drug tocilizumab is an effective treatment for COVID-19 infection.

This is a PET/CT study using the 18F-αvβ6-binding-peptide.The goal of this study is to evaluate this peptide in patients after infection with SARS CoV2.

This is a multi-arm, phase II trial for rapid efficacy and toxicity assessment of multiple therapies immediately after COVID19 positive testing in high-risk individuals. Therapies include stand-alone or combination treatment with hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, ivermectin, or camostat mesilate, artemesia annua. The hypothesis of this study is that the addition of agents that inhibit viral entry or replication of SARS-CoV-2 virus replication in will be devoid of additional moderate to severe toxicities, will prevent clinical deterioration, and will improve viral clearance in high risk individuals.

This is an interventional, pilot, multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 2 study, enrolling patients with COVID-19 disease. One-month rate of entering the critical stage (either a. Respiratory failure occurs and requires mechanical ventilation; b. Patients combined with other organ failure need ICU monitoring and treatment; c. Death) is the primary endpoint.
Karolinska Institutet
COVID-19 may cause severe pneumonitis that require ventilatory support in some patients, the ICU mortality is as high as 62%. Hospitals do not have enough ICU beds to handle the demand and to date there is no effective cure. We explore a treatment administered in a randomized clinical trial that could prevent ICU admission and reduce mortality. The overall hypothesis to be evaluated is that HBO reduce mortality, increase hypoxia tolerance and prevent organ failure in patients with COVID19 pneumonitis by attenuating the inflammatory response.

Since December 2019, the emergence of a new coronavirus named SARS-Cov-2 in the city of Wuhan in China has been responsible for a major epidemic of respiratory infections, including severe pneumonia. Within weeks, COVID-19 became a pandemic. In the absence of specific antiviral treatment, a special attention should be given to prevention. Personal protection equipments may be insufficiently protective, including in healthcare workers, a significant proportion of whom (around 4%) having been infected in the outbreaks described in China and more recently in Italy. Infection in healthcare workers could result from the contact with COVID-19 people in community or with infected colleagues or patients. As it will take at least a year before vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 becomes available, chemoprophylaxis is an option that should be considered in this setting where prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Health Care Workers. The COVIDAXIS trial evaluates a chemoprophylaxis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Health Care Workers. This trial is divided into two distinct studies that could start independently each with its own randomization process: COVIDAXIS 1 will study Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) versus placebo; COVIDAXIS 2 will study Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) versus placebo. Upon randomization healthcare workers (HCWs) involved in the management of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 cases will be assigned to one of the following 2 treatment groups:
