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 Cooper vitamin D3 study is a randomized study investigating whether daily vitamin D3 supplementation can prevent respiratory tract infections, influenza-like illness and covid-19 in hospital workers.

This is a prospective observational cohort study that will aim to recruit 60 participants who have had COVID-19, were admitted to hospital, required intensive care, and/or developed AKI during their hospital stay. Potential participants will be approached either by telephone by a member of the research team or via clinics (nephrology, post-ICU follow up clinics).

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) (previously called 2019-nCOV acute respiratory disease) is caused by SARS-CoV-2, a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus of the coronavirus family. The coronaviruses are largely responsible for the common cold, the 2002 SARS outbreak in Guangdong, China, the 2012 MERS outbreak in Saudi Arabia, and the present COVID-19 outbreak that originated in Wuhan, China. Much has been reported by way of systemic injury caused by COVID-19 affecting the cardiovascular, hepatic, nervous systems. These conditions are likely the result of the virus overwhelming the immune system. For these reasons, the investigators wish to conduct this study using existing medications off-label, and over-the-counter supplements to support the immune response, prevent lasting injury, and hasten the recovery from COVID-19.

This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of ADM03820 administered as IM injections in healthy adults for the prevention of COVID-19.

Randomized, double-blind prospective trial to test the efficacy and acceptability of therapeutic, antiseptic mouth rinses to inactivate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) in saliva of COVID-19 positive patients aged 18-65 years old. All mouthrinses are commercially available and will be used according to on-label instructions. Patients will be randomized to a mouthrinse and will be asked to give a saliva sample immediately before and after a one minute mouthwash. Saliva samples will be collected from patients at 15 minute intervals thereafter up to an hour (15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes). The samples will be stored and used for real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) detection of viral SARS-CoV-2 RNA and viral infectivity assays. Patients will also complete a short-survey on the taste and experience of using the mouthwash. This study involves 480 subject participants and one, 75-90 minute visit.

This is a longitudinal study of the long-term impact of COVID-19 on the lungs. Participants will be followed over a period of up to 4 years and impacts of COVID-19 on the lungs will be measured with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using hyperpolarized xenon-129, pulmonary function tests, exercise capacity, computed tomography imaging and questionnaires.

The human immune system is enhanced by exposure to infrared radiation with the wavelength of 5 microns to 20 microns. Humans, at normal body temperature, radiate most strongly in the infrared at a wavelength of about 10 microns. Infrared energy sustains life and can be used to treat and prevent diseases, including Covid-19 infections. High temperature within the fever range obtained from infrared radiation causes the killer T-Cells to profilate. The Killer T-Cells improves ones immune system. The high temperature kills the Corona virus. In addition, multi-vitamins and minerals including high doses of Vitamin C, increase one's immune system. Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant, produces hydrogen peroxide and removes free radicals from the body. Pre-clinical trials conducted in Houston, Texas, using Vitality Therapy or the Bible Cure were successful in curing Covid-19 infections. It is therefore possible that Vitality Therapy or the Bible Cure can be used for the successful prevention and treatment of coronavirus infections.

Preliminary reports have been received from several sources that the periodic inhaling of the nebulized mist from water that has a heightened level of kinetic activity has quickly (less than 2 days) lessened the severity of symptoms in Covid-19 infected patients. On at least several occasions, a repeat PCR test performed several after inhaling a particular water-based product was negative. There are no perceived adverse effects from inhaling the water mist by using a nebulizer or humidifier. It is important, however, to validate these preliminary findings and to include the inhaling of the mist from water, which does not have an elevated level of kinetic activity. This will be by performed in a patient-blinded manner by sequentially inhaling the two types of water over consecutive 2-day periods with Covid-19 testing at the end of each of the two day periods. Participants will be randomized as to whether they are to inhale the mist from the test or the control water.

ULSC-CV-01 is a clinical trial that comprises both Phase 1 and Phase 2a, which will be conducted sequentially. This trial will evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of allogeneic Umbilical Cord Lining Stem Cells (ULSC), which are a type of umbilical cord tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), with intravenous (IV) administration in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19.
