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 the United Kingdom, there are currently 138,000 confirmed patients with coronavirus, causing 18,738 deaths. Whilst the disease may be mild in the majority of patients, a significant proportion of patients require intensive care therapy and a ventilator due to lung injury. In addition to lung injury/failure (acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)), around 50% of patients admitted to intensive care develop acute kidney injury (AKI) (requiring advanced support via haemofiltration) and multi-organ failure. It is unclear why patients suffering from COVID-19 develop such severe lung injury (requiring life support or ventilation) or indeed why patients develop other organ dysfunction such as kidney injury. The investigators hypothesis that this may due to an over-reaction of the immune system particularly in the lungs. This then results in the release of various mediators and biological messengers which can be pushed into the blood bloodstream (exacerbated by positive pressure generated by the ventilator). These mediators then travel, via the blood, to other organs such as the kidney where they cause inflammation and injury of cells, resulting in organ failure. The investigators would like to apply their well-established laboratory methods to further the scientific community's knowledge of this severe and deadly viral condition and we hope that this would lead to the development of medication that would treat this deadly virus.

The current project is a prospective, multicentric cohort study aiming at a multidisciplinary assessment (pulmonary, cardiometabolic, sleep and mental health) of the consequences of infection by SARS-CoV-2, 3 months after the diagnosis in order to better characterize these complications. 400 patients with a positive diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 will be included in the study 3 months after their diagnosis: They will be followed at 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years, as function of their after-effects discovered at 3 months and their evolution.

Collection and analysis of demographic, clinical, radiographic and laboratory characteristics of CoViD-19 patients to identify predictors of disease severity, mortality and treatment response, and to identify subgroup of patients that might benefit from specific therapeutic interventions

COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease 2019) is a new infectious disease caused by a virus named as SARS-CoV2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2). Although it can have a devastating effect on many organs, the respiratory tract is particularly affected. In the course of the disease, a wide clinical spectrum is observed, from flu-like illness to lung failure. Some of the patients who survived the disease continue to have problems such as shortness of breath, fatigue, decrease in walking distance, decrease in participation in daily life activities. These problems suggest that the effects on respiratory and cardiac functions continue even after the disease ends. This study was designed to demonstrate the effects and extent of COVID-19 on cardiopulmonary capacity.

Sample Size: n=570 Accrual Ceiling: n=627 Study Population: Patients age 18 to 100 years The study duration includes 51 months to recruit patients and 24 months of total follow-up time counted from the first day of COVID-19 symptoms or date of confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis. Study Design: This is a prospective, observational cohort study to evaluate the short- and long-term end-organ complications of COVID-19 and to establish a COVID-19 biobank. Participant Cohorts: 1. Individuals who had previous asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 (mild=never required supplemental oxygen during the acute phase of the infection) 2. Individuals who had previous moderate or severe COVID-19 (moderate=required supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula during the acute phase of the infection; severe=required supplemental oxygen by either high-flow nasal cannula, non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or intubation) 3. Individuals who had COVID-19 but did not have signs or symptoms related to COVID-19 lasting beyond 4 weeks from the date of COVID-19 symptom-onset or diagnosis 4. Individuals who have not had COVID-19 (i.e. individuals who tested negative for COVID-19 and who never had symptoms consistent with COVID-19)

The COVID-19 pandemic has been characterized by high morbidity and mortality, especially in certain subgroups of patients. To date, no treatment has been shown to be effective in patients with early-onset disease and mild symptoms. Experimental studies have demonstrated a potential anti-inflammatory role of Fluvoxamine, Fluoxetine, Budesonide and Spirulin Platensis in SARS-CoV-2 infections and observational studies have suggested a reduced complications in patients with COVID-19 disease.

The purpose of the study is to describe disability following hospitalization in people of working-age surviving COVID-19.

The NanoCOAT study is a multi-center, prospective, non-randomized, feasibility, observational, non-significant risk study. The NanoCOAT study will enroll a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 100 subjects in a potential for a multi-site in order to collect data and analyze physiological and biometric trends due to Covid-19.

There is an unmet need to evaluate the impact of sub-clinical/mild COVID19 disease in the outpatient setting on prevalent and incident renal injury, as this data is currently unavailable. To capture the diversity of race/ethnic risk and COVID19 related municipal shelter-in-place guidance, the investigators will enroll COVID19-negative and COVID19-positive samples balanced by race/ethnicity from 3 different states, California, Michigan, and Illinois. Study endpoints will be assayed from urine samples mailed to the study team at 2, 6, and 12 months after their date of PCR test, with no requirement for these individuals to leave their homes to participate.

The purpose of this study is to characterize microvascular reactivity on the forearm muscle using non-invasive near-infrared spectroscopy in critically ill COVID-19 patients, and to correlate its alterations with 28-day mortality in ICU COVID-19 patients.
