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.

Randomized controlled trial to analyse adjuvant therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) in severe Covid-19 associated coagulopathy and systemic inflammation compared to current standard of care (SOC). A total of three TPEs (d1, 3, 5) will be performed in the intervention group. Primary endpoint is the reversibility of relative ADAMTS13 deficiency (indicated by the change in ADAMTS13 / VWF:Ag ratio from day 1 to 7).

For patients admitted with COVID-19 infection, it is often difficult to predict if or when their clinical condition will deteriorate. However subtle changes in vital signs are usually present 8 to 24 hours before a life-threatening event such as respiratory failure leading to ICU admission, or unanticipated cardiac arrest. Such adverse trends in clinical observations can be missed, misinterpreted or not appreciated as urgent. New continuous and wearable 24/7 clinical vital parameter monitoring systems offer a unique possibility to identify clinical deterioration before patients condition progress beyond the point-of-no-return, where adverse events are inevitable. The primary aim of this study is to test the effect of continuous wireless vital signs monitoring with generation of real-time alerts through a purpose-built GUI, compared to standard EWS monitoring on the cumulative duration of any severely deviating vital signs

At present, in order to cope with the global pandemic of the COVID-19 virus, governments have introduced corresponding measures, COVID-19 lockdown is one of the most important measures. However, lockdown makes the management of chronic diseases (such as type 2 diabetes) more difficult, and telemedicine may be one of the solutions. We hope to explore the effect of telemedicine on blood glucose control and other prognostic indicators of young and middle-aged obese patients with type 2 diabetes who will experience isolation control.

Objective: To determine whether NIV delivered through helmet interface reduces intubation rate among patients with COVID-19 ARDS compared to face-mask NIV and HFNC. Design, setting & participants: Two-center randomized clinical trial of 360 patients with mild to moderate ARDS and confirmed COVID-19 requiring non-invasive ventilation between August 2020 to January 2021. The patients with respiratory rate (RR) more than 30/min or oxygen saturation (SpO2) less than 90% or PaO2/FiO2 ratio less than 300 despite standard oxygen therapy by face mask (

This study will compare the impact of a classical aerosol mask above low-flow nasal cannula on the arterial oxygen tension in patients with COVID-19.
Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority
The purpose of this research is to remotely monitor individuals who have tested positive for COVID-19 to learn more about progression and recovery from the disease. Individuals who test positive for COVID-19 will wear the Current Health wearable device continuously and answer a brief series of questions on Current Health tablet daily for up to 30 days. The health data will be used to develop predictive models of hospitalization risk.

The aim of this study is to explore the acceptability and feasibility of a novel medical device system for autonomously monitoring of breath and heart sounds in Covid-19 (detecting and monitoring the progression of Covid-19 pneumonitis, by evaluating sounds captured through a wearable device (Senti)). As a first-in-man study, the investigators will investigate the safety of the Senti device, the usability and acceptability of the device; and ensure technical and practical feasibility of the device in a real-world clinical setting. Healthcare resources have been stretched substantially by Covid-19. Devices which enable patients to be monitored at home and direct these precious resources to those who require them are needed more than ever. 10 patients will be recruited (the study participants) in two tranches (6 and 4) who are being discharged from A&E into the community, with Covid-19. These patients will wear the Senti device. The first tranche will use the device over a single session lasting 20 minutes only. The second tranche (which will include patients from tranche one, and which will only proceed if no adverse events are detected in tranche one), participants will wear the device at their discretion (particularly encouraged to wear overnight) over the course of 5 days. The investigators will survey the study participants to answer three key questions: What is the feasibility of the Senti data-capture device? Is this device usable in clinical practice? What are the requirements to train patients to use the device? The investigators will also consider: Does the device function technically and practically, in real-world clinical scenarios? What are the key expected and unexpected safety issues related to using the device (with a particular emphasis on whether the device is likely to cause pressure sores)? These questions will establish the feasibility of using the Senti data capture device as part of a novel medical device system for the autonomous evaluation and monitoring of bioacoustic signals for Covid-19.
Ataturk University
There is no prophylaxis for people at high risk of developing COVID-19. It is one of the first clinical studies aiming to investigate the effect of Anatolian Propolis against COVID-19. This study will test whether Anatolian propolis can be used to prevent the development of COVID-19 in people at risk of COVID-19. If Anatolian Propolis has been shown to reduce the risk of developing COVID-19 in people at high risk of infection, this could help reduce the morbidity and mortality of the COVID-19 outbreak. This study will be done in 2 centers. These centers are planned as Atatürk University Medical Faculty Emergency Medicine Clinic and Rize Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University Emergency Medicine Clinic. This work will be done entirely on a voluntary basis. The research subject will be explained to the healthcare professionals (doctor, nurse, medical secretary) working in both emergency medicine clinics and voluntary participation forms will be signed by the healthcare professionals who agree to participate in the study. Health workers who agree to participate in the study will be accepted as the study group, and healthcare professionals who do not agree to participate in the study will be accepted as the control group. The study group will be asked to take 20 drops of Propolis drop form twice a day in the morning / evening and the control group will not receive any treatment and both groups will be followed. In this process, patients diagnosed with COVID-19 will be determined.The study will cover a period of 1 month and at the end of 1 month, patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in the study and control groups will be compared. Thus, the protective properties of Anatolian propolis will be determined.
