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.

Viral pandemics, such as HIV and SARS-Cov-V1, have shown that they can lead to acute and / or delayed neurological complications. At the actual context of the pandemic Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), neurological manifestations seem to be confirmed since in 85% of COVID-19 patients, present neurological symptoms, including anosmia, ageusia, periorbital pain, dizziness, fatigue, even moderate headache, moderate memory and/or behavioral disorders. However, these neurological manifestations are not well studied and their radiological features are not well described. It is therefore important to assess these potential neurological complications in COVID-19 patients. To the investigator knowledge, there is no previous study in the literature describing spectral brain changes in COVID + patients. Thus, the goal of this work is to describe the radiological semiology using MRI and particularly Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic (MRS) biomarkers in the evaluation of acute and / or delayed brain damage in COVID + patients presenting a neurological manifestations that are initially related to the cranial nerves damage.

Until now there is no vaccine or reliable treatment for the COVID-19 pandemic. The fundamental mechanisms of non-invasive low-level laser in photobiomodulation (PBM) and photodynamic therapy is to stimulate the mitochondrial respiratory chain where a transient release of non-cytotoxic levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) will lead to positive modulation of the immune response. As previous studies mentioned that the most important strategy for COVID-19 management is oxygenation and faster rehabilitation of the damaged tissue, antiviral effects, and, finally, reduction or controlling the cytokine storm by reducing inflammatory agents. PBM may be used as adjuvant therapy or even an alternative therapy in all these mechanisms without side effects and drug interactions. Objectives The objective of this clinical trial is to use the photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), and photodynamic therapy as adjuvant therapy or even an alternative therapy for Covide-19. Patients and methods A randomized controlled study will be conducted on 60 patients of positive COVID 19. The patients will be divided into 3 equal groups. Group, I will receive a low-level laser (diode laser 980nm) from laser watch for 30 minutes, 20 J for 3 to 5 days, and laser acupuncture. Group 2 will be treated with photodynamic therapy by injecting the methylene blue as a photosensitizer and irradiated with laser watch (diode laser 670 nm). Group 3 will serve as a control. Evaluation methods will include laboratory investigations and CT chest.

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ibrutinib and how well it works in treating patients with COVID-19 requiring hospitalization. Ibrutinib may help improve COVID-19 symptoms by lessening the inflammatory response in the lungs, while preserving overall immune function. This may reduce the need to be on a ventilator to help with breathing.

The aim of this work is to conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of cannabidiol (CBD - 300 mg a day) in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. The specific objectives are to assess whether, in patients with mild and moderate forms of SARS-CoV-2, daily use of CBD 300 mg for fourteen days is capable of: i) decrease viral load; ii) modify inflammatory parameters, such as cytokines, measured from serum; iii) reduce clinical and emotional symptoms through daily clinical evaluation; iv) improve sleep; v) reduce hospitalization and worsen the severity of the disease; v) Monitor the possible adverse effects of CBD use in these patients.

Covid-19, a commonly severe respiratory tract infection caused by the SARS-CoV2 Coronavirus, poses an increasing threat to individual health and health care systems. The individual disease course ranges from mild to life threatening, the pandemic spread leads to a shortage of health care resources including intensive care availability. It should be the overarching goal to allocate sparse health care resources to those most at need and to simultaneously avoid unnecessary blocking of resources by clinically unjustified hospitalizations. Individuals with preexisting cardiovascular conditions are at the highest risk of health deterioration, even at younger age. Objective criteria for hospitalization are not immediately available in a outpatient settings. Hence, hospitalization and emergency medical contact is often triggered by subjectively interpreted symptoms. The goal of this project is thus to improve the availability of objective measurements in the outpatient setting by means of an innovative, smartwatch mediated telemedicine approach. To achieve this goal, the investigators will conduct a randomized clinical trial comparing a smartwatch based telemedicine intervention with standard of care. The intervention group will receive regular objective measurements of heart rate, ECG, and SpO2 and will get access to a 24/7 medical care hotline for consultation. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention group will benefit by a significant reduction in unnecessary hospitalizations and unplanned emergency medicine contacts.

COVID-19 is causing a serious viral pandemic in terms of health and social impact. To date, no treatment has yet demonstrated Strong efficacy in treating the infectious disease (COVID-19). Pulmonary administration of Interferon (IFN) type I is a therapeutic strategy with high potential,due to higher local concentrations and minimal adverse effects. Type I interferons (including IFN-α and IFN-β) are antiviral defence cytokines and also have the potential to negatively modulate IFN Type II and IL-6 dependent cytokine storm, the latter being induced in the late forms of COVID-19. In vitro, IFN-β were more effective on COVID-19 than IFN-α. In existing preliminary studies, only patients receiving IFN type I modulators have a decrease in viral carriage and a rapid reversal. The purpose of this project is to assess in hospitalized patients with oxygen for COVID 19, the clinical efficacy on oxygen requirements of the addition of inhaled Interferon type I compared to the control arm .
