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.

A key strategy in the treatment of COVID-19 would be to find an effective antiviral agent that would decrease the peak viral load and, consequently, the associated degree of immunopathological damage that follows this phase. The clinically approved substances considered for this study are used for treatment of other virus diseases, like HIV (atazanavir) and HCV (sofosbuvir and daclatasvir). Severe progression of COVID-19 among patients under treatment for these aforementioned viruses is empirical less common. Besides, the clinical rationale, there are pre-clinical evidence pointing out that patients with COVID-19 could benefit from treatments with atazanavir, sofosbuvir and daclatasvir.

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.

The proposed study is designed to investigate if and how pregnant women infected with Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) infection go on to develop long-term immunity. In December 2019, a group of people in Wuhan, China presented with symptoms of a pneumonia of an unknown cause that led to the discovery of a new coronavirus called COVID-19. COVID-19 has caused a global pandemic with 7,140,000 confirmed cases and 418,000 deaths as of 13th June 2020. In the United Kingdom (UK), there have been 294,000 cases and 41,662 deaths as of 13th June 2020. In humans, this infection primarily involves the upper part of the lungs, but it can also affect other organs. It causes mild symptoms in the majority of people affected but some people can have severe infections, with some even requiring critical care in hospital. During Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), a previous coronavirus epidemic, pregnant women were disproportionately affected with severe illness. Understanding how the immune system responds long-term to this infection may hold the key to developing better vaccines and efficient treatment plans. Specialised immunity develops when individuals are infected by this and other viruses. The investigators of this study propose that, in pregnancy, this specialised immunity may not behave effectively. This may affect their ability to develop long lasting immunity and make them more vulnerable to re-infection. In this study, the investigators aim to recruit patients across 6 groups including COVID-19 newly infected pregnant women, and people with differing illness severity, mild to moderate, severe/critical, no infection (controls), as well as pregnant women with influenza and those receiving influenza vaccine. The study team will compare COVID-19 in pregnancy with non-pregnant infected and with influenza infected and vaccinated pregnant women. The study team will consent patients in all of these groups to provide a series of blood samples at different time points in a 12-month period.

This protocol provides access to investigational convalescent plasma for hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Following provision of informed consent, patients will be administered around 500 mL of convalescent plasma obtained from an individual who has recovered from a documented SARS-CoV-2 infection. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma as adjunctive therapy in preventing disease progression (prevention of ICU admission) among hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Safety outcomes include serious adverse events judged to be related to convalescent plasma. Other information which will be collected includes patient demographics and clinical data which includes quick SOFA scores, ventilator-free days, ICU-free days, dialysis-free days and 28-day mortality.

- There is a knowledge gap associated with the management of patients with COVID-19 lung injury and a laboratory picture compatible with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Clinical data to date support that COVID-19 is associated with a prothrombotic state that is not simply explained by an influx of more critically ill individuals. - These patients suffer from severe respiratory failure; hypoxemia and ventilator dependence are the primary concerns; ARDS with respiratory failure is frequently the cause of death. Macroscopic and probable microvascular thromboembolic events are a major concern in this population. - When DIC is associated with COVID-19, it predicts a very poor prognosis. - This study will evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of low-dose IV bolus tenecteplase (TNK) together with anticoagulation compared with control patients on therapeutic anticoagulation alone in hospitalized adults diagnosed with COVID-19 and acute intermediate-risk PE. - Prospective, multicenter, randomized two-arm trial enrolling consecutive patients who meet enrollment criteria. - The study will generate evidence that low-dose TNK together with anticoagulation is beneficial in these patients
