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.

Covid-19 (English acronym meaning coronavirus disease 2019) is an emerging infectious disease caused by a strain of coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. The current pandemic has resulted in a significant number of admissions in the emergency room (ER) due to suspicion of COVID-19 infection. Use of lung ultrasound is standard practice to diagnose acute respiratory failure in ER. Recently, typical lung ultrasonographic characteristics of COVID-19 disease has been described. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of this tool could be of interest in order to allow an early, simple and reliable triage in patients with suspected COVID-19 infection admitted in ER. In addition, the visualization of early signs in specific areas could be a predictive marker of the severity of the disease. The objective of this project will be to study the association between the signs on lung ultrasound and the result of RT-PCR in patients with suspected COVID-19 infection in the ER.

The current COVID-19 pandemic, this is especially since the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is thought to occur mainly through respiratory droplets generated by coughing and sneezing, by direct contact with contaminated surfaces and because in a large number of patients COVID-19 disease may be asymptomatic. As recommended by the CDC medical personnel should be equipped with full personal protective equipment (PPE) for AGP in contact with suspected/confirmed COVID-19 patient. Therefore, it is reasonable to search for the most effective methods of intravascular access in those conditions.

Povidone-iodine (PVP-I) is a broad-spectrum antiseptic with activity against bacteria, fungi, and viruses. It has been previously used in both intranasal preparations against Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) as well as oral preparations in in-vitro studies of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV), influenza H1N1, and rotavirus with good efficacy. This study will evaluate the efficacy of PVP-I as prophylaxis in Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19)-negative front-line health care workers, hospital patients, and community members.

The prone position during mechanical ventilation in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is able to improve oxygenation and thus reduce mortality. The objective of the study is to evaluate the ability of the prone position to increase the oxygenation of the patient with SARS-cov-2 pneumonia.
Andalusian Network for Design and Translation of Advanced Therapies
Phase I / II multicentre, randomized and controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of treatment with hyperimmune plasma obtained from convalescent antibodies of COVID-19 infection.
Andalusian Network for Design and Translation of Advanced Therapies
Phase I/II clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Allogenic Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Expanded in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia
IBSA Institut Biochimique SA
The purpose of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of progesterone for treatment of COVID-19 in hospitalized men.
Novartis
TThe purpose of this prospective, Phase 2, single center, blinded, randomized controlled study is to demonstrate as a proof of concept that early treatment with canakinumab prevents progressive heart and respiratory failure in patients with COVID-19 infection. These results will lead to and inform a Phase III randomized placebo-controlled trial.
Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
This study is a retrospective cohort trial to assess the efficacy of remdesivir in hospitalized adult patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The study is a multicenter trial which will be carried out on different sites in France. This trial is retrospective and will analyze the data collected during treatment.
University of British Columbia
The trial will be done to determine the impact of a barrier enclosure, COVID (coronavirus disease -19) barrier box on endotracheal intubation attempts, and duration. This study will be a prospective, open-label, randomized controlled trial. A total of 100 patients scheduled for elective surgery will be randomly assigned in two groups (intervention group and control group). Participating attending anesthesiologists will intubate the intervention group patients with COVID barrier box and the control group patients without the box. The anesthesiologists and the intervention group patients will be surveyed about their perception after the surgery. The result of this study will help in decision making about using COVID barrier box to minimize the viral transmission from patients to healthcare workers during the pandemic.
