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.

Background: Patients with COVID-19 have a range of clinical spectrum from asymptomatic infection, mild illness, moderate infection requiring supplemental oxygen and severe infection requiring intensive care support. High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) may offer respiratory support to patients with COVID-19 complicated by acute hypoxemic respiratory failure if conventional oxygen therapy (COT) fails to maintain satisfactory oxygenation but whether these respiratory therapies would lead to airborne viral transmission is unknown. Aims: This study examines whether SARS-2 virus can be detected in small particles in the hospital isolation rooms in patients who receive a) HFNC, b) NIV via oronasal masks and c) conventional nasal cannula for respiratory failure. Method: A field test to be performed at the Prince of Wales hospital ward 12C single bed isolation room with 12 air changes/hr on patients (n=5 for each category of respiratory therapy) with confirmed COVID-19 who require treatment for respiratory failure with a) HFNC up to 60L/min, b) NIV via oronasal masks and c) conventional nasal cannula up to 5L/min of oxygen. While the patient is on respiratory support, we would position 3 stationary devices in the isolation room (one next to each side of the bed and another at the end of the bed) of the patient with confirmed COVID-19 infection, and sample the air for four hours continuously. Results & implications: If air sampling RTPCR and viral culture is positive, this would objectively confirm that HFNC and NIV require airborne precaution by healthcare workers during application.

This is a phase I/IIa trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunological profile of INO-4800 administered by intradermal (ID) injection followed by electroporation (EP) using the CELLECTRA® 2000 device in healthy adults aged 19 to 64 years in Republic of Korea. INO- 4800 contains the plasmid pGX9501, which encodes for the full length of the Spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the tolerability, safety, and immunogenicity of INO-4800 administered by ID injection followed by EP in healthy adults in the Part A and Part B. Enrollment into Part A, and Part B will proceed sequentially.
North Carolina Translational and Clinical Sciences Institute
This study will test and follow persons quarantined at home after testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 (COV) aged 18 years and older and their household members aged 1 year and older. The purpose of this research study is to understand how often COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) spreads in the household when someone who tests positive for the virus self-isolates at home. The purpose of the extension part of the study is to help us understand long-term immunity to COVID-19. We are interested in how our immune system might still protect us from COVID-19 even after antibody levels decrease or are no longer detected. We are also interested in how immunity to COVID-19 is different in kids vs. adults.

Prehospital providers encounter patients with suspected stroke frequently. Stroke and COVID-19 are related potentially putting these healthcare workers at risk of COVID-19 infection. In addition, prehospital providers need tools to help triage large vessel stroke patients to comprehensive stroke centers.

The clinical trial will evaluate the short term and extended impact on on respiration, pulmonary function and cardiovascular function in C2Rx treatment verse Standard of Care (SOC) in critically ill adults with COVID-19 infections .

There are several clinical studies that mention the benefits of treatment with low-dose radiation therapy to patients with COVID 19, so this study protocol will be started to determine if there is clinical improvement with treatment and low-dose radiation therapy. to all the lung.

Automated quantification of the pulmonary volume impaired during acute respiratory failure could be helpful to assess patient severity during COVID-19 infection or perioperative medicine, for example. This study aim at assessing the correlation between the amount of radiologic pulmonary alteration and the clinical severity in two clinical situation : 1. SARS-CoV-2 infections 2. Postoperative hypoxemic acute respiratory failure

Coldamaris lozenges are a medical device containing 10 mg carrageenan/lozenge. The goal of the study is to determine whether the iota-carrageenan content in the saliva of subjects who sucked Coldamaris® lozenges is sufficient to inhibit the replication of 4 of the most common respiratory viruses causing common cold. At least 29 subjects will be screened, in order to get 24 subjects included.

Most research on the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 disease relate to screening measures, development of vaccines and optimising treatment of hospitalised patients. It is likely that this pandemic will be ongoing for several years until a high level of immunity is reached in the population or a vaccine has been developed. Thus, there is a need of measures to help the SARS-CoV-2 infected individual at home to overcome the course of disease with less symptoms and strain. A Positive Expiratory Pressure (PEP) flute is feasible for home use and it is possible that regular use of PEP flute may prevent the progression of respiratory symptoms in non-hospitalized individuals with COVID-19 disease. The primary objective of the study is to examine the effect of PEP flute use among SARS-CoV-2 infected, non-hospitalized patients on self-reported change in COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score during 30 days of follow-up. The secondary objectives are to compare the development in hospitalization rates and use of antibiotics in the intervention group and the control group during the follow-up period.

The current outbreak of Covid-19 requires the wearing of FFP2 respiratory protective devices by healthcare personnel to limit their contamination. However, there is currently a shortage of masks in France due to insufficient national stocks while the disease is spreading. There is an urgent need to save FFP2 masks to enable healthcare personnel to continue to provide care in complete safety. Contamination of staff due to insufficient masks would have consequences by limiting access to care for infected patients and putting caregivers at potential risk of death. Caregiver protection is also intended to contain the risk of nosocomial epidemics. We propose the use of ARFC masks by Covid-19+ units. These ARFC masks provide optimal security against the risk of aerosolization of contaminated biological liquids. They are masks modified to be usable by civilians, resulting from the technology of combat masks, specially designed for use in NRBC (Nuclear, Radiological, Biological and Chemical) atmosphere.
