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 is impacting on health systems in Brazil and worldwide. Reducing the risk of clinical deterioration and prolonged disease duration in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 may alleviate the burden caused by the pandemic. Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) has demonstrated antiapoptotic, antioxidative, and anti-inflammatory roles and has been suggested as a potential protector against organ injuries and even mediate lower mortality rates after polymicrobial sepsis in animal models. Melatonin agonists may modulate protective effects against acute lung injury and play a clinical role in individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection. The investigators proposed a clinical trial testing the effects of ramelteon 8mg in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

COVID-19 infected pregnant women is thought to have variable degrees of inflammatory response against the disease. Investigators of present study, suggested that fetuses are affected from the possible fetal inflammatory syndrome in case of maternal COVID-19. Therefore the aim of his study is to evaluate that if the cardiothymic index is affected by the maternal COVID-19 and to demonstrate any possible association of this measurement with neonatal morbidities.

The primary end-point of our prospective, observational study is to count T cells in patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 and healthy controls. In addition, the expression of T cell exhaustion marker was measured in COVID-19 cases.

There is a considerable variation in the disease behavior in terms of contracting the infection, manifesting none to a range of symptoms and severity of the infection among individuals exposed to or infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus, the causative organism of COVID-19. Although the respiratory system appears to be the primary target of this virus infection, emerging evidences suggests involvement of extra-pulmonary organs including central nervous system. We aim to compare the genetic profile of individuals with vs without COVID-19 after being exposed to infected cases. Additionally, we will assess the cognitive function in covid-19 positive cases with vs. without neurological symptoms at the time of infection and 1-month follow-up using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) questionnaire.

Health Science Center of Xi'an Jiaotong University
A randomized clinical trial designed and intended to evaluate the efficacy of Dexamethasone and Methylprednisolone as a treatment for severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) caused by coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). Our aim is to find the best option for the treatment and management of ARDS in COVID-19 patients.

The investigators decided to conduct a longitudinal study that compares the pulmonary tomographic patterns found in patients with viral pneumonia (i.e. influenza H1N1 and SARS-CoV-2) at a regional hospital. The primary aim of this study is to compare the radiological patterns found in patients with COVID-19 and influenza H1N1. The secondary aims of this study will assess the association between the radiological CT pattern and the need for invasive mechanical ventilation and mortality within the first 28 days of intensive care unit admission.

With the appearance of the new SARS-COV2 virus, additional challenges are being imposed on the medical community after the resolution of acute COVID-19 illness, resulting in specific pathophysiologic mechanisms that while acutely damage the lung parenchyma might chronically impact the cardiopulmonary system. This study aims to investigate changes after mild COVID-19 illness in echocardiographic indices at rest and stress.

Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) is widely used as a diagnostic or therapeutic procedure in intensive care units. Patients with ARDS or COVID-19 disease often undergoes to these procedures. However, intensive care patients might suffer from serious side effects such as prolonged oxygen desaturation and adverse change in lung compliance and resistance. This study aims to evaluate these changes and determine their impact on patient stability.
