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.

The SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection is causing a global pandemic and a major health crisis in France. Immunity is the body's ability to defend itself against infectious agents such as viruses. The progressive acquisition by a large part of the population of immunity to defend itself against the COVID-19 virus is one of the main mechanisms by which a resolution of this pandemic is hoped for. Recovery from infection and protection from the virus is likely to depend on the development of antibodies (proteins produced by the body to neutralize infectious agents) and T-cells (a type of white blood cell in the immune system) that can stop the virus from multiplying and killing it. To date, the way and speed at which the T-lymphocytes active against the virus appear are not known. The development of biological tests to detect T-cells active against the virus in the blood of infected patients is therefore necessary. In this context, we propose you to participate in a study that will study the immune system's response against the sars-CoV-2 virus during and after COVID-19 infection.

At present, the offer of tests for the serological diagnosis of CoVID-19 (detection of IgG, IgM or IgA antibodies against CoV-2 SARS) is plethoric and is based on the use of a very large number of rapid diagnostic unit tests, a few dedicated high throughput automated systems or reagents on existing open systems. The offer will continue to expand in the coming months. In order to meet the objectives mentioned by the Prime Minister, and confirmed in the HAS report of April 16, 2020 and in the opinion n°6 of the COVID-19 scientific council concerning the potential use of these serological tests at the end of the COVID-19 epidemic, the Virology laboratory wishes to validate the sensitivity and specificity of the tests it intends to use.
University of Michigan
To better understand the role of inflammation in COVID-19, we established the Michigan Medicine COVID-19 Cohort (M2C2). M2C2 is a funded and ongoing cohort which has currently enrolled over 1500 adult patients (≥18 years) with severe COVID-19 admitted at the University of Michigan. The purpose of M2C2 is to define the in-hospital course of these patients and understand the role of inflammation as a determinant of organ injury and outcomes in COVID-19.
Cytocom, Inc.
This is a randomized, single blind, study. Males and females meeting inclusion criteria who have symptoms of mild COVID-19 and in whom a positive PCR result for SARS-CoV-2 is obtained may be enrolled to the study treatment within 72 hours of the positive PCR result. Eligible patients are those considered to be at high risk for COVID-19 disease progression. This includes patients ≥ 65 years of age or with any one or more of certain medical conditions including: cancer, COPD, cardiovascular disease, immunocompromised state resulting from solid organ transplant, obesity, sickle cell disease, history of smoking, and diabetes.

Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Proof-of-Concept Study to Evaluate the Benefit of RUCONEST in Improving Neurological Symptoms in Post-SARS-CoV-2 Infection.
London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine
The trial aims to assess the impact of cheap, licenced and widely available investigational products on the natural history of SARS-CoV-2 infection in 2 groups of patients - those with mild or moderate pneumonia (Cohort 1) and those with severe pneumonia (Cohort 2), through randomisation to non-identical placebo or intervention arm.

Shin Poong Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd.
This is a multi-center, randomized, Phase 2/3 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pyronaridine-artesunate in participants with corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Pyronaridine-artesunate has been approved in Europe, Asia and Africa under brand name of Pyramax® or Artecom® as a treatment for malaria. The study will be conducted in two stages: open-label (Stage 1) and double-blind (Stage 2). Up to approximately 402 participants (20 participants in Stage 1 and 382 participants in Stage 2) are planned to be enrolled in the study and will be randomized to receive either Artecom® or matching placebo at a ratio of 1:1 in Stage 2. The dose of Artecom® will be determined by the participant's body weight, according to previously established guidelines. An independent Drug Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will be established to review the safety at regular intervals during the conduct of the trial. The DSMB will be subject to a Charter and will review after 20 participants have been recruited, and thereafter when 191 participants have been recruited. Ad-hoc DSMB meetings may be held at any time during the study if there are any major safety concerns. A final DSMB will be conducted when all participants have been recruited in the trial.

COVID-19, the coronavirus responsible for the pandemic that began at the end of 2019 in China, spreads through respiratory droplets and direct contact. The most common symptoms of the disease include fever, cough, asthenia or myalgia, wheezing and headache, and the most serious complication is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The new coronavirus has continued to spread to multiple countries and continents so much so that the epidemic was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Interest (PHEIC) by the World Health Organization (WHO) on January 30, 2020. In the first phase of emergency worldwide, characterized by high morbidity and mortality, scientific interest has been mainly directed to the study of the transmission mechanisms of the infection, diagnostic tools and therapies for ARDS, especially in elderly and co-morbid patients. Interest has rapidly spread to other categories of patients and in particular to pregnancy, on which the virus could impact in different ways, with consequences for both the mother and the fetus. A recent systematic review that included all published reports on Coronaviruses (COVID-19, SARS, and MERS) in pregnancy showed that preterm delivery is the most frequently reported adverse event in these women, and that COVID-19 is associated with an increased risk of preeclampsia and caesarean section. Nonetheless, the limited sample size, the main inclusion of cases reported for acute respiratory symptoms, the lack of information on previous pathologies potentially capable of complicating pregnancy, do not allow for the extrapolation of strong evidence on the course of infection in pregnancy. Therefore, the current status of the scientific literature does not allow for general and wide-ranging implications. THe investigators therefore believe it is particularly useful to investigate maternal and fetal outcomes in this new broader scenario, including all pregnancies associated with asymptomatic or symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection, found in any gestational period, in order to evaluate in a "real world scenario" "Actual rates of maternal-fetal and neonatal adverse events
