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.

To evaluate and compare nebulized platelet lysate to placebo control of saline administered via handheld nebulizer 1x daily for eight weeks to determine effect on lung function in patients with post-COVID-19 ARDS syndrome.
Baylx Inc.
This is a phase 1/2a study including 2 parts, phase 1 and phase 2a. The phase 1 part is an open-label, single-arm, dose-escalating study to evaluate the safety and explore the dose limiting toxicity and maximum tolerated dose of a human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cell product (BX-U001) in severe COVID-19 pneumonia patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Qualified subjects after the screening will be divided into low, medium, or high dose groups to receive a single intravenous infusion of BX-U001 at the dose of 0.5×10^6, 1.0×10^6, or 1.5×10^6 cells/kg of body weight, respectively. The Phase 2a part is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial examining the safety and biological effects of BX-U001 at the appropriate dose selected from phase 1 for severe COVID-19 pneumonia patients with the same inclusion/exclusion criteria as the phase 1 part.

Currently, the sequelae and short-term medical and psychological impact of the sars-cov-2 infection ("CoVID-19") remain poorly described. The clinical and functional sequelae that may persist after acute sars-cov-2 ("CoVID-19") infection are essential to explore, in order to ensure the best possible follow-up of patients after discharge from hospital.
Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Respiratorias
This study will explore whether a daily supplement of glycine, a substance that has antiinflammatory, cytoprotective, and endothelium-protecting effects, can improve mortality, as well as clinical and biochemical parameters, in patients with severe COVID-19 who initiate mechanical ventilatory support.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a dramatic effect in public health worldwide. In Brazil, there have been more than 2 million confirmed cases and over 75,000 deaths since February 26, 2020. Based on reports of a hyperinflammatory state associated with COVID-19, the use of immunosuppressive drugs may be efficacious in the treatment of this disease. JAK inhibitors have been shown to harness inflammation in a number of different pathologic conditions. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of JAK inhibitor ruxolitinib in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19.
Bristol-Myers Squibb
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous abatacept administered to hospitalized COVID-19 participants with respiratory compromise.
State University of New York at Buffalo
This study is a pilot randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of melatonin in adult outpatients suspected to be afflicted with COVID-19.
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of V590 versus placebo and to assess the immunogenicity of V590 on Day 28. The primary hypothesis is that at least one well-tolerated dose of V590 increases the geometric mean titers (GMTs) of anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike serum neutralizing antibody, as measured by plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT), compared to placebo.

As the global and pandemic spread of the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19) continues, many knowledge gaps remain with regard to the epidemiology and transmission of infection, as well as the normal immunological responses after viral exposure. Cincinnati had its first confirmed case of COVID-19 on March 14, 2020, and despite extensive shelter-in-place and social distancing efforts, community spread continues at over 150-200 new cases per week. As new residents and fellows arrive in July 2020 to Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC), many of whom come from metropolitan areas across the country, it is imperative that investigators determine the current prevalence of infection, measure the cumulative incidence of infection over the next 12-24 months, investigate the normal antibody patterns after infection, and help elucidate what constitutes a protective immunological response. The investigators have a unique but time-limited opportunity to optimally track the epidemiology and natural history of SARS-CoV-2 infection among trainees at CCHMC, including risk factors for transmission and immunological recovery. SCREEN will investigate epidemiological and immunological features of SARS-CoV-2 virus infection within the cohort of CCHMC residents and fellows who have patient contact. By collecting and analyzing weekly serial samples for SARS-CoV-2 (nasal swab for virus by PCR) and monthly serological exposure (serum antibodies by ELISA), the investigators will determine the prevalence and cumulative incidence of infection by SARS-CoV-2; the investigators will also document the antibody responses over time and identify cases of apparent viral recrudescence or re-infection.
