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.

This is a study that will attempt to validate the process for detecting SARS-CoV-2 (COVID19) on a non-FDA-approved technology using self-collected saliva as the specimen. Investigators will compare self-collected saliva samples and healthcare-worker collected nasopharyngeal samples (Nasal swabs) to see if the self-collected saliva samples are similar in terms of diagnostic accuracy. Investigators will be performing this testing at the site where patients regularly go for COVID19 testing. There will be minimal risk of harm as consenting patients will only have to provide a small amount of saliva into a tube.

The present study is aimed to investigate the treatment benefits of a combination of dietary supplements quercetin, curcumin and vitamin D3 as add-on therapy to the routine care for early mild symptoms of COVID-19 infection in outpatients setting.

Pilot study into low dose naltrexone (LDN) and NAD+ for treatment of patients with post-COVID-19 syndrome.

Recent different biomarkers of acute kidney injury (AKI) have been manufactured by pharmaceutical industry. Studies proved that Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and cystatin c are effective predictive biomarkers for early acute kidney injury in septic patients and in children after cardiopulmonary bypass. This study hypothesize that both cystatin c and Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin can predict AKI in patients with COVID-19 before elevation of serum urea and creatinine which may help early interference.

Our purpose is to conduct a 4-arm placebo-controlled clinical trial to investigate the relative clinical efficacy of 300 mg. of pure hemp-derived CBD isolate, 300 mg. of full spectrum CBD oil, 300 mg. of broad- spectrum CBD Oil, or Placebo oil among adults presenting with COVID-19 -induced stress reactions including one or more of the following: anxiety, depression, anger, substance use, or sleep disturbance.

COVID-19 outbreak is often lethal. Mortality has been associated with several cardio-vascular risk factors such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension and tobacco use. Other clinico-biological features predictive of mortality or transfer to Intensive Care Unit are also needed. Cases of myocarditis have also been reported with COVID-19. Cardio-vascular events have possibly been highly underestimated. The study proposes to systematically collect cardio-vascular data to study the incidence of myocarditis and coronaropathy events during COVID-19 infection.We will also assess predictive factors for transfer in Intensive Care Unit or death.

This study is expected to provide, for the first time, data on Cov2-SARS circulation in asymptomatic children and children with moderate respiratory symptoms in order to construct the severity pyramid of this novel pathogen. This information will be essential in the coming weeks to understand the dynamics of the transmission of this pathogen at the population level and to highlight the relevance of public health interventions, particularly with regard to the systematic closure of schools and childcare facilities.

Current data in the literature demonstrate that the immune response to CoV-2-SARS is much more complex than initially assumed. In fact, beyond the humoral response, including the existence of neutralizing CAs, the adaptive lymphocyte T-type immune response also appears to play an important role in controlling the infection and reducing the severity of the disease. At this stage, the analysis of this T response is still rudimentary and underdeveloped, but it seems crucial to be able to analyze it effectively in COVID-19 patients, which could help predict the evolution of the infection. It is also currently difficult to know the evolution of this response over time and especially after the resolution of the infection. To this end, we will analyze the T lymphocyte response (ELISPOT and QUANTIFERON) based on the secretion of IFN (Th1) and IL-4 (Th2) by CoV-2-SARS specific T cells from COVID-19 patients. We will compare the T response to the quality of the systemic and mucosal humoral response. Finally, we will evaluate in parallel two new biomarkers of the severity of COVID-19: plasma calprotectin and the presence of antibodies to type 1 IFN antibodies.

This is a substudy of NCT04333732. The goal of this sub-study is to identify and characterize biomarkers of trained immunity by measuring, in vitro, immune responses to heterologous products, especially viral associated products, in the MMR vaccinated compared placebo groups. All participants are randomly assigned to MMR or placebo injection at baseline, followed by SARS-CoV-2 specific vaccination. Blood is drawn around 60 to 90 days after the last SARS-CoV-2 specific vaccine injection.

Co-Sér: Serological Analysis and Viral Neutralization in People With a Documented COVID-19 Infection
In light of the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the investigators want to better study the immunological characteristics of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) infections in adults. The investigators invite volunteers to participate in a clinical study to better understand what happens after an infection with SARS-CoV2. By collecting and analysing blood samples of people that were infected, the investigators want to evaluate whether or not the participants had an adaptive immune response with the producting of immunoglobulin. The investigators will evaluate the quality of the antibodies and their neutralising capacity. In a selected patient group with strong antibody response, the investigators will try to reproduce them in the lab after the collection of a larger blood sample (max 72 mL) of, in case of insufficient B-cells, a leucapheresis (after consent of the patient). These antibodies can be used in clinical trials to evaluate whether the investigators can cure patients faster or prevent disease by the utilisation of these antibodies. Aside from the aforementioned information the investigators will also collect clinical data such as: demographic information, medical history, routine lab results, radiographic imaging and medication use. After the completion of the study, the samples will be stored for 30 years with consent of the participants.
