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 investigators are investigating the tolerability of Heparin Sodium (porcine) administered topically via a nasal spray. This agent is being investigated as a potential prophylactic treatment to prevent infection by SARS(severe acute respiratory syndrome)-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19. Heparin Sodium (porcine) is an FDA-approved anticoagulant drug administered by injection. Recent work from multiple groups have found that heparin can prevent the infection of cells by SARS-CoV-2, indicating a possible use as a topical anti-viral. Numerous studies in both rodent models and humans have shown that heparin administered via a pulmonary or intranasal route enters the blood stream in negligible amounts, suggesting intranasal administration of heparin should be safe even at very large doses. Data from mouse models indicate that repeated daily nasal administration of heparin had no adverse effects in mice over a two week period (including weight loss, nose bleeds, loss of sense of smell, nasal discharge, or decreased blood clotting time). However, no data of repeated nasal administration of heparin in humans is available. The investigators will test nasal administration of FDA-approved heparin sodium (porcine), originally formulated for injection. The formulations the investigators will be testing consist of heparin, sodium chloride, and 1% benzyl alcohol as a preservative bottled in a nasal sprayer dispensing 0.1 mL(millilitres) per spray. The investigation is planned in two phases. A single-dose phase will test the acute tolerability of the drug. In this phase, subjects will be administered 0.1 mL of Heparin Sodium in each nostril formulated at one of two doses: Day 1 will test a formulation of 5000 U(units)/mL, and Day 2 will test a formulation of 10000 U(units) /mL. After each dose, subjects will be tested for systemic exposure via blood aPTT tests and platelet count, as well as for local topical toxicity via examination for epistaxis and anosmia, along with any other adverse events. In the chronic phase, subjects will be administered the highest dose that was tolerated in the acute phase daily for fourteen days. Subjects will be tested for aPTT and platelet count, as well as epistaxis, anosmia and any other adverse events.

Parallel group, Wait-list design, with treatment delayed for 3 months. Participants will be randomized on a 1:1 ratio with 500 participants per group in Australia. Group 1: Wait-list control. One capsule OM85 (7.0 mg) will be given daily for 3 months, commencing in Month 3, with 3 months follow-up off treatment. Group 2: Initial treatment. One capsule OM85 (7.0 mg) will be given daily for 3 months, commencing on day 0, with 3 months follow-up off treatment.

COVID-19, spreading rapidly all over the world, causes serious morbidity and mortality. In severe COVID-19 infections, after pulmonary inflammation, cardiovascular organ failure, cytokine storm, hemophagocytosis, septic shock, develops due to uncontrolled hypoxia, and isolated organ failure turns into multi-organ failure. It is noteworthy that it causes lymphopenia in patients. In studies conducted, the effects of Covid-19 on the immune system were evaluated with limited parameters. In addition, no study evaluating the effect of this disease on the immune system has been published in our country.

A phase 2, placebo-controlled study of the safety and efficacy of STI-5656 (Abivertinib Maleate) in subjects hospitalized due to COVID-19
Instituto de Cardiología de Corrientes
It is a single-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study carried out by the Ministry of Public Health of the Province of Corrientes, Argentina, in coordination with the Corrientes Institute of Cardiology "Juana F. Cabral". Patients who meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria are randomized via the web system to receive placebo or ivermectin. The need for hospitalization in patients with COVID-19 is assessed as the primary end point. As secondary end points are evaluated: time to hospitalization (in days); use of invasive mechanical ventilation; time to invasive mechanical ventilation (in days); dialysis; all-cause mortality; negative of the swab at 3 ± 1 days and 12 ± 2 days after entering the study and ivermectin safety. Intermediate internal analyzes of study objectives and serious adverse events will be performed, including 125; 250 and 375 patients in order to assess the possible need for early termination of the study. For these intermediate internal analyzes, the Haybittle-Peto rule will be followed, therefore a value of p
