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 which started from a zoonotic transmission related to crowded markets was confirmed to have a high potential for transmission to close contacts on 20 January 2020 by the National Health Commission of China and it was announced as a pandemic by the WHO on 11 March 2020. There is currently no clinically proven specific antiviral agent available for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Supportive treatment, including oxygen therapy, conservation fluid management, and broad-spectrum antibiotics to cover secondary bacterial infection, remains the most important management strategy. Interestingly, sofosbuvir has recently been proposed as an antiviral for the SARS-CoV-2 based on the similarity between the replication mechanisms of the HCV and the coronaviruses. Aim of our study is to assess the safety and efficacy of of the addition of HCV treatment to the standard regimen for the treatment of patients according to MOHP protocol.

This is an open-label, randomized, multi-centre study where hospitalized subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive Isoquercetin (IQC-950AN) in addition to standard of care or standard of care only for 28 days following confirmation of a COVID-19 infection.

The Clinical trial aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the administration of the intravenous prostaglandin E1 analog in the reduction of mortality and complications of patients with COVID-19 diagnosis. Therefore the investigators propose an open randomized clinical trial in the Fundación Santa Fe de Bogota
Texas Medical Research Associates, L.L.C.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination compared to placebo in reducing severe Covid-19 disease among elderly residents of skilled nursing facilities. The investigators hypothesize that BCG vaccination can reduce severity of Covid-19 disease. Patients who are residents of participating long-term care facilities (LTCFs), with the ability to understand and cooperate with study procedures, who agree to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to receive BCG vaccination or a placebo. Participants will be followed for up to twelve months to assess severity of Covid-19 outcomes.

Background: Based on data from the 2003 SARS-COVID pandemic, other serious lung infections, and patients with respiratory distress, it is estimated that 10-30% of patients with severe SARS-COVID-2 pneumonia may present as a sequel an organized pneumonia. The treatment of this complication is not well defined. The use of oral corticosteroids is mandatory to avoid a possible evolution to pulmonary fibrosis, however, the doses to be administered and the duration of treatment are unknown as there is no study specifically aimed at solving this doubt. Many authors advocate high-dose treatment regimens for a minimum of six months, as proposed for cryptogenic organized pneumonia. However, there is a question whether in non-idiopathic cases of organized pneumonia, less intense treatment could resolve the disease. Hypothesis: The use of a less intensive prednisone regimen may be sufficient for therapeutic control in patients with post-COVID-19 organizing pneumonia, in relation to the established standard regimen Simplicity of the procedures: The objective of the NORCOVID study is to identify the optimal treatment regimen with corticosteroids in post-COVID19 patients diagnosed with NO. Specifically, the primary objective of this multicenter randomized trial is to evaluate whether treatment with a less intensive regimen of corticosteroids produces a non-inferior therapeutic effect than the established control regimen. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the effect of treatment on secondary efficacy variables and on safety. DLCO, respiratory function tests, 6MWT test, need for rescue, radiological tests, complications, mortality and the WHO ordinal scale will be evaluated.

Automated quantification of the pulmonary volume impaired during acute respiratory failure could be helpful to assess patient severity during COVID-19 infection or perioperative medicine, for example. This study aim at assessing the correlation between the amount of radiologic pulmonary alteration and the clinical severity in two clinical situation : 1. SARS-CoV-2 infections 2. Postoperative hypoxemic acute respiratory failure

A multi-centre Australian trial with four arms aims to evaluate several different immune modulating drugs for prevention and treatment of COVID-19 specifically in the cancer population. ARM 1 is evaluating the effect of interferon-alpha (vs placebo) on the incidence of COVID-19 infection in cancer patients with no COVID-19 infection or no known COVID-19 positive contacts. ARM 2 is evaluating the effect of interferon-alpha (vs placebo) on the incidence of COVID-19 infection in cancer patients with confirmed exposure to COVID-19 virus. ARM 3 is evaluating the effect of Selinexor (vs placebo) on the incidence of COVID-19 infection in cancer patients with moderate COVID-19 infection. ARM 4 is evaluating the effect of Lenzilumab (vs placebo) on the treatment of COVID-19 infection in cancer patients with severe COVID-19 infection. Participants may become eligible and transition to different arms and treatments if they become exposed to COVID-19 or are hospitalised with an active moderate/severe COVID-19 infection. It is hoped this research will provide insight into the best practice for prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in cancer patients as emerging standard of care measures are not always suitable to this especially vulnerable population.

The use of growth hormone in obese cases with COVID-19 may help them to recover earlier.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the use of inhalational heparin in patients with pulmonary compromise / pneumonia / SARS associated with COVID-19, laboratory with marked inflammation parameters, and prothrombotic state secondary to it (Fibrinogen, Ferritin and / or elevated D-Dimer) , from admission to hospitalization. The combination of inhalation heparin combined with prophylactic doses of LMWH could reduce the progression to severe forms of the disease, and consequently the need for intensive care units and mechanical ventilation.
