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.

Based on data regarding the effect of colchicine on the modulation of immune system and decreasing cytokine release and inflammation the question arises whether colchicine, administered in a relatively low dose, could potentially have an effect on COVID-19 Polymerase chain reaction(PCR) positive patients .

To date, there is no efficient therapeutics to prevent or treat COVID-19 related pulmonary failure. Corticosteroids (CS) could be a helpful therapeutic. Retrospective reports suggested survival improvement in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). CT scan for COVID19 hospitalized patients showed sometimes unusual aspects of pneumonia, suggestive of an organizing phase of diffuse alveolar damage (DAD). We hypothesize that, in the context of alveolar aggression induced by COVID-19, CT scan could help to individualize patients with a high probability of pulmonary organizing process who could benefit from CS treatment.

A new coronavirus (COVID-19) highlighted at the end of 2019 in China is spreading across all continents. Most often at the origin of a mild infectious syndrome, associating benign symptoms (such as fever, cough, and headache) to different degrees, COVID-19 can cause serious pulmonary pathologies and sometimes death. Data on the consequences during pregnancy are limited. The first Chinese data published seem to show that the symptoms in pregnant women are the same as those of the general population. There are no cases of intrauterine maternal-fetal transmission, but cases of newborns infected early suggest that there could be vertical intrauterine, perpartum or neonatal transmission. Prematurity and cases of respiratory distress in newborns of infected mothers have been described. Subsequently, an in-depth analysis of cases in pregnant women and pregnancy issues are necessary in order to improve knowledge on the subject.

The effects of severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS-Cov-2 (Covid-19) on the myocardium and their role in the clinical course of infected patients are still unknown. Epidemiological studies report biological myocardial involvement in 10 to 25% of cases. The objective of this study is to cardiac phenotype using comprehensive cardiac imaging tools of patients infected with Covid 19 in order to explore the functional impact of the infection on the myocardium.

This trial will determine the safety and estimate efficacy of targeted corticosteroids in mechanically ventilated patients with the hyper-inflammatory sub phenotype of ARDS due to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) by implementing a Phase 2A clinical trial.

Clinical manifestations of Covid-19 are poorly characterised in HIV co-infection, which may predispose to more severe disease. Reducing hospitalisation and severe illness in this population has important individual and public health benefits. The investigators propose a pragmatic multi-centre, randomized controlled trial in South Africa to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine to prevent progression of disease and hospitalisation amongst HIV-positive people with Covid-19 not requiring hospitalisation at initial assessment.
