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.

Since Dec 2019, over 70000 novel coronavirus infection pneumonia (NCIP) patients were confirmed. 2019 novel coronavirus (2019 nCoV) is a RNA virus, which spread mainly from person-to-person contact. Most of the symptoms are non-specific, including fever, fatigue, dry cough. Sever NCIP patients may have shortness of breath and dyspnea, and progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). The mortality is reported to be around 2.3%. Thus, early detection and early treatment is very important to the improvement of NCIP patients' prognosis. At present, NCIP RNA detection of pharyngeal swab specimen by RT-PCR is recommended. However, due to the universal susceptibility to 2019 nCoV in general population and limited number of NCIP RNA detection kits available, to identify an efficient screening strategy is urgently needed. This study aim to develop and validate the diagnostic accuracy and screening efficiency of a new NCIP screening strategy, which can benefit the disease prevention and control.

In late December 2019, several local health facilities reported clusters of patients with pneumonia of unknown cause that were epidemiologically linked to a seafood and wet animal wholesale market in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. It is now confirmed that the etiology of this outbreak is a novel coronavirus, namely, 2019-nCoV. Of critical importance is rapid and simple diagnostic method to be used in clinical settings to timely inform and refine strategies that can prevent, control, and stop the spread of 2019-nCoV. Recombinase aided amplification (RAA) assay is a novel isothermal nucleic acid amplification technique in recent years, which has a variety of the advantages including high specificity and sensitivity, rapid detection (30 min), low cost, low equipment requirements and simple operation. The has successfully detected a variety of pathogens using this technique. To develop a RAA assay for 2019-nCoV with the advantages of high speed, simple operation and low cost, and overcomes the shortcomings of the existing molecular detection methods. The investigators established a real time reverse-transcription RAA (RT-RAA) assay for detection of 2019-nCoV. This assay was performed at 42°C within 30min using a portable real-time fluorescence detector, Recombinant plasmids containing conserved ORF1ab genes was used to analyze the specificity and sensitivity. Clinical specimens from patients who were suspected of being infected with 2019-nCoV were used to evaluate the performance of the assay. In parallel, The investigators also used the commercial RT-qPCR assay kit for 2019-nCoV as a reference.
University of Milan
Use of rapid serological tests to assess the vulnerability to SARS-CoV-2 infection of subjects aged 4-16 years old and cohabiting with at least one family member who tested positive to SARS-CoV-2
Interregionale Blutspende SRK Bern
The investigators aim to determine the immune status of the employees of the cantonal police of Bern against SARS-CoV-2 over a period of 1 year, and to investigate the risk profile of the study participants and their risk of SARS-CoV-2 exposure in their working and private environments, as well as to evaluate the use of personal protective equipment at potential exposure instances.
University of Erlangen-Nürnberg Medical School
SARS-CoV-2 (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2) is a new coronavirus and identified causative agent of COVID-19 disease. They predominantly cause mild colds but can sometimes cause severe pneumonia. The long-term consequences are still largely unexplained and misunderstood, especially in children and adolescents. The aim of this study is to assess the frequency of pulmonary skeletal changes in pediatric and adolescent patients using low-field magnetic resonance imaging (LF-MRI) in the setting of proven past SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Nazarbayev University Medical Center
The purpose of the program. To determine the clinical, functional, immunological, and genetic factors affecting the severity of the course of acute coronavirus infection COVID-19 and PostCovid syndrome, in order to develop management tactics for such patients to reduce the risk of complications and disability.
Anavasi Diagnostics
Study will assess sensitivity and specificity of AnavasiDx POC PCR device for detection of Covid-19 in patients presenting for testing a clinical sites.

COVID-19 is currently the leading public health problem, associated with a high risk of complications and death in risk groups of patients. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease with a prevalence of 30% in the Western population and is also recognized as an independent risk factor for the development of severe COVID-19. In the pathogenesis of COVID-19, the key role is played by the hyperreactivity of the immune response, the so-called cytokine storm leading to the development of severe forms of pneumonia, acute respiratory and multiorgan failure. The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical course, outcomes, and profile of inflammatory response in patients with COVID-19 and NAFLD.
