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.

Initial data from COVID-19 patients suggests that one of the primary causes of death is significant endothelial injury leading to blood clotting and impaired multiorgan microvascular perfusion. The current study uses a safe, convenient bedside imaging tool called contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to estimate the extent of microvascular perfusion impairment in the heart, kidneys and/or brain of COVID-19 pediatric patients in vivo and assess the significance of imaging findings by correlating to clinical outcomes. This pilot study will be conducted at one site, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. We will enroll and evaluate 30 patients.
University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli"
Single-center study with a parallel group scheme, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, to evaluate whether the addition to the investigator's hospital standard therapy of two vials of Bioarginina® per day in subjects with SARS-CoV-2 is useful for treatment of this pathology.
Genoscience Pharma
This is a multicenter, open-label, controlled, randomized phase 2 study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy profile of GNS561 in patients with COVID-19.
Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
Overweight or obese patients are particularly exposed to severe forms of COVID-19. Few data suggest that adipose tissue infected with SARS-CoV-2 could be involved in the onset of the cytokine storm seen in severe forms of COVID-19. The aim of this study is to determine the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2-infection of adipose tissue. In particular the investigators will study how this virus enters the adipocyte and how it modulates metabolism and inflammation in the adipose tissue. From these data, the investigators hope to determine at the adipose tissue level, original therapeutic targets to modulate the effects of SARS-CoV-2 at the systemic level.

exercise activity during the COVID pandemic is appreciated to be conducted in home especially for chronic chest diseases as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to reduce the chance of viral contamination during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Northwestern University
This is a single-center, randomized double blind placebo controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of novel PAI-1 inhibitor (TM5614) for high-risk patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19 at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. The patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive standard of care plus TM5614 or standard of care plus placebo.

This Randomized Control Trial (RCT) proposes combination of extracorporeal cytokine removal by plasma exchange (PLEX) and additional infusion of convalescent plasma (CCP) collected from COVID-19 recovered individuals at the end of the PLEX procedure. The combination of cytokine removal by PLEX and CCP infusion is in onvestigators opinion more rational compared to CCP infusion alone and as such probably more effective in reducing the duration of mechanical ventilation, length of stay in the intensive care unit, and potentially also mortality.

Worldwide, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to grow. Although COVID-19 mainly affects the lungs and internal organs, musculoskeletal injury from this disease was reported with the presentation of marked elevation in creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase levels. Patients with post-acute COVID-19 are considered patients with a post-intensive syndrome (PICS) that results in loss of functional independence. In the physical and rehabilitation medical field, various modalities with therapeutic exercise can be used to manage pain by a physical therapist and psychiatrist. Pain management is particularly important during the COVID-19 pandemic because of the reduced accessibility to hospitals and medical resources.

Although management of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) often includes mechanical ventilation, the optimal timing of initiation of invasive mechanical ventilation remains unknown. We hypothesise that a randomized controlled trial comparing early intubation as opposed to delayed intubation among patients with COVID-19 suffering from severe acute hypoxemic respiratory failure is feasible.
