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.

COVID-19 pandemic has developed worldwide in less than 4 months. The clinical presentations are variable widely, ranging from simple rhinitis to major lung damage that can lead to death. In many countries involved in the ongoing health disaster due to SARS-CoV-2 infection, hospital are overloaded. In this context, the decision to hospitalize or to manage COVID-19 patients at home is crucial and defining reliable and consensual criteria is a major issue. HOME-CoV study is a multicentre quasi-experimental interventional study, before and after implementation of a help-decision making rule (HOME-CoV rule), developed via the Delphi method. Our main hypothesis is that a strategy based on the consensual HOME-CoV rule compared to current practice is at least as safe as regards the 7-day-rate of adverse events (safety criterion) and more effective as regards the rate of patients eventually managed as outpatients (efficacy criterion).

This is a multi-center, randomized, controlled, phase II clinical efficacy study evaluating a novel Nitric Oxide Releasing Solution (NORS) treatment for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in healthcare workers at risk of infection. Participants will be enrolled into one of two components of this study. Based on initial swabs/symptoms, volunteers who are COVID-19 negative will be enrolled in the Prevention study and randomized to receive standard institutional precautions or standard institutional precautions + NORS. Those who are COVID-19 positive will be enrolled in the open-label Treatment Sub-Study.

In the current COVID-19 pandemic with coronavirus, SARS-COV2, the Danish Health Authorities recommend using facial masks in the health care system when handling patients presumed or proven to be infected with the virus. However, the use of facial masks outside the health care system is not recommended by the Danish Health Authorities. Here, Health Authorities in other countries have different recommendations for the use of facial masks. Challenges when using facial masks outside the health care system include wearing the mask consistently, an efficacy of the mask of app. 8 hours necessitating a change of mask throughout the day, and that it is not sufficiently tight enough to safely keep the virus out. Moreover, the eyes (mucous membrane) remain exposed. Compliance could also be another challenge. SARS-COV2 is assumed to primarily enter the body via the mouth through respiratory droplets - or possibly through inhalation of aerosol containing the virus. From the mouth the virus is assumed to spread to the airways and the gastro-intestinal tract. SARS-COV2 is also known to be transmitted via physical contact, helped along by the fact that the virus can survive on surfaces for at least 72 hours. Touching such a contaminated surface can transfer the virus to the mouth via the hand - and thus lead to infection of the person. Facial masks are expected to protect against viral infection in two ways; 1. By reducing the risk of getting the virus in via the mouth or nose via respiratory droplets or aerosol 2. By reducing the transfer from virus-contaminated hands to the mouth or nose Hypothesis The use of surgical facial masks outside the hospital will reduce the frequency of COVID-19 infection. All participants will follow authority recommendations and be randomized to either wear facial masks or not. The participants will be screened for antibodies at study start and study end. They will perform swab-test if they experience symptoms during the study as well as the end of study.

Background: Aim: To demonstrate the efficacy of low-dose hydroxychloroquine as primary prevention in healthcare workers Design, participants and interventions: Prospective, randomized, parallel group, double-blinded, placebo controlled, study. including 440 participants who will be randomised to 2 treatment arms: hydroxychloroquine or placebo. Outcome variables: symptomatic or asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by PCR, viral load during SARS-CoV-2 infection, seroconversion during the study period, incidence of any acute respiratory infection, days of sick leave. Statistical considerations: No trials have been published investigating the efficacy of HCQ as primary prophylaxis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in health care workers. Thus, sample size calculations in the proposed trial are based on the investigators' best estimates for several parameters. In accordance to the effect of oseltamivir against symptomatic influenza, we assumed an approximate effectiveness of approximately 60% (HR of 0.4) (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6464969/) as realistic. As a prophylactic intervention with HCQ, which may have side effects and for which supply shortage can be expected, was judged justifiable only if its effectiveness is high, we based our sample size consideration on a HR of 0.3. To estimate the probability of an event in both the experimental and the control group, very little data is available. In a Dutch point-prevalence study 0-10% of health-care workers were infected depending on the healthcare institution, depending on the hospital. This point-prevalence study was performed between 6 and 9 March, when the reported number of cases in the Netherlands was 33 and 77, respectively, according to the RIVM (https://www.rivm.nl/nieuws/resultaat-steekproef-4-ziekenhuismedewerkers…). Additionally, in an a report published in the Lancet, 20% of responding healthcare workers in Italy were found to be infected with SARS-CoV2 within less than one month (https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)3062…). Several media reports indicate that this proportion is similar across various healthcare institutions and countries (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/24/world/europe/coronavirus-europe-covi…) and (https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/03/spain-tightens-restrictions-week… 30191539568.html). As the proposed study will be performed in a high-risk setting, we assumed an event (i.e. PCR positivity) probability of 10% in the control group and 3% in the experimental arm after the maximum study period. In summary, a sample size of 210 participants per arm is necessary to detect a HR of 0.3 with a power of 80.3% with an alpha-error of 0.05. To account for drop-outs and asymptomatic, undetected infection at inclusion or past infection with existing immunity, an additional 10 participants will randomized per treatment arm. The overall study population is therefore 440 participants. Statistical analysis will be based on two populations: A Modified Intention to Treat population excluding those who withdrew consent after randomization and those with a positive serology at baseline. And a per protocol population including all randomized subjects who completed at least 3 out of 4 follow-up visits and took at least 80% of all doses of study medication.
Novartis is the Marketing Authorization Holder for Jakavi outside the US.
The purpose of this Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to ruxolitinib for eligible patients diagnosed with severe/very severe COVID-19 illness. The patient's Treating Physician should follow the suggested treatment guidelines and comply with all local health authority regulations. The requesting Treating Physician submitted a request for access to drug (often referred to as Compassionate Use) to Novartis which was reviewed and approved by the medical team experienced with the drug and indication. Please refer to the latest Investigator's Brochure (IB) or approved label for overview of ruxolitinib including: non-clinical and clinical experience, risk and benefits. Novartis will continue to provide any new safety information to the Treating Physician as they emerge.
