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.

In this study invetigators propose to administer clazakizumab to patients with life-threatening COVID-19 infection manifest by pulmonary failure and a clinical picture consistent with a cytokine storm syndrome. This is a double-blinded randomized multi-center trial designed as a phase II dose-finding three arm trial with seamless adaptive transition to a phase III efficacy trial. For phase II, patients were randomized 1:1:1 ratio to three study arms and received clazakizumab at a dose of 12.5 mg, 25 mg or placebo. Based on interim analysis, the low dose arm was dropped and the phase III portion of the study continued to enroll patients randomized 1:1 to high dose clazakizumab or placebo. Based on interim analysis, the remaining 10 subjects at NYU will be randomly assigned to a 1:1 ratio to two arms that will receive clazakizumab at a dose of 25 mg or placebo. The NYU site will serve as the central data management site for other centers who undertake this protocol. Other sites will enroll patients based on the two arm 1:1 randomization. 60 patients at outside sites are expected to enroll.

The main manifestation of COVID-19 is acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). In patients with AHRF, the need for invasive mechanical ventilation is associated with high mortality. Two hypotheses will be tested in this study. The first hypothesis is the benefit of corticosteroid therapy on severe COVID-19 infection admitted in ICU in terms of survival. The second hypothesis is that, in the subset of patients free of mechanical ventilation at admission, either Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or High-Flow Nasal Oxygen (HFNO) allows to reduce intubation rate safely during COVID-19 related acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.

Many critical ethical questions arise in pandemic covid 19planning, preparedness and response. These include: Who will get priority access to medications, vaccines and intensive care unit beds, given the potential shortage of these essential resources? In the face of a pandemic, what obligations do health-care workers have to work not withstanding risks to their own health and the health of their families? How can surveillance, isolation, quarantine and social-distancing measures be undertaken in a way that respects ethical norms? What obligations do countries have to one another with respect to pandemic covid 19 planning and response efforts?

This study will evaluate the safety of a 96-hour intravenous vitamin C infusion protocol (50 mg/kg every 6 hours) in patients with hypoxemia and suspected COVID-19.

a brief questionnaire to get a clearer picture of the situation regarding surgical patients with special emphasis on asymptomatic Covid-19 patients.

This epidemiological, transversal, cohort study aims to determine the potential influence of an active long-term hydroxychloroquine intake over the prevalence of a history of symptoms evocative of a COVID-19 infection in patients with a history of systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome or psoriatic arthritis, during the epidemic period in France. The information is gathered using a standardized questionnaire, by phone call.

Part 1 of this trial enrolled 30 patients to receive Auxora (formerly CM4620) in a 2:1 randomized, open label trial of patients with severe and critical COVID-19 pneumonia. Part 2 will consist of a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled (RCT) study that will evaluate efficacy, safety, and the pharmacokinetic profile of Auxora in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. The number of patients with an imputed PaO2/FiO2 >200 randomized into the study will be capped at 26. 320 patients with a PaO2/FiO2 ≤200 will be enrolled. Patients with an estimated PaO2/FiO2 of 75-200 will be stratified to ensure balanced randomization between the Auxora and placebo arms. Subgroup analyses will be performed to explore how time to recovery is influenced by baseline variables and to evaluate the treatment effect at different levels of each of these variables. The dose of Auxora will be 2.0 mg/kg (1.25 mL/kg) administered at 0 hour, and then 1.6 mg/kg (1 mL/kg) at 24 hours and 1.6 mg/kg (1 mL/kg) at 48 hours from the SFISD. The dose of placebo will be 1.25 mL/kg administered at 0 hour and then 1 mL/kg at 24 hours and 1 mL/kg at 48 hours from the SFISD. Remdesivir, corticosteroids and convalescent plasma will be allowed. The infusion of Auxora will start within 12 hours from the time the patient or LAR provides informed consent. Efficacy analyses will be presented by treatment group (Auxora vs Placebo) based on the Efficacy Analysis Set of the imputed PaO2/FiO2 ≤200 subgroup, except where it is specified otherwise. The statistical analysis approach will be designed to assess the significance of the primary and first secondary endpoint using the Benjamini and Hochberg method to control the overall trial level alpha level.
Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, India
To address the existing deficiencies in the knowledge regarding liver involvement and spectrum of clinical presentation and the impact of COVID-19 infection in patients of liver disease was planned. The present study will be a hospital based and the cases of confirmed COVID-19 infection will be evaluated in relation to liver involvement irrespective of pre-existing liver disease. The primary objective was to address the clinical presentation, biochemical alteration and outcomes of COVID-19 infection in subjects with chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis in comparison to those having infection in the absence of pre-existing liver disease
