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.

CCAP is an investigator-initiated multicentre, randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled trial, which aims to assess the safety and efficacy of treatment with convalescent plasma for patients with moderate-severe COVID-19. Participants will be randomized 2:1 to two parallel treatment arms: Convalescent plasma, and intravenous placebo. Primary outcome is a composite endpoint of all-cause mortality or need of invasive mechanical ventilation up to 28 days.

COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and causes substantial morbidity and mortality. There is currently no vaccine to prevent Covid-19 or infection with SARS-CoV-2 or therapeutic agent to treat COVID-19. This protocol CORIMUNO19-COAG will evaluate the efficacy and safety of active anticoagulation using heparin: Tinzaparin (INNOHEP®) or unfractionated heparin (Calciparine®, Héparine Sodique Choay®) in COVID-19 patients hospitalized in conventional or intensive care units. It will use a phase 2 randomized open-label multicentre clinical trial, where patients will be randomly allocated to anticoagulation versus Standard of Care.

Bevacizumab, ZERIBEV® (Pfizer)/AVASTIN® (Roche) 25 mg/ml ®, is a recombinant humanised monoclonal IgG1 antibody It seems interesting to use bevacizumab in severe patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 requiring hospitalization in conventional unit or in ICU. This protocol CORIMUNO19-BEVA will evaluate the efficacy and safety of AVASTIN®/ ZERIBEV® (bevacizumab) COVID-19 patients hospitalized in conventional units. This phase 2 randomized clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of AVASTIN®/ ZERIBEV® (bevacizumab) alone versus standard of care (SoC) in patients hospitalized in conventional units.

Currently there are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs specifically for the treatment of patients with COVID-19. At present, clinical management includes infection prevention and control measures, as well as supportive care, including supplementary oxygen and mechanical ventilatory support when indicated. An array of drugs approved for other indications as well as several investigational drugs are being studied in several hundred clinical trials that are underway across the globe; however, currently there are no clinical trials available to patients in Arizona. This study will determine if a specific drug cocktail can improve clinical outcomes in patients with confirmed Mild SARS-CoV-2

This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of Methylprednisolone versus Tocilizumab in improving clinical outcomes and reducing the need for ventilator support in COVID-19 patients with moderate COVID-19 disease at risk for complications of cytokine storm. Approximately 310 participants hospitalized with COVID-19 in UMMC, Hospital Sungai Buloh, Hospital Kuala Lumpur and Hospital Tuanku Jaafar will be enrolled into this study. Eligible participants will be selected based on a set of clinical, laboratory and radiological parameters indicative of early stages of CRS and lung function decline prior to being randomized at a ratio of 1:1 to receive either Tocilizumab or Methylprednisolone. Participants will be monitored daily for clinical and laboratory parameters, and at 48 hours, switched to the alternate study arm should they manifest signs and symptoms indicative of decompensation.

COVID-19 is a respiratory illness caused by SARS-CoV-2 with a range of symptoms from mild, self-limiting respiratory tract infections to severe progressive pneumonia, multiorgan dysfunction and death. A portion of individuals with COVID-19 experience life-threatening hypoxia requiring supplemental oxygen and mechanical ventilation. Management of hypoxia in this population is complicated by contraindication of non-invasive ventilation and limitations in access to mechanical ventilation and critical care staff given the clinical burden of disease. Positional therapy is readily deployable and may ultimately be used to treat COVID-19 related respiratory failure in resources limited settings; and, it has been demonstrated to improve oxygenation and is easy to implement in the clinical setting. The overall goal of this randomized controlled trial is to establish the feasibility of performing a randomized trial using a simple, minimally invasive positional therapy approach to improve hypoxia and reduce progression to mechanical ventilation. The objectives are to examine the effectiveness and feasibility of maintaining an inclined position in patients with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 associated hypoxemic respiratory failure. The investigators hypothesize that (1) oxyhemoglobin saturation will improve with therapy, (2) participants will tolerate and adhere to the intervention, and that (3) participants who adhere to positional therapy will have reduced rates of mechanical ventilation at 72 hours. If successful, this feasibility trial will demonstrate that a simple, readily deployed nocturnal postural maneuver is well tolerated and reverses underlying defects in ventilation and oxygenation due to COVID-19. It will also inform the design of a pivotal Phase III trial with estimates of sample sizes for clinically relevant outcomes.

This study proposes to evaluate clinical outcomes and viral load in COVID-19 infected patients with early moderate and severe disease admitted to the hospital and randomized to one of three arms. Patients will be randomized to supportive care, OR hydroxychloroquine alone, OR hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin.
