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.

The positive cases of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) in Indonesia has been increasing rapidly since the first case found in March 2020 to date. Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus disrupts human normal immune system resulting in uncontrolled inflammatory response. Based on our research and experience in doing cell therapy for 9 years, activated platelet-rich plasma (PRP) produces anti-inflammatory effects in inflammatory condition that is beneficial for tissue regeneration. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the potential of autologous activated platelet-rich plasma (aaPRP) and the outcomes for treating severe Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

This study aims to address the following three objectives: 1. Longitudinal evaluation of the development of CMI responses in response to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine: T cells isolated from the blood of COVID-19 vaccine recipients will be evaluated for their functionality in response to vaccine antigens. The temporal and functional properties of CMI responses will be correlated with the humoral or antibody responsiveness. CMI responses will be measured in vaccine recipients prior to vaccination to determine whether the presence or functionality of pre-existing responses to common cold coronaviruses (CCCs) or previous SARS-CoV-2 infections affect the development of CMI responses to the COVID-19 vaccine. 2. Identification of cellular and soluble factors that influence vaccine responsiveness: While it is known that poor clinical outcomes in COVID-19 patients are strongly associated with markers of systemic inflammation, the influence these systemic markers will have on COVID-19 vaccine responsiveness is not clear. Using systems biology approaches, the investigators will perform comprehensive profiling of cellular immune subsets, inflammatory signatures to identify determinants influencing the development of CMI responses to vaccine. 3. Examine variability of immune and viral genes and their relationship to vaccine induced immune responses: Human leukocyte antigen (HLA), T cell receptor (TCR) and B cell receptor (BCR) proteins are highly genetically diverse and critical to development of protective immunity. The investigators will perform HLA sequencing on whole blood-derived DNA samples and TCR and BCR sequencing on sorted, SARS-CoV2 vaccine antigen-specific T cells and B cells, respectively, to assess how different sequence combinations impact the CMI responses to vaccine.

Efficacy and Safety of DWJ1248 with Remdesivir in Severe COVID-19 Patients

Ivermectin, a classical antiparasitic and anti-scabies agent, has demonstrated antiviral activity for a variety of viruses including chikungunya virus, zyka virus and dengue virus and was tested as a potentially effective for COVID-19. Although ivermectin demonstrated potent in vitro action by reducing viral load by 5000x after 48 hours of incubation, simultaneous pharmacokinetics simulations suggested that the minimum effective concentrations would be unfeasible to be reached within safety range (EC-50 = 2 Micromol). However, despite the theoretical unfeasible concentrations to be achieved, preliminary observational yet well-structured studies followed by randomized clinical trials (RCTs) demonstrated ivermectin efficacy when combined with hydroxychloroquine, doxycycline or azithromycin, which was corroborated by a recent systematic review and metanalysis. In common, a dose-response effect for effectiveness was observed, and no adverse effects was reported at any dose between 0.2mg/kg/day and 1.0mg/kg/day. Based on the scientific rationale combined with the preliminary evidence, ivermectin has sufficient evidence to be tested in higher doses in a RCT for COVID-19. The investigators propose to test ivermectin at high doses as a treatment for patients recently diagnosed with COVID-19, aiming to explore the possible protective role of high-dose ivermectin in SARS-CoV-2 infection in terms of reduction of clinic and virologic disease duration, and prevention of oxygen use, hospitalization, mechanical ventilation, death, and post-COVID persisting symptoms.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected almost every country in the world, especially in terms of health system capacity and economic burden. People from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) often face interaction between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular disease. Role of HIV infection and anti-retroviral treatment (ART) in altered cardiovascular risk is questionable and there is still need to further carry out research in this field. However, thus far it is unclear, what impact the COVID-19 co-infection in people living with HIV (PLHIV), with or without therapy will have. The ENDOCOVID project aims to investigate whether and how HIV-infection in COVID-19 patients modulates the time course of the disease, alters cardiovascular risk, and changes vascular endothelial function and coagulation parameters/ thrombosis risk. Methods: In this long-term study, cardiovascular research on PLHIV with or without ART with COVID-19 and HIV-negative with COVID-19 will be carried out via clinical and biochemical measurements for cardiovascular risk factors and biomarkers of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Vascular and endothelial function will be measured by brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation (FMD), carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) assessments, and retinal blood vessel analyses, along with vascular endothelial biomarkers and coagualation markers. The correlation between HIV-infection in COVID-19 PLHIV with or without ART and its role in enhancement of cardiovascular risk and endothelial dysfunction will be assessed. Potential changes in these endpoints by COVID-19 will be followed for 4 weeks across the three groups (PLHIVwith or without ART and HIV negatives). Impact of project: The ENDOCOVID project aims to evaluate in the long-term the cardiovascular risk and vascular endothelial function in PLHIV thus revealing an important transitional cardiovascular phenotype in COVID-19.
