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.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). SAB Biotherapeutics has developed SAB-185, an Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Human Immunoglobulin Intravenous (transchromosomic [Tc] bovine-derived), as a potential therapeutic to treat COVID-19. This study will evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics of SAB-185 in healthy participants.

All patients with heart disease should have the opportunity to participate in research into their condition, to advance knowledge and treatment. The HeartHive COVID-19 study is an international online pilot observational cohort study evaluating the impact and clinical outcomes of the COVID-19 pandemic on subjects enrolled in the HeartHive. Cardiomyopathies are progressive diseases, and there is a need to better understand what factors affect the chances of developing cardiomyopathy, and how the condition progresses. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patients with cardiomyopathy has not been explored and represents a critical unmet need. Insights into exposure, healthcare outcomes, behavioural changes and the psychosocial ramifications of the pandemic are required to better understand the health needs of this population during these unprecedented circumstances and to adapt clinical services to meet these. The study will entail completing serial online surveys during the pandemic. This study uses The Heart Hive - an international, online registry of patients with self-reported clinically diagnosed cardiomyopathy, and people without heart disease. Participants enrol and upload their own data through the website. It is the second research study that will be offered to registry participants and delivered through The Heart Hive platform.

The number of COVID-19 cases has been growing exponentially, so that the industrialized economies are facing a significant shortage in the number of ventilators available to meet the demands imposed by the disease. Noninvasive ventilatory support can be valuable for certain patients, avoiding tracheal intubation and its complications. However, non-invasive techniques have a high potential to generate aerosols during their implementation, especially when masks are used in which it is virtually impossible to completely prevent air leakage and the dispersion of aerosols with viral particles. In this context, a helmet-like interface system with complete sealing and respiratory isolation of the patient's head can allow the application of ventilatory support without intubation and with safety and comfort for healthcare professionals and patients. This type of device is not accessible in Brazil, nor is it available for immediate import, requiring the development of a national product. Meanwhile, a task force under the coordination of the School of Public Health (ESP) and Fundação Cearense de Apoio à Pesquisa (FUNCAP), with support from SENAI / FIEC and the Federal Universities of Ceará (UFC) and the University of Fortaleza (UNIFOR) advanced in the development of a prototype and accessory system capable of providing airway pressurization through a helmet-type interface, which was called the Elmo System.

The QUICK study main aim is to assess the predictive value at Day 1, of a model built on lung ultrasound (LUS) and clinical data, both recorded at hospital admission of COVID-19 patients.

The investigators thought that the confinement measure took in France could induce an increase in the post traumatic syndrome in the relative of patient hospitalized in ICU during this period indeed the restricted visit and the limited interaction with ICU team are documented risk factors for PTSD in this population. The investigators designed an intervention in order to prevent the effect of the confinement measures on PTSD in relatives named OLAF. In this research the investigators aimed to study the impact on this intervention on PTSD.

The study will evaluate the efficacy of Ad26.COV2.S in the prevention of molecularly confirmed moderate to severe/critical COVID-19, as compared to placebo, in adult participants.

Respiratory infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus is associated with a major risk of viral pneumonia that can lead to respiratory distress requiring resuscitation. In the most severe forms, it may require a mechanical ventilation or even lead to an acute respiratory distress syndrome with a particularly poor prognosis. The SARS-CoV2 is a single-stranded RNA virus of positive polarity and belongs to the beta genus of Coronaviruses. SARS-CoV2 is responsible for the third epidemic in less than twenty years secondary to a Coronavirus (SARS-CoV then MERS-CoV) and if the mortality associated with it is lower than that of previous strains, particularly MERS-CoV (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome), its spread is considerably bigger. As a result, the number of patients developing respiratory distress that require an invasive mechanical ventilation is high, with prolonged ventilation duration in these situations.

Lymphopenia is common in patients with COVID-19 and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. NT-I7 is a long-acting human interleukin-7 (IL-7) that has been shown to increase absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and CD4+ and CD8+ T cell counts with a well-tolerated safety profile in humans. In this study, patients who have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by PCR testing without severe disease and with ALC

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the last coronavirus discovered, called SARS-CoV-2. Symptoms encountered in COVID-19 are: cough, breathing difficulties (dyspnea, chest pain, etc.), pyrexia, anosmia (loss of smell) and/or dysgeusia (loss of taste), but also ENT symptoms (rhinitis type, odynophagia), headaches, asthenia, muscle pain, confusion and diarrhea. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 can also be asymptomatic. COVID-19 can be passed from person to person by respiratory droplets expelled when a person speaks, coughs or sneezes. The currently estimated incubation period ranges from 1 to 14 days, and most often this is around 5 days. According to a literature review, there is strong evidence that COVID-19 has an impact on mental health (anxiety being the most common symptom) whether in the general population, healthcare workers or vulnerable populations. The objective of this project is to assess mental health and sleep disorders within two populations: elderly patients and nursing staff.
