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 Viral Global Pandemic resulting in post-infection pulmonary damage, including Fibrotic Lung Disease due to inflammatory and reactive protein secretions damaging pulmonary alveolar structure and functionality. A short review includes: - Early December, 2019 - A pneumonia of unknown cause was detected in Wuhan, China, and was reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) Country Office. - January 30th, 2020 - The outbreak was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. - February 7th, 2020 - 34-year-old Ophthalmologist who first identified a SARS-like coronavirus) dies from the same virus. - February 11th, 2020 - WHO announces a name for the new coronavirus disease: COVID-19. - February 19th, 2020 - The U.S. has its first outbreak in a Seattle nursing home which were complicated with loss of lives.. - March 11th, 2020 - WHO declares the virus a pandemic and in less than three months, from the time when this virus was first detected, the virus has spread across the entire planet with cases identified in every country including Greenland. - March 21st, 2020 - Emerging Infectious Disease estimates the risk for death in Wuhan reached values as high as 12% in the epicenter of the epidemic and ≈1% in other, more mildly affected areas. The elevated death risk estimates are probably associated with a breakdown of the healthcare system, indicating that enhanced public health interventions, including social distancing and movement restrictions, should be implemented to bring the COVID-19 epidemic under control." March 21st 2020 -Much of the United States is currently under some form of self- or mandatory quarantine as testing abilities ramp up.. March 24th, 2020 - Hot spots are evolving and identified, particularly in the areas of New York-New Jersey, Washington, and California. Immediate attention is turned to testing, diagnosis, epidemiological containment, clinical trials for drug testing started, and work on a long-term vaccine started. The recovering patients are presenting with mild to severe lung impairment as a result of the viral attack on the alveolar and lung tissues. Clinically significant impairment of pulmonary function appears to be a permanent finding as a direct result of the interstitial lung damage and inflammatory changes that accompanied. This Phase 0, first-in-kind for humans, is use of autologous, cellular stromal vascular fraction (cSVF) deployed intravenously to examine the anti-inflammatory and structural potential to improve the residual, permanent damaged alveolar tissues of the lungs.

COVID-19 is highly infectious and transmission of the virus is thought to be similar to that of influenza which can be transferred through droplets released when a person coughs, sneezes or talks. Studies have shown that nasal rinsing and mouth washes may be an important way to deliver treatments that could reduce the amount of a virus that is present in the nose and mouth. This also could mean that there is less virus available to pass on to others. We want to see if the use of nose rinses and mouth washes using Povidone-Iodine will reduce the the amount of virus in the nose and throat of people who have tested positive for COVID-19 disease and also reduce the spread of infection within their household.

Antioxidants, and particularly polyphenols, have shown protection in respiratory pathologies, which is related to the decrease in the severity of the clinical picture and suppression of inflammation. This suppression of inflammation may be related to the inhibition of NF-kB polyphenols, where its activation is related to the stimulation of 150 stimuli including cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, THF-α, GM-CSF, MCP-1), TLRs, among others. There may be other additional mechanisms that can help control virus-induced respiratory pathologies, among which are the regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) associated with tissue destruction caused by the virus and a selective antiviral action can be reported. direct. The standardized P2Et extract obtained from C. spinosa, by the Immunobiology Group of the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, is highly antioxidant, decreases lipid peroxidation and tissue damage and induces complete autophagy in stressed or tumor cells. The induction of a full autophagic flow could inhibit the replication of beta-coronaviruses like SARS-CoV-2. Furthermore, P2Et can decrease the factors involved in tissue damage by reducing IL-6 and decrease ILC2 cells of the lung in animals with lung metastases (unpublished data). These antecedents suggest that the supplementation of patients with COVID-19 with the extract P2Et, could improve their general condition and decrease the inflammatory mediators and the viral load.
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Initial data from COVID-19 patients suggests that one of the primary causes of death is significant endothelial injury leading to blood clotting and impaired multiorgan microvascular perfusion. The current study uses a safe, convenient bedside imaging tool called contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to estimate the extent of microvascular perfusion impairment in the heart, kidneys and/or brain of COVID-19 pediatric patients in vivo and assess the significance of imaging findings by correlating to clinical outcomes. This pilot study will be conducted at one site, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. We will enroll and evaluate 30 patients.
University Hospital, Ghent
The investigators are conducting a pilot trial where they will study safety, efficacy and compliance in a cohort of ambulatory patients in the Ghent region with confirmed COVID-19 infection, in both an early stage of disease, defined as less than 5 days of symptoms and who at presentation do not meet any criteria for hospitalisation as well as asymptomatic individuals with a PCR CT value below 30. The primary endpoint is to assess the efficacy of the drug in terms of change from day 0 to day 5 in respiratory (oropharyngeal swab RT-PCR) log10 viral load. The aim of the study is to assess whether Camostat, a serine protease inhibitor available in an oral formulation has the potential to be studied as an antiviral drug in a large scale ambulatory setting to prevent transmission by decreasing viral load, to prevent symptoms after exposure (PEP) in asymptomatic individuals or to prevent disease progression in the occurrence of early symptomatology.

With the results of this study the investigators aim to identify an effective treatment that will reduce morbidity and mortality of patients with symptomatic COVID-19 infection, which would in turn reduce the burden on the healthcare system by decreasing the need for intensive care. Objectives: The main objective of this research is to determine if once weekly treatment with the GLP-1 agonist semaglutide for 4 doses will reduce cardiac as well as non-cardiac complications of COVID-19 infection. Study Plan: The study design is prospective randomized open-label blinded-evaluation (PROBE). Eligible patients with symptomatic COVID-19 infection and an enhanced risk profile as described above, who have been admitted to hospital due to symptoms of COVID-19 infection but do not as yet require critical care will be approached to participate in this study. Provided there are no exclusion criteria and the participants agree by means of documented written informed consent, The participants the participants will be randomized to receive s.c. semaglutide 0.25 mg s.c. or control immediately after randomization and then 0.5 mg s.c. at Day 7, Day 14 and Day 21. Blood will be drawn at Day 7±2 and Day 14±2 for the cardiac troponin biomarker and safety parameters. ECG will be obtained at Day 7±2 and Day 14±2. Primary outcome will be assessed on Day 28. Primary outcome measure: A composite of (1) death from any cause or (2) mechanical ventilation (invasive or non-invasive) at 28 days. Major secondary outcome measure: (1) an elevation to >99th percentile URL upper reference limit (URL) in those with a baseline cardiac troponin level ≤99th percentile URL; or 3x elevation from baseline in those with a baseline cardiac troponin >99th percentile URL; measured at 1 week (7-days) post randomization. Other major secondary outcome measure: A composite of 1. Death from any cause, mechanical ventilation or vasopressor or ECLS support at 28 days 2. an elevation to >99th percentile URL in those with a normal baseline troponin level; or 3x elevation from baseline in those with a baseline troponin; measured at 1 and 2 weeks (7±2 and 14±2 days) post randomization.
