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.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients have an underlying immune deficiency and typically treated with immunosuppressive drugs, which may increase the risk of COVID-19 infection. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) has been found to possess antiviral activity against COVID-19. Thus, the aim of this study to investigate the ability of HCQ to reduce the risk of COVID-19 among RA patients.
Hospital Universitario Ramon y Cajal
unicenter, randomized, open-label clinical trial on the efficacy of tocilizumab in modifying the inflammatory parameters of patients with COVID-19.
Farmoquimica S.A.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the drug nitazoxanide 600 mg, administered three times a day, in relation to placebo in preventing the development of COVID-19 in subjects from vulnerable communities that had direct contact with patients diagnosed with the disease.
PhaseBio Pharmaceuticals Inc.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group study to investigate the efficacy of pemziviptadil (PB1046) by improving the clinical outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients at high risk for rapid clinical deterioration, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and death. The study will enroll approximately 210 hospitalized COVID-19 patients who require urgent decision-making and treatment at approximately 20 centers in the United States.
Temple University
The primary aim of this study is to test whether Doxycycline can benefit patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections by inhibiting the replication of the virus while at the same time blocking the development of cytokine storms or inhibiting cytokine-associated coagulopathy respectively. The investigators hypothesize that Doxycycline will will improve survival and reduce morbidity in SARS-CoV-2 infected patients. A secondary aim is to identify genetic variants that predict either an unusually mild disease or an unusually severe disease - knowledge that can be used to design new and precise medications and to be able to predict patients who might get into early trouble and to therefore hospitalize them.
Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Sweden
Purpose: The emergence of a new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 causing a novel infection in the human race resulting in a world-spanning pandemic came as a surprise and at a tremendous cost both for individual human lives as well as for the society and the health care sector. The knowledge on how this new infection affects both the mother and the unborn child as well as the outcomes for the mother and the child in the long run are unknown. What is known is based on case-reports and small case-series solely. Both the coronaviruses causing Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) can cause a threat to pregnant women and their offspring, which leads to the question whether this could be the case also for SARS-CoV-2. Aims: To establish a biobank of biological material from infected as well as non-infected pregnant women and their offspring. To combine this biobank with Swedish quality and health care registers, computerized patient charts and questionnaire data, enabling both short-term follow up, such as obstetric outcomes, as well as long-term outcomes both for mother and child. To study how the pandemic situation affects both the mother and her partner in their experience of pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood. Design: A national Swedish multicentre study. Women are included when they have a positive test for SARS-CoV-2 or a clinical suspicion of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (COVID-19 group). Pregnant women without COVID-19 symptoms will be included at their routine visits (Screening group). Blood samples and other biological material will be collected at different time-points. Additional predictors and outcomes are collected from the Swedish Pregnancy Register as well as obligatory Swedish health registers. The biobank and its linkage to health registers through the Swedish personal identification number will enable future research. Child development will be followed during the first year of life by questionnaires to the parents. Womens' and their partners' experience of childbirth and parenthood will be studied in form of questionnaires as well as in form of interviews. Conclusion: This project will help obstetricians and neonatologists better recognize clinical manifestations of the virus, identify possible risk factors during pregnancy and tailor therapies alongside providing right level of surveillance and management during pregnancy, delivery, and child health care.
Ono Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd
The primary aim of this study is to determine whether Camostat mesylate reduces SARS-COV-2 associated coagulopathy. Additional aims are to determine the effect of Camostat mesylate on SARS-COV-2 associated myocardial injury, to assess duration of hypoxia or intubation, to evaluate the length of intensive care unit and hospital stay, and assess mortality rates.
MediciNova
The study aims to evaluate MN-166 (ibudilast) in patients with COVID-19 who are at risk of developing acute respiratory distress syndrome. Subjects will be screened, randomly assigned to MN-166 or placebo groups, receive study drug on Days 1-7, and followed up on Day 14 and Day 28.
Aalborg University Hospital
Patients with COVID-19 and hypoxaemic respiratory failure and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are treated with supplementary oxygen as a standard. However, quality of quantity evidence regarding this practise is low. The aim of the HOT-COVID trial is to evaluate the benefits and harms of two targets of partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) in guiding the oxygen therapy in acutely ill adult COVID-19 patients with hypoxaemic respiratory failure at ICU admission.
Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild
Sars-Cov2 (COVID-19) may invade the CNS inducing neurological diseases such as anosmia, ageusia, encephalitis, ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. Management of severe neurological complications in COVID-19 patients may require ventricular cerebrospinal fluid drainage and cranial decompression. During surgery, cerebrospinal fluid, meninges and brain parenchyma can be safely removed from the patient. In this study, COVID-19 patients will be evaluated first, for the presence of Sars-Cov2 in the cerebrospinal fluid and/or biopsies and second, for the consequences of Sars-Cov2 neuroinfection in terms of inflammatory and immune responses.
