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.

Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of Danoprevir sodium tablet combined with ritonavir for SARS-CoV-2 infected patients.
Instituto de Salud Carlos III
A total of 278 patients are planned. All patients will be in an early-stage of COVID-19. They must be adults and hospitalized. In this study, all participating patients will receive the standard treatment provided according to the current treatment protocols for coronavirus disease. In addition to this treatment, each patient will be randomly assigned to receive additional treatment with convalescent plasma transfusion (CP; blood plasma from patients who have been cured of coronavirus), or continue with standard treatment but without adding transfusion. 50% of the chances of additional treatment with CP, and 50% of the chances of receiving only the standard treatment for coronavirus. The duration of the study shall be one month from the assignment of the treatment. The patient and the doctor will know the treatment assigned.
LCMC Health
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.
Queen's Medical Center
This study is a randomized, open label clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) plus usual care compared to usual care in approximately 350 hospitalized patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The study will be a 2-arm, non-blinded comparison between open label hydroxychloroquine and usual care. The course of treatment (HCQ) is five days. Participants will be followed to study day 28.
NYU Langone Health
In this study invetigators propose to administer clazakizumab to patients with life-threatening COVID-19 infection manifest by pulmonary failure and a clinical picture consistent with a cytokine storm syndrome. This is a double-blinded randomized multi-center trial designed as a phase II dose-finding three arm trial with seamless adaptive transition to a phase III efficacy trial. For phase II, patients were randomized 1:1:1 ratio to three study arms and received clazakizumab at a dose of 12.5 mg, 25 mg or placebo. Based on interim analysis, the low dose arm was dropped and the phase III portion of the study continued to enroll patients randomized 1:1 to high dose clazakizumab or placebo. Based on interim analysis, the remaining 10 subjects at NYU will be randomly assigned to a 1:1 ratio to two arms that will receive clazakizumab at a dose of 25 mg or placebo. The NYU site will serve as the central data management site for other centers who undertake this protocol. Other sites will enroll patients based on the two arm 1:1 randomization. 60 patients at outside sites are expected to enroll.
Virginia Commonwealth University
This study will evaluate the safety of a 96-hour intravenous vitamin C infusion protocol (50 mg/kg every 6 hours) in patients with hypoxemia and suspected COVID-19.
CalciMedica, Inc.
Part 1 of this trial enrolled 30 patients to receive Auxora (formerly CM4620) in a 2:1 randomized, open label trial of patients with severe and critical COVID-19 pneumonia. Part 2 will consist of a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled (RCT) study that will evaluate efficacy, safety, and the pharmacokinetic profile of Auxora in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. The number of patients with an imputed PaO2/FiO2 >200 randomized into the study will be capped at 26. 320 patients with a PaO2/FiO2 ≤200 will be enrolled. Patients with an estimated PaO2/FiO2 of 75-200 will be stratified to ensure balanced randomization between the Auxora and placebo arms. Subgroup analyses will be performed to explore how time to recovery is influenced by baseline variables and to evaluate the treatment effect at different levels of each of these variables. The dose of Auxora will be 2.0 mg/kg (1.25 mL/kg) administered at 0 hour, and then 1.6 mg/kg (1 mL/kg) at 24 hours and 1.6 mg/kg (1 mL/kg) at 48 hours from the SFISD. The dose of placebo will be 1.25 mL/kg administered at 0 hour and then 1 mL/kg at 24 hours and 1 mL/kg at 48 hours from the SFISD. Remdesivir, corticosteroids and convalescent plasma will be allowed. The infusion of Auxora will start within 12 hours from the time the patient or LAR provides informed consent. Efficacy analyses will be presented by treatment group (Auxora vs Placebo) based on the Efficacy Analysis Set of the imputed PaO2/FiO2 ≤200 subgroup, except where it is specified otherwise. The statistical analysis approach will be designed to assess the significance of the primary and first secondary endpoint using the Benjamini and Hochberg method to control the overall trial level alpha level.

To create a protocol for treatment of Pakistani patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection with an intent to reduce burden on institutional healthcare services by determining efficacy of different quinone drug dosing regimens in controlling SARS-CoV-2 infection for asymptomatic patients.
University Hospital, Geneva
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic affects millions of humans worldwide and has led to thousands of acute medical hospitalizations. There is evidence that hospitalized cases often suffer from an important infection-related coagulopathy and from elevated risks of thrombosis. Anticoagulants may have positive effects here, to reduce the burden of thrombotic disease and the hyperactivity of coagulation, and may also hold beneficial anti-inflammatory effects against sepsis and the development of ARDS. The investigators hypothesize that high-dose anticoagulants, compared with low-dose anticoagulants, lower the risk of venous and arterial thrombosis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and mortality. This open-label controlled trial will randomize hospitalized adults with severe COVID-19 infection to therapeutic anticoagulation vs. thromboprophylaxis during the hospital stay.
