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.

GEN-COVID multicenter study aims to identify the genetic variants of the host genomeresponsible for the clinical variability of patients with COVID-19. This variability todate is only partially related to the age and comorbidities of patients. The primaryobjective of the study is therefore to identify genetic variants associated with theseverity of the disease, while the secondary objective consists in the identification ofvariants associated with longitudinal disease trajectories.This is a laboratory study that involves the conduct of genetic investigations, includingwhole exome sequencing and genome wide association studies, on human biological materialfrom patients affected by COVID-19.Clinical information useful to describe the level of disease severity will be alsocollected for each enrolled patient.A total of at least 2,000 COVID-19 patients is expected to be included.
