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.

To evaluate the value-based effectiveness of the implementation of TMH Extended post anaesthetic care in PACU during COVID-19 pandemics by an institutional matched case-control and quantitative survey study Two ordinary recovery beds were converted to an overnight intensive recovery ("Extended post-anesthetic care in PACU") within the operating theatre complex of Tuen Mun Hospital during COVID-19 pandemics, in an attempt to free the ICU bed and resources from postoperative patients. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and staff perceptions towards the abrupt implementation of TMH extended post-anesthetic care in PACU by mobilization of the existing OT resources to cope with the COVID-19 emergency situations. The value-based analysis would look into the implementation effectiveness in twofold: 1) the clinical efficacy using a case-control audit on clinical outcomes and 2) the staff acceptance by means of the staff attitudes survey. Hopefully, this would provide a multi-perspective evaluation of the implementation strategies and aid planning of new services in the future.

The investigators hypothese that lung involvement due to COVID-19 may cause structural changes in the lung in the long term. In this study the effects of structural changes in the lung on pulmonary function tests, exercise capacity and quality of life will be examined.

The main clinical manifestation associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection is an influenza-like illness that follows the infection of the respiratory tract. In a few percent of infected people, inflammation of the lungs leads to severe pneumonia that requires hospitalization, in intensive care units for the more severe cases. Despite intensive care, a fatal outcome occurs in 6% and 12% of women and men over 80 years of age hospitalized for severe COVID, respectively. Factors associated with a higher risk of death in patients with SARS-CoV-2 include age and low circulating lymphocyte counts. Significant lymphopenia is indeed frequently observed in patients with severe COVID-19 and both phenotypic and functional changes in antiviral T cells have been correlated with the severity of COVID-19. The thymus, the organ that produces T lymphocytes, undergoes progressive physiological involution with age. However, in the elderly, rare cases of thymic hyperplasia are reported in autoimmune diseases or cancers, or are observed in response to deep lymphopenia, whether or not associated with sepsis. This cohort of patients treated for a SARS-CoV-2 infection could allow to better understand the role of the thymus in this pathology.

The aim for this study is further to elucidate the presence of dysautonomia in post-covid-19 patients, by evaluating heart rate variability.

COVID-19 infection is hypothesized to have a potentially negative effect on male fertility through direct damage to the testes. The current trial is aimed at investigating the effect of SARS-CoV-2 on fertility and determining if viral bodies are capable of directly damaging testicular cells

Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage. Many factors can affect pain and its severity. This study aims to explore how the COVID-19 affects chronic pain patients in terms of pain in general, intensity of pain, desire for pain treatment including follow up visits and pain medication refills as well as sleep.

Nasopharynx Microbiota Component and in Vitro Cytokines Production in Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)
The investigators will study nasopharunx microbiota composition, RNA sequences and in vitro cytokines production by peripheral blood cells of COVID-19 patients (both mild-moderate and severe cases) (comparing with convalescent patients and healthy controls).

Maraviroc (MVC) is a drug, very well tolerated, it has been seen that MVC has properties of modulating the immune system, exerting an anti-inflammatory effect in different diseases. In COVID-19, very high levels of inflammation occur that cause organs and systems to be damaged. MVC could reduce this inflammation achieving a better prognosis of COVID-19.

Patients who are critically ill in intensive care with moderate to severe acute respiratory infection often require mechanical ventilation. Prolonged ventilation increases the risk of lung damage and other side effects as a result of long term use of sedation medications. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy (ECMO), is a relatively new technology that uses a pump to remove blood from the body and return it back to the body after adding oxygen and removing carbon dioxide. ECMO can be used on patients who require mechanical ventilation and can function without the need for ongoing mechanical ventilation, thus reducing risk of side effects. Participants will be randomised into either the early ECMO therapy group or will continue standard treatment involving mechanical ventilation. This pilot study aims to determine if a phase 3 Randomised Control Trial (RCT) is feasible for the use of early ECMO therapy to treat patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI). The success of the study will be determined by the successful recruitment of adult patients, that there is a difference between ECMO utilisation between groups and that there are no safety issues.
