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.

The rapidly spreading coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic is a major concern worldwide and Italy is at the forefront of this emergency. At the present moment, the effects on the offspring of Covid-19 disease in pregnant women and/or the indirect effect of COVID-19-related prenatal maternal stress are poorly understood. Epigenetic mechanisms - and especially DNA methylation - are involved in the embedding of prenatal exposures to large-scale disasters into the epigenome and phenotypic outcomes of the offspring. Specific target genes include SLC6A4, NR3C1, OXTR, BDNF, and FKBP5. The central hypothesis of this project is that the exposure to the COVID-19-related prenatal maternal stress may affect infants' outcomes from birth to 12 months partially through increased methylation of target genes involved in stress regulation. The main goal is to investigate the association between Covid-19 disease in pregnancy or COVID-19-related PMS in women pregnant during the first 9 months of the year 2020 and the emotional, social, and cognitive developmental outcomes in their infants from birth to 12 months. Additionally, the role of target genes methylation in mediating this association will be investigated. Mothers and their infants will be enrolled from the delivery units of eleven neonatal facilities located in Northern Italy's COVID-19 contagion hotspot. One group will be enrolled from April to October 2020 (COVID-Exposure Pregnancy, CEP), a second group will be enrolled from April to October 2021 (Non-Exposure Pregnancy, NEP). Moreover, the CEP group will include mothers positive or exposed to COVID-19-related MPS during different trimesters of pregnancy, allowing within-group comparisons on developmentally sensitive time windows. Within 48 hours from baby delivery, saliva samples will be obtained from CEP and NEP newborns, immediately stored at -20°C and analyzed for epigenetic analyses using Next-Generation Sequencing. At 3 and 6 months, mothers will be asked to fill-in validated and reliable questionnaires on the emotional and social-behavioral development of their infants. At 12 months, infants' stress regulation and maternal sensitivity will be evaluated through video recording of mother-infant interactions. This study will provide unprecedented relevant insights on the biochemical mechanisms underlying the impact of Covid-19 disease and the related PMS on human offspring's developmental outcomes.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, people's lives have changed dramatically. People with lung cancer who are shielding may have been particularly affected as they may be unable to carry out many of their normal daily activities, such as grocery shopping and exercise, and are unable to interact with friends and family. People with lung cancer will also have experienced some changes to the clinical services available to them at The Christie. Using a questionnaire and interviews, the investigators want to understand patient experiences of the changes in their daily lives and the changes to their clinical care. This will help us to see if people with lung cancer need any additional support services or if there are any changes the investigators can make to clinical services to improve patient experiences. Eligible patients will be any lung cancer patients receiving current treatment or in active follow up.

Patients are part of a family network. When any person in a family becomes critically unwell and requires the assistance of an Intensive Care Unit (ICU), this has an impact on all members of that family. COVID-19 changed visiting for all patients in hospitals across Scotland. It is not known what effect these restrictions will have on patients' recovery, nor do we understand the impact it may have on their relatives or staff caring for them. This study will look at the implications of the visiting restrictions as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic upon patients without COVID-19 who are in the cardiothoracic ICU. It will also explore the impact of these restrictions on them, their relatives and staff. This study will be carried out within a single specialised intensive care unit in Scotland using mixed methods. The first arm of this study will use retrospective data that is routinely collected in normal clinical practice. The investigators will compare patient outcomes prior to COVID-19 with outcomes following the implementation of COVID-19 visiting restrictions. The aim is to establish if the restrictions on visiting has an impact on the duration of delirium. Delirium is an acute mental confusion and is associated with longer hospital stays and worse outcomes in this patient group. The second arm of this study involves semi-structured interviews with patients, relatives and staff that will allow deeper exploration of the issues around current visiting policy. The interviews will last approximately 1 hour and will address these issues. They will then be transcribed word for word and analysed using grounded theory, meaning the theories will develop from the data as it is analysed.

The aim of this study is to analyze if the use of oral antimicrobial solutions and dentifricies are able to reduce the SARS-CoV-2 load in the saliva and oral mucosa. It will be allocated hospitalized patients positive for SARS-CoV-2 (confirmed by RT-PCR of nasopharynx swab tests) and with signs and symptoms of COVID-19. These patients will be divided into two groups: patients enrolled in negative pressure rooms (NPR), and patients enrolled in intensive care units (ICU) with orotracheal intubation. These two groups will receive interventions with oral antimicrobial solutions or dentifrices, containing different compounds. Saliva and oral mucosa swabs will be collected before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, and after 30min and 1h. The primary outcome is to verify if these products can reduce the SARS-CoV-2 load in the saliva and oral mucosa at these time periods, detected by the measurement of the viral load and the fold-reduction.

This is a phase 1 clinical trial to verify the safety and efficacy of DW-MSC in COVID-19 patients. A total of 9 subjects are randomly allocated. Subjects who meet the final inclusion and exclusion criteria are randomized to the test groups (low-dose group and high-dose group) or control group (placebo group) in a ratio of 1:1:1. Subjects assigned to the test groups were administered intravenously once with 5 x 10^7cells of DW-MSC for the low-dose group or 1 x 10^8cells for the high-dose group after registration. Subjects assigned to the control group were administered with placebo in the same manner as the test drug (DW-MSC). At this time, all of the existing standard co-treatment are allowed. DW-MSC is adjunct therapy to standard therapy. This clinical trial is a double-blind trial, in which a randomized method will be used. To maintain the double-blindness of the study, statistician who do not participate in this study independently generate randomization code. Subjects will be randomized to the test groups (low-dose group and high-dose group) or the control group (placebo group) in a 1:1:1 ratio. After the completion of the trial, the randomization code will be disclosed after unlocking the database and unblinding procedures. Follow Up period: observed for 28 days after a single administration

Brazil has the Latin America's largest coronavirus outbreak, numbers second only to the United States in the western hemisphere. The first COVID-19 confirmed case in Brazil was on February of 2020. A 61yrs old man tested positive after returning from a trip to Italy. Few other very first cases were also imported from Europe by returning travelers. The first locally transmitted case was registered on March of 2020, when a total of 8 cases have already been confirmed. At the time the WHO declares the outbreak as a pandemic (March 11) Brazil had 52 confirmed cases being 6 of those locally transmitted. Healthcare professionals are now more important than ever. Given the intrinsic nature of the hands-on treatment of the Chiropractic profession, it is extremely important to understand what strategies chiropractors have put in place to address patient care, safety, and self report COVID contamination of those professionals.
