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 COVID-19 pandemic together with the strategies that are applied to control it are generating high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Its impact on health systems is worrisome, affecting all the population, even those who are not infected or at risk. The indirect impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the access to the medical care of patients on the waiting list for organ transplantation might be multifactorial, including the need to relocate health-related resources (medical personnel, supplies, critical care unit beds, etc), the risk of COVID-19 transmission among donors or patients on the waiting list, and also after transplantation. Additionally, the pandemic reduces significantly the donor pool. We consider that it is important to assess the impact that the pandemic has in particular individual populations, such as in patients requiring a liver transplant. Along with the lockdown, the rate of organ donation has dropped, and liver transplant programs across the world have reduced or suspended their activity. Unfortunately, this is invariably associated with an increase in mortality on the waiting list. Knowing the impact of the pandemic on patients who require a liver transplant will provide tools to understand and plan the health resources related to the care of these patients, not only at present but also in the following years.

The outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic may be considered a traumatic phenomenon. In a sample of subjects suffering from different psychiatric disorders, psychopathological status and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms over time are assessed using specific psychometric scales. In a sample of healthy controls PTSD symptoms are evaluated by Impact of Event Scale Revised (IES-R) and compared to patients' scores. We hypothesize that a significant number of psychiatric outpatients have experienced a clinical psychopathological worsening and a greater prevalence of PTSD symptoms compared to the general population. The study of the potential psychopathological changes could represent a useful contribution to deepen the understanding of psychological consequences of the pandemic.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) initially developed at the beginning of December 2019 in Whuan, Hubei province of China has spread all over the world. Beside the most common symptoms at onset of illness including fever, fatigue, dry cough, myalgia and dyspnoea, there are less common symptoms such as headache abdominal pain, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting. The proportion of patients complaining gastrointestinal symptoms is variable between 3,4% and 17,0%. Interestingly, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) RNA has been reported to be detectable in 50% of patients' stool samples and in these patients around the 50% had diarrhoea. SARS-CoV2 transmission has been reported to be through droplets. However, mounting evidence indicates that SARS-CoV2 has a tropism for the gastrointestinal tract and is excreted with faeces. Accordingly, a faecal-oral route of transmission of the virus has been recently postulated. Indeed, SARS-CoV2 binds to host ACE 2 receptors (ACE2) to entry into cells which are abundantly expressed by intestinal epithelial cells and regulate intestinal inflammation. Taken together, this evidence could provide a rational basis for the development of gastrointestinal symptoms reported by COVID19 infected patients. Primary aim: to evaluate the prevalence and prognosis of gastrointestinal symptoms in patients admitted to hospital for COVID19 disease Secondary aims 1. to evaluate long term consequences of COVID-19 on gastrointestinal symptoms 2. to evaluate long term consequences of COVID-19 on the development of post-infection irritable bowel syndrome (PI-IBS) 3. to evaluate long term consequences of COVID-19 on the development of post-infection dyspepsia 4. to assess the clinical and laboratory predictors (risk factors) of post-infection gastrointestinal symptom development

In this monocentric, prospective and descriptive trial we want to evaluate the long-term consequences for patients treated for Covid-19. Covid patients who were hospitalized for min. 5 days either in a Covid-19 department or in intensive care unit will be followed-up for 8 weeks after hospital discharge. This is done via an innovative electronic platform in the home environment (UZA@home). On the one hand the quality of life, rehabilitation and reintegration of the patient will be evaluated and on the other hand the patient will be screened for various psychosocial aspects such as anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress syndrome.
