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.

Covid 19 is a pandemic infection developed in late 2019

While "conditioning" by exercise training has been widely evaluated, the available literature on "passive deconditioning" (i.e. forced deconditioning) is predominately limited to studies with or with almost complete mechanical and/or metabolic immobilization/sedation of the respective functional system (e.g. paralysis, bedriddenness). Vice versa, the effects of moderately long interruptions of dedicated types of exercise while maintaining everyday activity are rarely addressed. However, this topic is of high relevance, e.g. considering that breaks of health-related exercise programs due to increased family/occupational stress, vacation or temporary orthopedic limitation are rather frequent in everyday life. In the present project we aimed to determine the effects of 3 months of physical deconditioning due to COVID-19 induced lockdown after 13 month of high intensity endurance and resistance exercise in early postmenopausal women on parameters related to health and physical fitness.

The RT-PCR on rhino-pharynge sampling highlights the genetic material of the virus and indicates that a subject is infected with SARS-CoV-2. This test can be in about 30% of false negative cases, it does not allow to date the infection, nor to predict the asymptomatic, mild, moderate or severe evolution of the disease. In terms of public health, we need 1/ to better understand the chronology of the immune response to the virus in the general population and in contacts of index cases; 2/ To know which characteristics of the immune response are protective of future reinfections. Finally, in symptomatic subjects, we need biomarkers that predict the evolutionary mode of the disease (moderate vs. severe form).

The prevalence and typical patterns of neurological complications in hospitalized COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care units of the University Hospital Zurich will be investigated. The impact of neurological complications among COVID-19 patients on mortality, functional outcome, and organizational outcomes will be analyzed.

The actual worldwide context (disease outbreak, confinements instaured in many countries) is a stressful factor for many people. It can have consequences on mental health : separation from loved ones, loss of freedom, uncertainty about infection status, boredom. Patients with mental disorders are especially vulnerable. On march 17th, the french government ordonned a national confinement to slow the progression of the COVID-19 outbreak, for 15 days at first then renewed several times. This situation has led to a reorganization of care as requested on March 22nd, 2020 in the recommendations applicable to the organization of care in psychiatric services : priority to telephone contacts and teleconsultation by multiplying contacts and assessments. By the time the reorganization of care became operational, the most vulnerable patients may have experienced a decompensation of their disease. It is important to know if the COVID-19 outbreak combined with the confinement increased the number of unvoluntary commitment the month after the announce of the confinement. This could help us understand which patients are more vulnerable is this context, and improve our organization (ambulatory and hospitalization care) if this situation occurs again.

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei, China, and now spreads across international borders. As of 11 April 2020, the total global number of confirmed SARS-CoV-2 cases reached 1,521,252 (92,798 deaths); with 65,081 (7,978 deaths) being reported in the United Kingdom. COVID-19 is the name of the disease associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and includes a spectrum of illness that ranges from mild infection to severe pneumonia that can progress to respiratory failure and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) or septic shock. Between 8 to 15% (depending on geographical setting) of all SARS-CoV-2 positive cases can be classified as severe or necessitating intensive care unit (ICU) admission. In the early stages of the outbreak unfolding, several retrospective case studies and cases series carried out in China reported that those who died were more likely to be male, and more likely to have underlying comorbidities. Prevalence studies conducted in the US and Italy show similar trends in the distribution of comorbidities among SARS-CoV-2 severe cases; adding obesity (BMI>30) to the list of factors potentially associated with disease severity. However, the relative importance of different underlying health conditions remains unclear owing to inadequate adjustment for important confounding factors such as age, sex, and smoking status. We propose a cohort study to evaluate predictors, clinical evolution and excess of mortality of SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalised patients, with two main workstreams- the first looking at all patients admitted to SGHFT and the second looking at patients admitted to ITU with respiratory failure.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficiency of an assembled modified mask in protecting health care workers against Coronavirus in case of any personal protective equipment shortage. At least 20 healthy participants will be recruited to try the modified mask. The modified masks will be made from masks that are already available as well as filters available in the pulmonary department at the Oklahoma City VA Health Care System
