COVID-19 Clinical Trials and Expanded Access

  1. Home

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.

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.

Minimal Invasive Autopsies to Investigate Changes in Deceased COVID-19 Patients

Conditions: COVID-19

Rationale In a very short time corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a pandemicwith high morbidity and mortality. The main cause of death is respiratory failureincluding acute respiratory distress syndrome, however the exact mechanisms and otherunderlying pathology is currently not yet known. In the current setting of the COVID-19pandemic complete autopsies seem too risky due to the risk of SARS CoV-2 transmission.Yet, as so little is known, additional histopathological, microbiological and virologicstudy of tissue of deceased COVID-19 patients will provide important clinical andpathophysiological information. Minimal invasive autopsy combined with postmortem imagingseems therefore an optimal method combining safety on the one hand yet provingsignificant information on the other.This study aims to determine the cause of death and attributable conditions in deceasedCOVID-19 patients. This will be performed using post-mortem CT-scanning plus CT-guidedMIA to obtain tissue for further histological, microbiological and pathologicaldiagnostics. In addition, the pathophysiology of COVID-19 will be examined by furthertissue analysis.
