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.

SARS-CoV-2 spreads rapidly throughout the world. A large epidemic would seriously challenge the available hospital capacity, and this would be augmented by infection of healthcare workers (HCW). Strategies to prevent infection and disease severity of HCW are, therefore, desperately needed to safeguard continuous patient care. Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is a vaccine against tuberculosis, with protective non-specific effects against other respiratory tract infections in in vitro and in vivo studies, and reported morbidity and mortality reductions as high as 70%. Furthermore, in our preliminary analysis, areas with existing BCG vaccination programs appear to have lower incidence and mortality from COVID191. The investigators hypothesize that BCG vaccination can reduce HCW infection and disease severity during the epidemic phase of SARS-CoV-2.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
This is a prospective adaptive cohort study of St. Jude employees to determine the rate of SARS-CoV-2 infections that are asymptomatic and to evaluate immunological responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Primary Objectives - To estimate the proportion of asymptomatic infection with SARS-CoV-2 infection in a population of SARS-CoV-2-naïve adult St. Jude employees - To comprehensively map CD4 and CD8 T cell epitopes and response magnitudes to SARS-CoV-2 infection in a population of SARS-CoV-2-naïve adult St. Jude employees who acquire SARS-CoV-2 infection - To measure changes in the CD4 and CD8 response magnitude and function to SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination in a population of St. Jude employees for up to 48 months after infection and/or vaccination. Secondary Objectives - To establish seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies at baseline, and identify the rate of seroconversion to SARS-CoV-2 in a population of presumably naïve adult St. Jude employees - To identify features of T cell responses at baseline and during SARS-CoV-2 infection that are associated with protection against symptomatic or severe COVID-19 disease in a population of adult St. Jude employees - To identify risk factors for long-term protection against COVID-19 in a population of adult St. Jude employees - To evaluate changes in antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 in a population of St. Jude employees for up to 48 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination. - To evaluate the saliva antibody and cytokine response to SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination and identify characteristics that predict protection from subsequent SARS-CoV-2 infection among a population of St. Jude employees followed for up to 48 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination. - To measure changes in saliva antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 for up to 48 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination. Exploratory Objectives - To establish additional immunological features including host immune or receptor polymorphisms associated with response to SARS-CoV-2 infection - To explore SARS-CoV-2 diversity and specific features in a circumscribed population - To describe the presence, characteristics, and proportion of short-term re-infection - To determine if an association between SARS-CoV-2 viral load in nasal swab specimens and COVID-19 symptoms can be identified in a population of adult St. Jude employees who acquire SARS-CoV-2 - To explore the laboratory and clinical response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in a population of adult St. Jude employees with and without a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection
Case Western Reserve University
The primary objective of this study is to provide expanded access of S-nitrosylation therapy for the treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) infection.
Johns Hopkins University
This is a a randomized double blind placebo controlled Phase 2 trial with a 12 patient lead-in to evaluate safety, prior to full enrollment to an additional 28 patients (for a total of 40 patients) to assess efficacy of decitabine in the treatment of critically ill patients with COVID-ARDS. The patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive standard of care plus Decitabine or standard of care plus saline based placebo. The primary objective is to determine safety and efficacy of decitabine for COVID-19 ARDS based on clinical improvement on a 6-point clinical scale.
Ospedale di Circolo - Fondazione Macchi
This is a retrospective/prospective, cohort, non-interventional observational study. This means that all patients with documented COVID and HM diagnosed between February 2020 and study initiation will compose the retrospective part, while those diagnosed after study approval will enter prospective part. The total duration of the study will be 12 months. The study population will must be older than 18 years of age with HM and SARS-CoV-2 infection. All patients with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID) and history or active hematological malignancies, who refer to any Hematological Unit will be included.
City of Hope Medical Center
Plasma from patients who have recovered from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is referred to as COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP), and may contain antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. CCP infusion is being evaluated as a therapeutic or prophylactic approach in COVID-19 patients. The goal of this study is to help develop a bank of convalescent plasma in California, especially in medically underserved communities particularly affected by the disease. In parallel, CCP administered to COVID-19 patients will be collected and analyzed to determine whether the antibody profile correlates with clinical outcome. The purpose of this non-therapeutic study is to learn more about the CCP antibody profile and the effect it may have in treating COVID-19 infection.
Instituto Materno Infantil Prof. Fernando Figueira
A prospective and retrospective cohort study. The objective will to determine the frequency of COVID-19 in pregnant and postpartum women hospitalized with flu syndrome, to evaluate clinical and laboratory predictors of COVID-19 progression and to determine the factors associated with adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes in healthcare centers in two states of Northeast Brazil.The study will be conducted including pregnant and postpartum women with clinical or laboratorial diagnosis of COVID-19, admitted in six healthcare centers in the Northeast of Brazil. All pregnant and postpartum women with clinical and/or diagnosis of COVID-19, attended in prenatal care, in emergency (maternity triage), high-risk pregnancy ward, obstetric intensive care unit and rooming-in ward will be included. The data will be collected in specific forms. The exams will be carried out by trained professionals within each institution.

The COVID-19 CHAMPS Study will obtain data on the physical and mental health and well-being of workers potentially exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the course of their duties. Included are a broad range of occupations including those working in the community (police officers, firefighters, emergency personnel, screening staff) as well as in permanent or temporary sites that care for patients (service staff, nurses, physicians and other health professionals). CHAMPS will obtain data on various exposure factors and health and create a registry of participants for extended follow up and sub-studies.
National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)
Background: People who get COVID-19 have a wide range of symptoms. They also recover from COVID-19 in different ways. In this study, researchers will use survey data to describe the different ways people experience and recover from COVID-19. They will also use the data to help create future studies to understand why some people do not fully recover. Objective: To learn more about the range and timing of symptoms that people have before, during, and after COVID-19 infection. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who can give documentation of a positive COVID-19 or antibody test. Design: Participants will be screened with a telephone interview. It will take 15 minutes. They will provide their COVID-19 test results and medical records. Participants will complete a second telephone interview. It will take 30 60 minutes. They will also take online surveys every 3 months for 3 years. The interview and surveys will ask participants about their health before they got COVID-19, what happened while they had COVID-19, and what their recovery has been like. Participants will get log-in data to take the online surveys. Completing all of the surveys the first time may take up to 3 hours. Follow-up surveys will take up to 30 minutes. Participants do not have to complete the surveys in one sitting. They will be able to save their progress and finish the surveys later. Participants may be contacted to take part in other research studies.
