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.

Coronavirus-2019 disease (COVID-19) and community-acquired pneumonia are significant problems of modern medicine. Pneumonia is the most common severe complication of COVID-19. But at the same time, COVID-19 is not the only cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Moreover, pneumonia is only one of the numerous possible severe complications of COVID-19. Medical centers specialized for the hospital treatment of patients with severe COVID-19 and community-acquired pneumonia were organized in different regions of Russia during coronavirus pandemic-2020. The indications for hospitalization to one of these centers based in the National Medical and Surgical Center (NMSC) are: confirmed or suspected severe COVID-19 or community-acquired pneumonia. A prospective medical registry of such patients hospitalized to NMSC, is intended to analyze and compare their clinical and instrumental data, co-morbidity, treatment, short-term and long-term outcomes in real clinical practice. Stage 1. Hospital treatment in NMSC Duration of this stage: from the date of admission to the hospital up to the date of discharge from the hospital / or up to the date of death during the reference hospitalization. The date of admission to the hospital will be the date of enrollment to the study. Evaluation of electronic health record data using the Medical Information System (MIS). Assessment of the outcomes of the hospital phase (discharge from the hospital, death) and significant events (acute respiratory and pulmonary failure, requiring mechanical ventilation; cardiovascular events - myocardial infarction, cerebral stroke, acute heart failure, paroxysmal heart rhythm disturbances, bleedings, thrombosis of large vessels and thromboembolic complications). A survey of patients to clarify data on risk factors, somatic diseases, and drug therapy before hospitalization. COVID-19 was diagnosed when severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection was confirmed by Polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Pneumonia was confirmed according to computerized tomography (CT) data. Stage 2. Prospective outpatient follow-up for 24 months Duration of this stage: 24 months after discharge from the hospital This work will be delivered by investigators from the National Medical Research Center for Therapy and Preventive Medicine. Evaluation of long-term outcomes and events among residents of Moscow and the Moscow Region according to a patient survey (contact by phone for 30-60 days, 6 months, 12 and 24 months after discharge from the hospital) and medical records.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of atypical emerging pneumonia. The clinical spectrum varies from an asymptomatic or mild illness to a serious illness with a high risk of mortality. The most severely affected patients (5%) present an acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), requiring assistance with mechanical ventilation in intensive care. In 2003, persistent lung damage was observed in a third of patients in a Singaporean cohort one year after SARS-CoV infection. A Chinese study showed that 27.3% of their SARS-CoV patients presented a decreased carbon monoxide diffusion (DLCO) and 21.5% of pulmonary fibrosis lesions. Due to the very recent emergence of SARS-CoV-2, no data is currently available of long-term outcome of these patients. However, recent publications including short-term CT monitoring suggest the genesis of fibrotic pulmonary parenchymal sequelae. In view of these data, the investigators can fear the occurrence of pulmonary sequelae in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. It is therefore essential to evaluate the evolution of the respiratory status of the most severe patients who have had a stay in intensive care with respiratory assistance.

To evaluate pulmonary changes and the results of a cardiopulmonary rehabilitation protocol (CPRP) in patients after SARS-VOC-2 infection. Clinical trial type study to be conducted between 2020 and 2024 involving clinical-functional cardiopulmonary imaging and blood transcriptome profile: before CPRP (T1), 2 months after CPRP (T2) and 1 year later (T3). Expected results: a) clinical, image and transcriptome changes; b) clinical-functional improvement after CPRP.
Sykehuset Telemark
Through SARS-CoV-2 IgG testing of PCR positive and negative cases the study will follow the COVID-19 immune response by monitoring the SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody levels over a period of two years. Further, risk factors will be identified by the use of the test-negative design including population controls, allowing comparison of participants with positive and negative tests, and with population controls (triangulation). Special emphasis will be on high risk groups in general and on different occupational, environmental and socio-economic groups in particular. Finally, severity of illness, deaths and the use of health care during will be assessed using national register data from Telemark and Agder.
GeoVax, Inc.
This phase I trial evaluates the side effects and best dose of GEO-CM04S1 (previously designated as COH04S1), a synthetic modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, for the prevention of COVID-19 infection. COVID-19 infection is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. SARS-CoV-2 has demonstrated the capability to spread rapidly, leading to significant impacts on healthcare systems and causing societal disruption. GEO-CM04S1 was created by placing small pieces of SARS-CoV-2 DNA (the chemical form of genes) into synthetic MVA, which may be able to induce immunity (the ability to recognize and fight against an infection) to SARS-CoV-2. The purpose of the Phase 1 study is to determine the safety and the optimal dose of the GEO-CM04S1 vaccine. The Phase 2 study is designed as a multi-center, double-blind, randomized, parallel, study to evaluate the safety profile of 2 dose levels of GEO-CM04S1 as a single booster shot to assess the immune response measured by the fold-increase in antibody against SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein at day 28 post-injection among healthy adult volunteers.

COVID-19 is associated with increased mortality, and has been linked to a 'cytokine inflammatory storm'. Populations at higher risk of COVID complications and mortality include the elderly, diabetic patients and immunocompromised patients (such as HIV), and the investigators have studied these 3 populations over the past 20 years and have found that they all have deficiency of the endogenous antioxidant protein glutathione (GSH), elevated oxidative stress, inflammation, impaired mitochondrial function, immune dysfunction, and endothelial dysfunction. It is known and established that GSH adequacy is necessary for neutralizing harmful oxidative stress, and that elevated oxidative stress appears to promote mitochondrial dysfunction. The combination of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction have also been linked to inflammation, immune dysfunction, and endothelial dysfunction. In prior studies in aging, the investigators have also identified that supplementing glutathione precursor amino-acids glycine and cysteine (provided as N-acetylcysteine) improves GSH deficiency and mitochondrial function, and lowers oxidative stress, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction. The investigators have coined the term GlyNAC to refer to the combination of glycine and N-acetylcysteine. This study will evaluate the prevalence and extent of these defects in patients with COVID-19 admitted to the hospital, and the response to supplementing GlyNAC or placebo for 2-weeks. Because patients with COVID-19 are also being reported to have fatigue and cognitive impairment, the investigators will also measure fatigue and cognition at admission, 1-week and 2-weeks after beginning supplementation. The supplementation is stopped after completing 2-weeks, and these outcomes will be measured again after 4-weeks and 8-weeks after stopping supplementation.
