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.

This study will provide access to investigational anti-SARS-CoV-2 human convalescent plasma for pediatric patients with underlying medical conditions (cardiovascular disease, lung disease, immunosuppression) who are either infected with SARS-CoV-2 or who have had a high-risk exposure. Study participants will be transfused once with compatible convalescent plasma obtained from an individual who has recovered from documented infection with SARS-CoV-2. Safety information and pharmacokinetic data will be collected.
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 objectives of this intermediate-size expanded access protocol are to assess the safety and efficacy of remestemcel-L in participants with MIS-C associated with COVID-19.

The vast majority of individuals with Covid19 have mild illness that can be managed in the outpatient setting. A small but significant number of these people will deteriorate and require hospitalization. Symptoms are a poor - and possibly late - indicator for deterioration. While people who have died, and/or been cared for in the ICU or hospital have been well characterized, there remains a dearth of information about the clinical course of people in the outpatient setting. Most notably, it is not known when to escalate to hospital care. The consequence of non-escalation when needed is significant patient morbidity and mortality, of escalation when not needed is unnecessarily overwhelmed hospitals. Technologies for clinical management and early diagnostics for severe Covid19 infection will address this challenge. The research goal of this study is to use real-time remote patient monitoring to detect which patients with Covid19 are at risk of deterioration to bring to hospital, while at the same ensuring the worried will receive reassurance so they stay at home. The clinical goal is to help clinicians provide excellent care using ubiquitous mobile phones.

This study project includes a single-arm phase 2 study and a parallel cohort study, enrolling patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.

The spectrum of the COVID-19 disease ranges from benign to asymptomatic to viral pneumopathy that can progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The host-pathogen relationships and the physiopathological mechanisms underlying the clinical aggravation of COVID-19 patients remain misunderstood. The project aim is to create a prospective cohort of biological samples collected from well characterized COVID-19 patients. This project aims first to identify based on these samples an early immune signature predictive of clinical worsening of COVID-19 patients in order to improve their management, and secondarily to better understand pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the different phases of the disease in order to identify innovative therapeutic targets and vaccine perspectives.

Our long-term goal is to protect the health care workforce (HCW) caring for SARS-CoV-2-infected patients, their families, communities, and the general population. Our specific objective is to rapidly establish a prospective cohort to characterize the factors related to viral transmission and disease severity in a large healthcare system. We addressed this hypothesis by recruiting and longitudinally following 546 HCW and a comparison group of 283 non-HCW within a large academic health system, Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences (RBHS). By intensively following participants over a several year period (2020-2024) and collecting serial biospecimens (nasopharyngeal/throat swabs, blood, and saliva) and questionnaire data at multiple time points, we will uniquely characterize SARS-CoV-2 transmission and risk factors for COVID-19 among HCW and our larger academic community.
Mayo Clinic
The purpose of this study is to test whether Fisetin, a senolytic drug, can assist in preventing an increase in the disease's progression and alleviate complications of coronavirus due to an excessive inflammatory reaction.
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)
This is a randomized, open label, adaptive platform trial to compare the effectiveness of antithrombotic and additional strategies for prevention of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 positive inpatients
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.
