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.

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.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak is now considered as a public health emergency of international concern by the World Health Organization. In the context of the health emergency, research on the pathogen (the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus), the disease and the therapeutic care is being organized. Research projects require the use of biological samples. This study aims at setting up a collection of biological samples intended for application projects in any discipline. The main objective of the study is to collect, process and store biological samples from patients and caregivers infected with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) at the biological ressources center of the Bordeaux University Hospital.

COVIDENCE UK is a population-based observational longitudinal study that has the following objectives: 1. To determine risk factors for incident COVID-19 and for adverse outcomes of COVID-19 in the UK population 2. To characterise the natural history of COVID-19 in the UK population 3. To evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on the physical and mental health of the UK population 4. To provide a resource from which to identify potential participants for future clinical trials, and to use data collected in COVIDENCE as comparison or control data for trial participants who have been randomised to receive one or more interventions.

The COntAGIouS trial (COvid-19 Advanced Genetic and Immunologic Sampling; an in-depth characterization of the dynamic host immune response to coronavirus SARS-CoV-2) proposes a transdisciplinary approach to identify host factors resulting in hyper-susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is urgently needed for directed medical interventions.

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that post-exposure prophylaxis with hydroxychloroquine will reduce the symptomatic secondary attack rate among household contacts of known or suspected COVID-19 patients.

In the current proposal, the investigators aim to investigate the virological and clinical effects of chloroquine treatment in patients with established COVID-19 in need of hospital admission. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to standard of care or standard of care with the addition of therapy with chloroquine.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic. Ontario has confirmed more than 547,000 cases of COVID-19 since testing began. For many of these patients, symptoms resolve within 4 weeks of onset. However, it is becoming apparent that a significant number of individuals are experiencing symptoms that persist long after the acute infection, known as Long COVID. These individuals have a wide constellation of presenting symptoms, often varying from initial presentation. For this study, we will be enrolling individuals receiving care at The Ottawa Hospital for Long COVID. This study aims to determine the following four things: 1) will adding electronic case management improve quality of life three months after coming to hospital with Long COVID; 2) is the electronic case management platform cost effective; 3) is there any factors that predict outcomes at 3 months; 4) to determine how a personalized rehabilitation program supported by a digital platform could be implemented for individuals with Long COVID. We will enroll individuals from The Ottawa Hospital who will then be randomly assigned to receive either usual care or usual care plus electronic case management, through a platform called NexJ Connected Wellness. Participants will also complete questionnaires every 4 weeks for 3 months. We will be looking at quality of life, mental and physical health, cognitive symptoms, fatigue and pain.

SARS-CoV2 is responsible for a pandemic that has been evolving for approximately 18 months. The virus' capacity for dissemination and its virulence are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality. The initial lack of knowledge of the pathogen and of the pathophysiology underlying the potential severity of the disease, particularly in the respiratory tract, led to numerous therapeutic attempts in this emergency context, centered on the control of an obviously exaggerated inflammatory response. A large number of studies remained of insufficient quality to lead to relevant and applicable conclusions. Secondly, the benefit of corticosteroid therapy has been demonstrated in two trials. Although Dexamethasone remains the only corticosteroid to improve survival, these results have reinforced the hypothesis of the interest of treatments reducing the inflammatory response, particularly cytokine. The widespread use, in the absence of scientific data, of interleukin-6 receptor inhibitors (Sarilumab and Tocilizumab) has been structured around studies whose results remain uncertain to this day because of the heterogeneity of the population treated and the results observed. A possible survival benefit seems to emerge for resuscitation patients who have not yet required invasive ventilation, the other situations being probably associated with the absence of effect or even the potential danger of this treatment. Tocilizumab is notably associated in the literature with the risk of secondary infections and mucosal healing abnormalities, favoring bleeding complications and digestive perforations. The objective of this study is to evaluate the risk of digestive complications (hemorrhage, perforation, diverticulitis) and infectious complications related to the use of Tocilizumab according to the severity of the patients.
