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.

Infections with Corona-Viruses have shown to be a menace for patients with comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease or immunosuppression. Those are features almost every nephrological patient brings along, especially those on maintenance dialysis and those with renal transplant. Since the emergence of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in November 2019 in Mainland China the fear for pandemic infections has increased. But not only is the course of infection itself important, the prevention of transmission to and by attending medical personnel should be put into perspective. Thus there is a lack of sufficient data of occult immunization or persistent state on immunization. In our study up to 400 health care personnel will be screened serologically for IgM, IgA and IgG against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Blood and urine samples throughout 12 months will be sampled and analyzed. The aim of the study is to identify the rate of occult immunization and at the same time to gather data about the persistence of immune response to an infection with SARS-CoV-02. The results will help provide sufficient safety measures for health care providers and renal patients undergoing unavoidable clinical treatment.
University Hospital, Montpellier
Double blinded randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine combined with azithromycin compared to hydroxychloroquine monotherapy in patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19 pneumonia.
G. d'Annunzio University
The aim of this study is to assess the virus RNA, and miRNA levels related to viral infection, and inflammatory response in tears of hospitalized patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19 with and without conjunctivitis and to correlate them with clinical condition. Tears will be collected by using Schirmer Test I, a non invasive painless test which can be performed at the patient's bed. Tears will be collected on the graduated paper strips pulling the lower lid gently downward for 5 minutes. Following, the strip will be placed in a 2.0 mL Eppendorf tube and stored at -80◦C (or - 20°C)
Hackensack Meridian Health
The Hackensack Meridian Health Universal Observational COVID-19, a descriptive observational database, is a multi-center initiative collecting data throughout the Hackensack Meridian Health Network (HMH). HMH utilizes the EPIC system at most of the facilities, which will serve as the primary data source. The database will be designed within the REDCap system. A de-identified dataset will be sent to COTA for primary statistical analysis as requested by the research teams.

In absence of vaccine and medications specifically designed to treat SARS-CoV-2 disease, identifying treatment options is critical at this time to control the disease outbreak. For this, we have designed a phase II trial of efficacy and safety with 3 branches of different combinations of treatment to identify which is the best early treatment option for patients with pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) Identifying treatment options as early as possible is critical to the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak response. Currently, there is no approved vaccine for the disease and the treatments being used are not specifically designed for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, but are different groups of drugs used for other pathologies with mechanisms of action that justify their use because they inhibit entry of the virus into virus cells or proteases. The study aims to compare Imatinib 400mg, Baricitinib 4mg or supportive treatment, administered for 7 days in the setting of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia treatment. Patients who meet inclusion criteria and do not have any exclusion criteria will be randomized to receive open treatment 1:1:1
Bristol-Myers Squibb
This study is for patients that are hospitalized for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The purpose of this study is to see whether neutralizing interleukin-8 (IL-8) with BMS-986253 can help improve the health condition of participants infected with COVID-19. This is the first in-human study of this investigational product specifically in patients with severe COVID-19. Currently there are no FDA approved medications that improve the chance of survival in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. However there are usual treatments currently being used to help treat COVID-19 patients and BMS-986253 will be compared to these standard of care treatments in this study.

The purpose of this study is to determine if a CGRP receptor antagonist may potentially blunt the severe inflammatory response at the alveolar level, delaying or reversing the path towards oxygen desaturation, Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), requirement for supplemental oxygenation, artificial ventilation or death in patients with COVID-19 on supplemental oxygen. * BHV-3500, formerly "vazegepant", is now referred to as "zavegepant" (za ve' je pant). The World Health Organization (WHO) International Nonproprietary Names (INN) Expert Committee revised the name to "zavegepant" which was accepted by the United States Adopted Names (USAN ) Council for use in the U.S. and is pending formal adoption by the INN for international use.

The research aim to collect large samples of COVID-19 disease patients with clinical symptoms, laboratory and imaging examination data. Screening the biological indicators which are related to the occurrence of severe diseases. Then, investigators using artificial intelligence (AI) technology deep learning method to find a prediction model that can dynamically quantify COVID-19 disease severity.

The clinical study aims at assessing whether early administration of Tocilizumab compared to late administration of Tocilizumab can reduce the number of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia who require mechanical ventilation. The clinical study includes patients with recent-onset COVID-19 pneumonia who require hospital care, but not invasive or semi-invasive mechanical ventilation procedures.
