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 is a multi-center, randomized controlled, superiority, open label trial. The objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of HCQ in patients with newly diagnosed COVID-19 who have mild to moderate disease or at risk for complications. We aim to demonstrate decrease in progression to severe pneumonia and hospital related complications among patients who are treated with HCQ compared to patients who are not.

Investigational medications adjunct to clinical standard of care treatment will be assessed to evaluate safety and effectiveness as an anti-COVID-19 treatment. All hospitalized persons with moderate to severe COVID-19 disease that meet eligibility criteria will be offered participation.

Acute lung injury represents the most severe form of the viral infection sustained by coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) also named as SARS-CoV-2, a new virus emerged in December 2019 in Wuhan (China). The diagnosis is clinical and patients develop flu-like syndrome with fever and cough; patients with clinical symptoms can perform a swab test, including molecular and/or antigen swab, for diagnosis of positivity to Covid-19. Even if diagnosis and treatment are well described, to date, this viral pandemic infection induces an increased mortality in the world. The aim of the present project is to evaluate specific biomarkers that could be used for patient stratification and for tailor therapy in COVID-19 infected patients.
Bellerophon Therapeutics
This randomized, controlled trial will assess the efficacy and safety of pulsed iNO in subjects with COVID-19 who are hospitalized and require supplemental oxygen.
Versailles Hospital
the purpose of the study is to study the detection of SARS-Cov-2 virus in the conjunctiva of covid-19 patients and the presence or absence of conjunctivitis in these patients

This is a phase 1b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adult subjects with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). This clinical trial will evaluate the preliminary safety and efficacy of BM-Allo.MSC vs placebo in treating subjects with severe disease requiring ventilator support during COVID 19 infection.

COVID-19 patients with a severely symptomatic progression with development of an Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to SARS-CoV-2 need prolonged intensive care treatment involving pharmacological immobilization, sedation and mechanical ventilation, leaving them at a very high risk for developing Critical illness myopathy (CIM). CIM is associated with increased mortality and significant consequences for recovery and the ability to return to normal daily life. Up to date, there are no studies investigating the mid- or long-term course of the novel COVID-19 disease. The present study therefore aims to evaluate the clinical outcome of patients with ARDS due to SARS-CoV-2 with special attention to the development of CIM and its underlying causes. To provide the possibility of early diagnosis of CIM, critically ill patients will be regularly screened for muscle membrane alterations using (Muscle velocity recovery cycles) MRVC measurements. The primary endpoint is the incidence of CIM in patients with ARDS due to SARS-CoV-2, diagnosed according to the current diagnostic criteria.

Sars-Cov2 has been found in the digestive tract, as well as the respiratory tract. Protection of health care workers during surgery has been increased and some guidelines advocate for abandoning laparoscopy in COVID19 patients for fear of contamination, evenghtough this does not benefit the patient. However, Sars-Cov2 contamination risk during visceral surgery remains unknown. Inadequate protection is unnecessary costful and can be inefficient if too binding. Our hypotheses are that 1) Sars-Cov 2 can travel through droplet and air during visceral surgery. 2) Laparoscopy, because of the pneumoperitoneum and its leaks, warrant more air contamination whereas laparotomy warrant more droplet contamination, which would justified increased protection.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an acute respiratory syndrome. It is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. People with severe COVID-19 infection have a hyper-inflammatory response. Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) plays a role in the innate immune system. BTK inhibition can be used to target the innate immune system that appears to contribute to mortality. This could be an effective way to help the inflammatory responses in people with COVID-19. Objective: To learn more about the immunologic mechanisms by which BTK inhibition may decrease hyper-inflammatory responses in people with COVID-19. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older in one of the following groups: - They are in the hospital with COVID-19. They will or will not be treated with a BTK inhibitor. - They do not have COVID-19. They are or are not in the hospital. They will be treated with a BTK inhibitor for a reason other than COVID-19. Design: Participants will be screened with a review of their demographic and clinical information. Their medical history will be reviewed. If they have COVID-19, their symptoms will be assessed. Participants will give 3-4 blood samples. These may be taken through a vein. They may also be taken through an existing central venous catheter. Participants may give a stool sample. This will be collected by nursing staff. It will be collected using a stool collection vial. Stool collection is optional. Participants samples will be collected over about 7 days. These will be used for research and genetic testing.
