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.

The 2019-2020 COVID-19 pandemic is the largest outbreak in recent history. It is notknown how long after someone gets sick with COVID-19 and recovers that they can stillinfect other people. It is also not known how quickly people make antibodies against thevirus, which help clear infection from the body. The investigators will enroll 300 peoplewho had COVID-19 based on lab testing or confirmed exposure to participate. An additional25 participants who have never tested positive for COVID and have not had the vaccinewill be enrolled as negative controls. Participants will complete a survey at enrollment.The investigators will also collect blood, nose swab, saliva, stool, semen, and breastmilk to test for the virus. The investigators will ask participants to complete a surveyand give specimens up to 12 times over 24 months. This information will be used to studyhow long the virus can live in different parts of the body, antibody development, andpost-infectious complications. The investigators hope that this information will allowmedical and public health providers to make recommendations to better care for patientsin the convalescent phase of COVID-19 infection.

To perform comprehensive cardiac and thoracic non invasive imaging assessment by MRIand/or CT scan including cardiac functional evaluation and myocardial tissuecharacterization of COVID_19 related disease in pediatric patients with cardiacinvolvement.
Instituto Materno Infantil Prof. Fernando Figueira
A prospective and retrospective cohort study. The objective will to determine thefrequency of COVID-19 in pregnant and postpartum women hospitalized with flu syndrome, toevaluate clinical and laboratory predictors of COVID-19 progression and to determine thefactors associated with adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes in healthcare centers intwo states of Northeast Brazil.The study will be conducted including pregnant andpostpartum women with clinical or laboratorial diagnosis of COVID-19, admitted in sixhealthcare centers in the Northeast of Brazil. All pregnant and postpartum women withclinical and/or diagnosis of COVID-19, attended in prenatal care, in emergency (maternitytriage), high-risk pregnancy ward, obstetric intensive care unit and rooming-in ward willbe included. The data will be collected in specific forms. The exams will be carried outby trained professionals within each institution.

Low doses of radiation in the form of chest x-rays has been in the past to treat peoplewith pneumonia. This treatment was thought to reduce inflammation and was found to beeffective without side effects. However, it was an expensive treatment and was eventuallyreplaced with less expensive treatment options like penicillin.The COVID-19 virus has emerged recently, causing high rates of pneumonia in people. Theauthors believe that giving a small dose of radiation to the lungs may reduceinflammation and neutralize the pneumonia caused by COVID-19. For this study, the x-raygiven is called radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high-energy X-ray beams from alarge machine to target the lungs and reduce inflammation. Usually, it is given at muchhigher doses to treat cancers.The purpose of this study is to find out if adding a single treatment of low-dose x-raysto the lungs might reduce the amount of inflammation in the lungs from COVID-19infection, which could reduce the need for a ventilator or breathing tube.
Chinese University of Hong Kong
The objectives of this proposal are to: 1) determine the rate of SARS-CoV-2seroconversion in unselected pregnant women in Hong Kong; 2) determine the rate ofSARS-CoV-2 infection in women presenting with miscarriage and stillbirth; 3) follow thepregnancy course and perinatal outcome of confirmed COVID-19-infected pregnant cases; 4)determine the risk and characteristics of vertical transmission; and 5) evaluate theplacental barrier, immune response and fetal damage in vertical transmission ofSARS-CoV-2. A series of longitudinal and cross-sectional observational studies, and alaboratory-based study will be conducted to fulfil the 5 objectives.

Low doses of radiation in the form of chest X-rays have been used to treat people withpneumonia. This treatment was found to be effective by reducing inflammation and withminimal side effects. However, it was an expensive treatment and was eventually replacedwith less costly treatments such as antibiotics. Radiation has also been shown in someanimal experiments to reduce some types of inflammation.Some patients diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia will experience worsening disease, whichcan become very serious, requiring the use of a ventilator. This is caused byinflammation in the lung from the virus and the immune system. For this study, the x-raygiven is called radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high-energy X-ray beams from alarge machine to target the lungs and reduce inflammation. Usually, it is given at muchhigher doses to treat cancers.The purpose of this study is to find out if adding a single treatment of low-dose x-raysto the lungs might reduce the amount of inflammation in the lungs from a COVID-19infection, which could help a patient to breathe without use of a ventilator.

This is a prospective observational cohort study that will define the prevalence andincidence of CA-SARS-Cov2 infection using serological and PCR tests in a group ofsubjects during deconfinement. The team wishes to include approximately 1000 subjects inthis study.The health crisis through containment has also created unprecedented environmentalconditions with the very clear decrease in economic activities and a consequent decreasein exposure to the main air pollutants. The aim is therefore to carry out a case-controlstudy in which each subject will be his or her own control in unexposed condition (toPM2.5, PM10, NO...) then exposed (after the recovery of economic activity and the usuallevels of air pollutants) and to measure the impact of these pollutants on the immunesystem and epigenetic markers taking into account seasonality.The occurrence of infectious, cardiovascular, allergic and autoimmune events will then bemeasured according to the immunological profiles measured at inclusion.
