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.

Primary Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of sarilumab relative to the control arm in adult participants hospitalized with severe or critical Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Secondary Objectives: - Evaluate the 28-day survival rate. - Evaluate the clinical efficacy of sarilumab compared to the control arm by clinical severity. - Evaluate changes in the National Early Warning Score 2. - Evaluate the duration of predefined symptoms and signs (if applicable). - Evaluate the duration of supplemental oxygen dependency (if applicable). - Evaluate the incidence of new mechanical ventilation use during the study. - Evaluate the duration of new mechanical ventilation use during the Study. - Evaluate the proportion of participants requiring rescue medication during the 28-day period. - Evaluate need for admission into intensive care unit. - Evaluate duration of hospitalization (days). - The secondary safety objectives of the study were to evaluate the safety of sarilumab through hospitalization (up to Day 29 if participant was still hospitalized) compared to the control arm as assessed by incidence of: - Serious adverse events. - Major or opportunistic bacterial or fungal infections in participants with grade 4 neutropenia. - Grade greater than or equal to (>=) 2 infusion related reactions. - Grade >=2 hypersensitivity reactions. - Increase in alanine transaminase (ALT) >=3X upper limit of normal (ULN) (for participants with normal baseline) or greater than 3X ULN AND at least 2-fold increase from baseline value (for participants with abnormal baseline). - Major or opportunistic bacterial or fungal infections.

The ECLA PHRI COLCOVID Trial is a simple, pragmatic randomized open controlled trial to test the effects of colchicine on moderate/high-risk hospitalized COVID-19 patients with the aim of reducing mortality and/or new requirement for mechanical ventilation.

The clinical picture of the novel corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) disease (COVID-19) is rapidly evolving. Although infections may be mild, up to 25% of all patients admitted to hospital require admission to the intensive care unit, and as many as 40% will progress to develop severe problems breathing due to the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ARDS often requires mechanical ventilation, with a 50% risk of mortality. Researchers at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI) have been studying the potential therapeutic role of mesenchymal stromal/stem cells, or MSCs, for the treatment of ARDS for over a decade. This has led to the world's first clinical trial using MSC therapy for patients with severe infections (sepsis) which is often associated with ARDS (NCT02421484). This trial demonstrated tolerability, and potential signs of efficacy. In addition, the investigators have established expertise in producing clinical-grade MSCs and have received approval from Health Canada for the use of MSCs in three different clinical studies. This protocol consists of 2 sequential trials using the same trial infrastructure, noted as the Phase 1 trial 'CIRCA-1901' and the Phase 2a trial 'CIRCA-1902'. CIRCA-1901 is an open-label, dose-escalating and safety trial using a 3+3+3 design to determine the safety, and maximum feasible tolerated dose of repeated delivery of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (UC-MSC) intravenously. The investigators will enroll up to 9 patients; each receiving repeated unit doses of UC-MSCs delivered by IV infusion on each of 3 consecutive days (24±4 hours apart) according to the following dose-escalation schedule (3 patients per dose panel): (i) Panel 1: 25 million cells/unit dose (cumulative dose: 75 million MSCs), (ii) Panel 2: 50 million cells/unit dose (cumulative dose: 150 million MSCs), (iii) Panel 3: up to 90 million cells/unit dose (cumulative dose: up to 270 million MSCs). If no safety issues are identified, we will continue to the Phase 2a trial. CIRCA-1902 is a single-arm, open-label extension of the CIRCA-1901 trial to assess early signs of efficacy (major morbidity and mortality). The Phase 2a trial (CIRCA-1902) will enroll 12 patients to assess early signals of benefit on mortality and major morbidity in a high risk, high mortality population.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and the effect of COVID-19 on the microbiome (the microorganisms that live in and on the human body) in exposed household contacts of COVID-19. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, meaning subjects will be randomly assigned to receive LGG or a placebo (an inactive substance given in the same form as the active substance) and will not know which product they are receiving. Subjects will participate in the study for around 60 days. All subjects must refrain from taking any other probiotics while on study. All subjects must have access to e-mail and the internet to complete study questionnaires. Participation in this study entails taking LGG/placebo for 28 days, responding to questionnaires, and providing stool and nasal swab samples.

Internet-based health promotion programs have the potential to reach more individuals than in person interventions, without overtaxing healthcare resources. Having a high quality, user-centered web-based program can help maximize user engagement and adherence. Thus, the primary objective of this pilot study is to examine the feasibility, time, cost, and acceptability of a web-based physical activity behavior change program with Canadian Adults who have had to start practising/following the social distancing guidelines due to the COVID-19 situation. We will also be examining changes other behavioral indicators related to PA as a secondary outcome measure.
