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.

In late 2019, a novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, was identified as the causative agent of a cluster of pneumonia cases (COVID-19) in Wuhan, China. Clinical symptoms of COVID-19 may be mild or severe. The location where a person will self-isolate will be determined by their healthcare provider and their health authority. When determining the location, several factors to determine the suitability of the home setting are described as the case should stay in a room of their own so that they can be isolated from other household members. The rapid increase and evolution of modern mobile applications for communication and messaging for personal purposes have proved great benefit in healthcare management

According to the ongoing observational studies and the Chinese Medicine practice guideline for COVID-19 patients, the discharged patients with COVID-19 still exhibits certain clinical symptoms such as fatigue, poor appetite, short of breath, palpation, and poor sleep, which could be recognized as two main Patterns in Chinese Medicine, Qi Deficiency of Lung and Spleen and Qi & Yin Deficiency. Based on this, pulmonary rehabilitation to improve lung function upon discharged was proposed. Therefore, even patients with COVID-19 were discharged from hospitals, there are symptoms with significant clinical syndromes in Chinese Medicine perspectives. These symptoms, in terms of syndrome, which could link with the body constitutions, could be due to pre-COVID-19 infection, suffering from infection, or a consequence of post-infection. This observational study is a rehabilitation programme to elucidate i) whether body constitution is linking with the infection of COVID-19; ii) whether TCM can help the recovery of discharged COVID-19 patients.
Bicetre Hospital
In this prospective longitudinal cohort the investigators reported the clinical, and biological characteristics of all critically ill patients admitted in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of Bicêtre Hospital during the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemics. Patients were older than 37 weeks of gestational age. No upper limit was set as the unit was transiently converted into a pediatric "adult COVID-19" intensive care unit.

In this prospective observational study, a quantitative and qualitative analysis of antibiotic prescriptions for presumed respiratory tract (super)infection in patients hospitalized on COVID-19 wards will be made. Drivers of antibiotic prescription for presumed respiratory tract infection in patients suspected of being infected with COVID-19 or with definite COVID-19 infections will be identified.

Background: There are no proven therapies specific for pulmonary dysfunction in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) caused by infections (including Covid-19). The full spectrum of AHRF ranges from mild respiratory tract illness to severe pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multiorgan failure, and death. The efficacy of corticosteroids in AHRF and ARDS caused by infections remains controversial. Methods: This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial testing dexamethasone in mechanically ventilated adult patients with established AHRF (including ARDS) caused by confirmed pulmonary or systemic infections, admitted in a network of Spanish ICUs. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive dexamethasone: either 6 mg/d x 10 days or 20 mg/d x 5 days followed by 10 mg/d x 5 days. The primary outcome is 60-day mortality. The secondary outcome is the number of ventilator-free days at 28 days. All analyses will be done according to the intention-to-treat principle.

Covid-19 is associated with the onset of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies; in a majority of patients, neutralizing antibodies are detected. However, the long-term persistence of such protective antibodies is not known. The investigators will explore patients with a proven Covid-19 (positive PCR) 6 and 12 months after the diagnosis to determine whether neutralizing antibodies are still detected. The investigators will determine whether this persistance varies according to - the severity of the Covid-19 - a treatment by steroids during the covid-19. This will help to anticipate whether a second wave of infection is possible in a non-naive population.

Recent observations have suggested a role of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in the pathophysiology of severe COVID-19. The aim of the study is to assess efficacy and safety of aerosolized DNase I to remove NETs and decrease respiratory distress in patients with COVID-19.

A two arm open label multi-centered randomized interventional trial is proposed to assess aspects of safety and efficacy of Nuvastatic™ (Serial No: C5OSEW5050ESA) . Two parallel groups of (1:1) ratio comparing Nuvastatic™ versus standard care will be conducted on patients on oxygen saturation (SaO2) of 94% or less while they are breathing ambient air or a ratio of the partial pressure of oxygen (Pao2) to the fraction of inspired oxygen (Fio2) (PaO2:FiO2) at or below 300 mg Hg. Primary Outcome Measures: time to clinical improvement, defined as the time from randomization to an improvement of two points (from the status at randomization) on a seven-category ordinal scale or live discharge from the hospital, whichever comes first. Secondary Outcome Measures: Clinical status as assessed with the seven-category ordinal scale on days 7 and 14, mortality at day 28. 1. The duration of mechanical ventilation. 2. The duration of hospitalization in survivors. 3. The time (in days) from treatment initiation to death. 4. Virologic measures included the proportions with viral RNA detection over time and viral RNA titer area under-curve (auc) measurements.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome induced by the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been declared a worldwide pandemic. Identifying common characteristics of the disease is crucial to promote a better prognosis for patients and to reduce the occurrence of medical complications, the time to medical discharge and mortality rates. Muscle mass and strength are recognized predictive measures of medical complications and mortality in different populations, but it is still unclear whether these also applies to patients with SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, this study will investigate whether muscle mass and/or muscle strength are predictors of the time until medical discharge of patients hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2. Our working hypothesis is that muscle mass and/or muscle strength are predictive measurements of the time until medical discharge of patients hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2
