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 neurocritical care, besides the standard intensive care monitoring, even more data are obtained from the very complex pathophysiological changes in brain disease. Medical staff for decision-making cannot integrate the huge amount of clinical data generated every second and visualized on different monitors, anymore. Lack of data integration and usability is a major reason that only few of the knowledge physicians use in this field is evidence based. Early warning systems, powered by predictive algorithms that detect critical states before they happen would allow the staff to intervene early and mitigate or even prevent such a critical state.

During the Corona Virus Pandemic health care resources have become scare, and the pandemic has brought forth the need for risk stratification of patients suffering from COVID19 in order to allocate resources appropriately. One of scarcest resources is Intensive Care treatment, mostly related to the need for invasive ventilation or for (post) cardiac arrest care. To identify patients for whom ICU-treatment is most successful and those for whom it would be futile, would allow for installing appropriate advanced care directives for escalation or limitation of treatment.
Iran University of Medical Sciences
The aim of this study is to investigate efficacy of internet based pulmonary rehabilitation and progressive muscle relaxation program on functional capacity, depression and anxiety, dyspnea, fatigue, sleep quality and quality of life in covid19 patients after hospital discharge

Nursing homes have long faced special challenges in implementing effective infection prevention programs, including limited resources and diagnostic challenges in a frail functionally disabled long-stay population. Advancing our understanding of the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 within these facilities for vulnerable populations deserves urgent and further investigation. Environmental contamination with SARS-CoV-2 that is reported in limited studies highlights the potential importance of transmission between patients, their environment, and healthcare providers via direct and indirect contact. This study seeks to characterize the epidemiology of SARS-CoV- 2 in the NH patient room environment over time and the risk of transmission to near and far environments, with the explicit intent of developing integrated, simple COVID-19 infection prevention strategies that can be reported to and implemented throughout other nursing homes and long-term care facilities.

This is a randomized, open-label, controlled, Phase II proof of concept study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of S-1226 in which hospitalized subjects (n≤30) with moderate severity COVID-19 Bronchiolitis/Pneumonia will be enrolled. The safety and tolerability of S-1226 composed of PFOB with ascending doses of carbon dioxide (4%, 8%, and 12% CO2) administered twice daily will be assessed subjects in hospitalized subjects with moderate severity COVID-19 Bronchiolitis/Pneumonia.

Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of a Single Dose of STI-2020 (COVI-AMG™) to Treat COVID-19
Subjects will receive a single injection of 40, 100, or 200 mg COVI-AMG or placebo via IV push.
Stanford University
This study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of treatment with related donor Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) matched or haploidentical allogeneic T regulatory cells in patients with COVID 19 induced ARDS. Study treatment will be administered in 1 to 2 doses, with the possibility of a second infusion given 14 days after the initial infusion.

This study investigates the safety, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and efficacy of a single injection of COVI-AMG in outpatient adults with mild COVID-19 symptoms.

COVID -19, first reported in Wuhan, China, strikes the world hard as a pandemic by spreading up to 213 countries. Bangladesh is also facing its havoc with the death of 3000 among 229,185 cases at its 141st day. Most are mild cases presenting with influenza-like illness with expected recovery. According to World Health Organization, the overall global case fatality rate is currently estimated to be 2.9%. However, patients having severe or critical illness presenting with severe respiratory distress, ARDS or shock suffer most with mortality rates of 49.0-61.5%. Studies suggest that there are mild or severe cytokine storms in severe patients, which is an important cause of death. An exaggerated and uncontrolled release of pro-inflammatory mediators by an overly activated immune system is known as cytokine storms (CS) or cytokine release syndrome (CRS) which has an important role in the hemodynamic insults seen in very ill COVID-19 patients. This aberrant release of pro-inflammatory cytokines causes lung damage, myocarditis, acute kidney injury, etc. In this study, the investigators aim to estimate the burden of cytokines and their correlation with the magnitude of the severity of COVID-19 illness in Bangladeshi adults.

Background: In early 2020, many people thought Cambodia would have a serious COVID-19 outbreak due to the high number of Chinese travelers going to Cambodia. But as of June 14, 2020, only 128 cases of COVID-19 have been identified in the country. Many of these cases have been from people who had traveled in Europe. Researchers want to do antibody tests on blood from a sampling of people in Phnom Penh to learn the infection risks for people in the greater Phnom Penh area. Objective: To estimate the level of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the blood of people living in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Eligibility: Healthy males and females age 18-65 living in Phnom Penh since January 2020. Design: A mobile unit will travel to schools, shopping areas, parks, and pagodas around Phnom Penh. Participants will be screened with questions about their age and where they live. They will have blood taken via fingerstick. About 80 uL of blood will be taken. It will be tested for SARS-CoV-2. This visit will take about 30 minutes. If the test result is positive, participants will be contacted by phone. They will be asked to have a second blood draw. This time, 20 mL of blood will be taken. They can have this visit at their home or in a clinic. This visit will take about 30 minutes. If a participant has an adverse event, the mobile units and at-home units will have the tools needed to aid the participant. If needed, the participant will be sent to a nearby clinic.
