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.

A large number of Health Care Workers (HCWs) would be potentially getting exposed to COVID19. Some of them would be asymptomatic or may get subclinical symptoms. Our HCW would have higher exposure and possibly higher seroconversion either symptomatic or with clinical symptoms than the general population. This study is aimed to understand the rate of seroconversion states at different stages of exposure. It is crucial to collect baseline immune status and the early immunological changes that might occur in asymptomatic or symptomatic health care workers and to compare that with the suspected or confirmed cases by following them for six weeks.

Is Lung Ultrasound really useful in diagnosing COVID19? What can be the usefulness of the Lung Ultrasound in the COVID19 epidemic? In the current state of the art, Sensitivity, Specificity, Positive Predictive Value (PPV) and Negative Predictive Value (NPV) of Lung Ultrasound in the diagnosis of COVID-19 are not yet known. Alveolar-interstitial lung diseases such as viral pneumonia and ARDS seems to have a specific ultrasound pattern that distinguishes them from bacterial pneumonia, preferentially represented by B lines, morphological irregularity of the pleural line, and small subpleural consolidations, but they could share these patterns with other pathologies, reducing specificity. In Italy, the Lung Ultrasound represents a consolidated method for the evaluation and management of all patients who come to the ER, and what we are sure of is its high sensitivity in identifying pathological patterns. Our preliminary data suggest that Lung Ultrasound is highly reliable not to include but to exclude the diagnosis of COVID-19 in patients with respiratory symptoms.

Since the end of February 2020, Covid-19 infection has spread widely in France, particularly in the East region, with on March 25th, 2020, 5,479 infected patients and 407 deceased patients, including 256 in Alsace. Among the hospitalized patients reported in the initial Chinese studies, 48% had co-morbidity, particularly diabetes or cardiovascular disease. Covid-19 infection does not appear to be more common in diabetic patients, but infected diabetics have more severe forms. The prevalence of diabetes is high in Alsace affecting 6.5% of the population against 4.6% in France. Du to health containment measures, asymptomatic diabetic patients can no longer come to the clinic in Hospital for their consultation. However, in the current epidemiological context, maintaining optimal glycemic control is fundamental since some of diabetic patients will have Covid-19 infections. Furthermore, the sedentary lifestyle and snacking linked to the confinement period will contribute to a glycemic imbalance in some patients. Telemedicine, and in particular teleconsultation, which until now has been very uncommon in the management of diabetic patients, represents a very interesting alternative for monitoring these patients and maintaining satisfactory metabolic control during the current period of confinement and Covid-19 epidemic.

With the influx of patients suspected of Covid-19 and the limited number of hospital beds, there is a need for sensitive triage to detect patients at risk of pulmonary complications and therefore requiring hospitalization, but also specific triage to safely discharge patients without risk factors or signs of clinical or ultrasound severity. The use of pulmonary ultrasound in addition to clinical assessment seems appropriate. Indeed, it allows early detection of signs of pneumopathy which, in the current context, most often correspond to Covid-19. These signs include B-lines, which indicate interstitial pulmonary oedema, and an anfractuous and thickened pleural line, or even centimetric parenchymal condensations with a low level of pleural effusion. Conversely, the presence of a medium to large pleural effusion is not very suggestive of the diagnosis of Covid-19. In addition, a lung ultrasound score has been developed and validated to assess the severity of acute respiratory distress and predict the occurrence of acute respiratory distress syndrome. It is based on the performance of a 12-point (6 per hemi-thorax) pulmonary ultrasound with the collection of the presence of B-lines, condensation or pleural effusion. In the hands of a trained operator, this examination takes only a few minutes. The aim of the study is to develop a score based on clinical and ultrasound evidence to allow early and safer referral than that based on clinical evidence alone. To do this, the study will retrospectively collect clinical and lung ultrasound data from departments that use this technique on a daily basis.

The noval coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) would cause physical and psychological dysfunctions in infected patients. We expect that an intelligence-based remote pulmonary rehabilitation scheme could improve patients' health status after hospital discharge. The intelligence-based remote pulmonary rehabilitation program is designed in a real-world and prospective manner, aiming to evaluate the efficacy of rehabilitation among 200 patients in the epicenter of China (Wuhan City) according to their varied adherence. An eight-week rehabilitation scheme, including two weeks for physicians and physiotherapists remotely guided training, and six weeks for patient self-management, will be addressed. The primary outcome of current study is six-minute walking distance and lung function, and secondly respiratory muscle strength, physical fitness assessment, symptoms and quality of life, etc. will also be assessed. Recruited patients will be followed up at week 2, 4, 8 after enrollment and at month 1, 3, 6, 12 after the rehabilitation training completed, respectively. The study has been approved by the ethics committee of China-Japan Friendship Hospital and three participating centers in Wuhan City.

The Covid-19 pandemic is a pandemic of an emerging infectious disease, coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19), caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. It appears in November 2019 in the city of Wuhan, China, and spreads worldwide from February 2020. The first cases of infection in France were confirmed on 24 January 2020. As of April 14, 103,573 cases of infection were confirmed, 32,292 hospitalized cases, including 6,730 in intensive care, with 15,729 deaths recorded1. The most affected regions are Ile de France and the Grand Est (in particular the Haut-Rhin department). Containment of the entire French population was introduced on 17 March, with the aim of reducing the spread of the virus and relieving the burden on the health system, particularly the intensive care units. This unprecedented health crisis, as well as the social containment measures in themselves, has repercussions on other acute medical pthologies, not directly related to the viral infection. It appears that the number of patients treated for acute stroke has suddenly declined since the beginning of the epidemic. However, it is not clear whether it is the incidence of stroke that has declined or simply the proportion of patients presenting within the time frame that allows for treatment in the acute phase (by thrombolysis or thrombectomy).

The current COVID19 pandemic has afflicted almost the whole globe. The stress related to the pandemic, not the direct virus-related injury, can be potentially associated with acute cardiovascular events due to a large list of physical and psychosocial stresses. This study is a cross sectional study that will enroll patients evaluated during the COVID19 pandemic period for acute cardiovascular events.
