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.

This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial testing the use of ozone auto-hemotherapy in hospitalized patients with Covid-19 pneumonia. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive either ozone auto-hemotherapy plus standard treatment, or standard treatment alone. Patients in the ozone auto-hemotherapy group will receive treatment mixing 100-200ml of blood with ozone at a concentration of 40 μg / mL with a gas volume of 200 ml. Treatment will occur every 12h during 5 days. Standard treatment will be the one used in each hospital participating in the trial. All analyses will be done according to the intention-to-treat principle

The pathophysiology of ARDS is linked to an uncontrolled inflammatory response at the level of alveolo-capillary membrane, mediated by neutrophils and mononuclear cells. The complement system and anaphylatoxin C5a have shown central role in the recruitment of these pro-inflammatory cells and more broadly in the genesis of cytokinic storm syndrome. C5a acts via receptors C5aR and C5L2. This is a preliminary study aimed at studying the expression of the C5a receptor on myeloid cells in peripheral blood of patients with ARDS secondary to COVID-19. This study has of primary objective to show there is an overexpression of the C5a receptor in patients with ARDS secondary to COVID-19 compared to control patients (patients with COVID-19 without respiratory distress and healthy volunteers). The medium-term objective is to develop a clinical trial to test the effectiveness of anti-C5aR antibody in this condition.

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.

Treatments for COVID-19 are urgently needed. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is an antimalarial and immunomodulatory agent being repurposed for COVID-19 therapy based off in vitro data suggesting a possible antiviral effect. However, HCQ's effect on COVID-19 in human infection remains unknown. To fill this knowledge gap, we will enroll 626 adult patients hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 and randomize them 1:1 to a five-day course of HCQ or placebo. Notable exclusion criteria include ICU admission or ventilation on enrollment, prior therapy with HCQ, and baseline prolonged qTC. Our primary endpoint is a severe disease progression composite outcome (death, ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, ECMO, , and/or vasopressor requirement) at the 14-day post-treatment evaluation. Notable secondary clinical outcomes include 30-day mortality, hospital length of stay, noninvasive ventilator support, and cytokine release syndrome (CRS) grading scale. Secondary exploratory objectives will examine SARS-CoV-2 viral eradication at the EOT, changes in COVID-19 putative prognostic markers and cytokine levels, and titers of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. This randomized trial will determine if HCQ is effective as treatment in hospitalized non-ICU patients with COVID-19.

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.
