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.

Several studies have suggested a potential clinical benefit of controlling hyper inflammation triggered by SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19. Blood purification, the removal of excessive proinflammatory mediators may control disease progression and support clinical recovery. For this purpose, COVID-19 patients might benefit from treatment with AN69ST hemofilter based extracorporeal blood purification.
Methodist Health System
This is a prospective cohort observational registry study that will include data on all patients who are treated at MHS facilities for COVID-19.
Universidad Internacional de Valencia
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a Positive Psychology intervention, that is focused on increasing the positive emotions and strengths of human beings. It is compared to the effectiveness of an online treatment with the change of the same participants before and after receiving the treatment accompanied by a chat support service vs. the treatment solely. The changes are being assessed through worldwide validated measures such as psychometrics.
University of California, Berkeley
The investigators have developed supportive text-messages in English and Spanish to help people cope with the stress and anxiety of COVID-19 social distancing. The purpose of this study is to examine if automated text-messages will improve depression and anxiety symptoms and enhance positive mood. Additionally, the investigators will compare the effectiveness of sending messages on a random schedule (using a micro-randomized trial design) or sent by a reinforcement learning policy on overall change in depression and anxiety symptoms and daily mood during the 8-week study.

The specimens collected will be used to evaluate matrix equivalency in an immunoassay in development for the detection of IgG or IgA or IgM antibodies to SARS - CoV2 in human serum. These reagents are for in vitro diagnostic use only.

Many countries in sub-Saharan Africa are implementing a policy of six-month dispensing of antiretroviral (ARV) medications for HIV. Under the new guidelines, stable patients can receive a six-month supply of ARV medications at once, reducing the number of clinic visits required for medication refills. South Africa is considering this policy but has not yet adopted it and has requested evidence of its feasibility, effectiveness, and costs to the healthcare system and to patients. The decision on whether to implement a six-month dispensing policy has become urgent due to the SARS-Cov-2 epidemic, as clinic visits to refill prescriptions pose COVID-19 transmission risks to both patients and providers. To generate the required evidence, South Africa is implementing a pilot program that will allow for a cluster-randomized evaluation of 6-month dispensing. This protocol is for that evaluation. It aims to provide supporting evidence to inform future policy and procurement decisions by the National Department of Health (NDOH). All interventions will be conducted as part of routine care by Department of Health staff. In the pilot program, the NDOH will randomize 28 clinics in two provinces 1:1 to receive the six month dispensing intervention or continue standard of care, which currently allows for 2-3 month dispensing. The researchers will assess the patient outcomes of six month dispensing, administer a cross-sectional patient questionnaire, conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews with care providers and implementers, and estimate the costs to NDOH and to patients of six month dispensing. A maximum of 150,545 patients will be followed through their medical records and 400 patients and providers will be consented to be interviewed at baseline and after 6 months (total maximum sample size = 150,945).
Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires
Background The study aimed to establish the seroprevalence of SARS-COV-2 in an Argentinian slum three months after the first case was reported. Methods Between June 10th and July 1st, a cross-sectional design was carried out on people over 14 years old, selected from a probabilistic sample of households. Finger prick puncture ELISA test

This study aims to collect convalescent plasma and use it as experimental treatment in critically ill Covid-19 patients in order to reduce mortality and length of stay in intensive care unit.
Mekelle University
The investigators will evaluate the profile of the immune response of Ethiopian population and examine its relationship with the noted low CD4+ T-cell count and underlying immune activation status among participants with COVID-19 and will compare results with those residing in Europe. In addition, this project will evaluate the performance of various rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for SARS-CoV-2, taking into account the above-determined immune system characteristics. We will also evaluate the effect of co-infection with parasites on COVID-19 severity
