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.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory tract infection caused by a newly emergent coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that can progress to severe multiorgan disease requiring hospitalization. The medium and long-term impact in survivors of COVID-19 on lung function, imaging by thoracic CT, exercise capacity, and health-related quality of life and the relation of these parameters remains to be determined.

The hypothesis is that from a cluster defined by a confirmed positive case of COVID-19 and its contact cases, it is possible to study the different expressions and clinical evolutions of COVID-19 infection and to explore the biological profiles related to the observed clinical history. Certain biological determinants (virological, immunological, microbological or gentic) could indeed be correlated with the clinical presentation and/or be useful for personalized care. The main objective is to study the relationship between the biological profiles observed and the clinical evolutions within the same cluster of transmission of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (positive COVID-19 cases and contact subjects).

Background: People who are recovering from COVID-19 may continue to have problems that affect their daily life. For instance, they might feel overly tired. Researchers want to learn if exercise can help people recover after COVID-19 infection. Objective: To study if participation in a rehabilitation exercise program can help people recovering from COVID-19. Eligibility: Adults ages 18-80 with a lab-confirmed SARS-CoV2 infection (the virus that causes COVID-19), and are still having some symptoms. Design: Participants will have a medical history and physical exam. They will give blood and urine samples. They will have tests to measure heart and lung function. Their blood vessels will be assessed. Participants will have a computed tomography scan of the body. They will have an ultrasound of the muscles in their arms, legs, and chest. Participants will take a 6-minute walk test. They will take other balance and movement tests. Participants will walk on a treadmill while hooked up to a monitor. Then they will be interviewed. It will be audio-recorded. Participants will complete surveys about their symptoms and daily activities. Participants will take a smell test. For this, they will identify different smells. They will also have memory, attention, and mental functioning tests. Participants will wear an activity monitor on their wrist 24 hours a day. They will exercise 3 times a week for 10 weeks by moving vigorously on a track or treadmill for 30 minutes. They will attend education classes once a week for 10 weeks. Participants will be contacted by phone or email every 3 months for 1 year after they complete the exercise part of the study. They will wear an activity monitor for up to 2 weeks.

This study is meant to assess the lung mechanics in SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure. A precise characterisation of lung mechanics and heart-lung-interactions might allow a better understanding of SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure and thus lead to better mechanical ventilation strategies. This monocentric, observational study of critically ill COVID-19 patients in the ICU, will employ impedance tomography, right-heart catheterization, oesophageal pressure measurements, indirect calorimetry as well as classic mechanical ventilation parameters to characterise the mechanical characteristics of the lung as well as the heart-lung interactions in SARS-CoV-2 induced acute respiratory failure.

Abstract Title: Randomized,open-label, controlled trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of a highly selective semipermeable membrane (AN69-Oxiris) in comparison with a selective semipermeable membrane ( standard AN69) in COVID-19 associated acute kidney injury: oXAKI-COV study Rationale: Acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19 disease, is present in up to 30% of this group and more than 50% of them will need renal replacement therapy in the form of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Acute kidney injury in this context seems to be a marker of multiorgan dysfunction and it produces increased mortality in this population. There is a vast amount of mechanisms that lead to AKI in critically ill patients with COVID-19; however, the cytokine storm could be the strongest mechanism implicated in AKI development in individuals with continuous renal replacement therapy requirements. Therefore, blocking or reducing the cytokine storm is thought to be a therapeutic target. Highly selective semipermeable membranes (AN69-Oxiris) have been shown able to adsorb endotoxins and to eliminate inflammatory cytokines, thus representing a valuable therapeutic option in this infection. Objective: To demonstrate clinical efficacy of AN69-Oxiris membrane to reach a stable MAP, with less vasopressor dosing (at least 0.1 micrograms/kg/min) after 72h of treatment, compared to a conventional membrane (standard AN69) in critically ill patients with AKI, COVID-19 infection and requirement of continuous renal replacement therapy. Study design: Randomized,open-label, controlled trial in critically ill patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 disease, AKI, and criteria for continuous renal replacement therapy initiation admitted in any of the two participating institutions. Patients meeting inclusion criteria will be randomized to receive CRRT with AN69-Oxiris membrane or standard AN69 membrane during a 72h period.

Phase 1: 25 patients with a PCR-based diagnosis of Covid-19 will be be included to give 500 microliters of saliva and a 3 ml sample of blood for proteomic analysis; a drop of blood will also be put in a device connected to a silica matrix to perform spectrometric analyses. 25 patients with a non-Covid-19 respiratory infection will be included for the same samples. The proteomic analyses will be performed from classicaly draught blood, blood drop on silica, and saliva, to search for discriminating profiles between Covid-19 and non-Covid-19. Phase 2: 150 patients with a suspected Covid-19 will be included at the same time than the Covid-19PCR is performed ; they will have a sample of saliva and of a drop of blood for proteomic analysis, whose results will be matched with PCR results.
