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.

COVID-19-infection has a large impact on the respiratory system and possibly on the diaphragm, the main respiratory muscle. In ICU-patients, diaphragm weakness is associated with prolonged ICU-stay, difficult weaning and increased mortality. Our research group recently found evidence for fibrosis and expression of genes involved in fibrosis as well as viral infiltration of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in diaphragm biopsies from COVID-19 ICU patients. This finding suggests a unique manifestation of diaphragm injury in COVID-19 patients after mechanical ventilation. However, it remains unclear what the exact nature and location of diaphragm injury is. Additionally, it is largely unknown whether this injury affects the movement of the diaphragm, but this might have important clinical implications. Therefore, we aim at visualizing the tissue characteristics and movement of the diaphragm in COVID-19 patients who recently received long-term mechanical ventilation, other ICU patients and healthy controls, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI of the diaphragm was already shown feasible in previous research from our group (article currently under review). New insights in the characteristics of diaphragm weakness and injury in COVID-19 patients and control ICU-patients will contribute to strategies to prevent it and monitor the diaphragm of patients under mechanical ventilation, which can contribute to better patient outcomes.
The Joel Cornette Foundation
The Hearts of Athletes study is being conducted to determine the heart involvement with COVID-19 in athletes. This study aims to enroll any Adult (18 years of age or greater) • Athlete is defined as NCAA Collegiate Athlete, Professional Athlete, Military, or Olympic Athlete will be eligible for the study. With COVID-19 • COVID-19 diagnosed via an RT-PCR (nasal or throat swab test) prior to enrollment Or without COVID-19 • Identified as a local Control participant (similar sport) to a participant with COVID-19, who is willing to undergo a standard cardiovascular evaluation Participants with and without COVID-19 will use their mobile devices to provide health information, like symptoms, by answering survey questions daily for 30 days. Also, participants will allow their de-identified cardiac images to be sent to the Duke Heart Center for blinded analysis. No physical risks are associated with this study. One possible risk, although minimal, is loss of confidentiality.
Gruppo Italiano Malattie EMatologiche dell'Adulto
Multicenter retrospective and prospective observational study based on the collection of sequential anonymized data from principal Italian ITP centers, to describe the clinical course of ITP patients becoming infected by SARS-CoV-2 and of COVID-19 patients developing de novo ITP.

Few trials have reported the safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines. However, these trials were mostly focused on post-vaccination adverse events and short-term antibody detection with none monitoring the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in blood at long-term follow-up after the vaccination. This study aims to evaluate the immune response in post-vaccinated individuals across a follow-up period of one year.
ICOT University Hospital
Vaccine rollout has started in many countries. In Italy, the Covid-19 vaccine used at the moment is the mRNA-based BNT162b2 and is given to Hospital employers. The investigators undertake this study to monitor IgG evolution after vaccination in the participant hospital settings, which includes 500 subjects.
Nepal Health Research Council
The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of Isoquercetin in preventing disease progression and symptoms improvement in mild-to-moderate hospitalised COVID-19 patients.
European Hematology Association
The overall purpose of this project is to better understand the epidemiology of COVID-19 in patients with hematological malignancies (including hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients) in the different European Countries. The results obtained will allow us to better know the prevalence of this complication in the different categories of patients with hematological malignancies (HMs). In order to attain the objectives previously described we will develop a multicentre, international, observational, retrospective and prospective study of consecutive cases of COVID-19 among HMs. There will be a clinical follow-up of the patients included in this study to observe the survival rate. Data collected form this study will be evaluated with a descriptive analysis.

Coordination and Locomotor Problems in Patients With Covid-19 Virus
Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz
Patients who received the indication for endoscopic diagnostics using gastroscopy in transnasal technique will be included into the study. The examination is carried out in standard technique and is not influenced by the study. Following the examination, patient data is collected pseudonymously and a questionnaire is submitted to the patient.

Nasopharyngeal Swabs (NPS) used to test for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can cause mild to severe discomfort in addition to increasing the risk of transmission. The present study evaluates Test At Home's proprietary self-collection method based on a chewable buccal cavity swab ("lollipop") that stimulates oral fluid collection. The novel method is compared against a contemporary nasal swab collected by a qualified healthcare worker.
