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 novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) infection leading to pneumonia and severe acute respiratory failure [acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)] and death is a global threat. On 11/03/2020, WHO declared the Covid-19 outbreak a global pandemic. As of 18th of March, there are 202,309 confirmed cases with 8,013 deaths. Patients with severe illness may develop dyspnoea and hypoxemia within 1week after onset, which may quickly progress to ARDS or end-organ failure 1. Based on Chinese data abnormal coagulation parameters (Prolonged Prothrombin time [PT] and raised D dimer) are reported to predict a poor prognosis and may therefore be important therapeutic targets. The number of patients with infected with COVID- 19 in UK is rapidly rising as with many other European countries. Eventually >50% of people will have become infected and COVID-19 will remain a public health threat in the long term. It is therefore very important to understand every aspect of this disease, including the associated coagulopathy leading bleeding, blood clots (thrombosis) and death. Emerging data from Europe and some centres in UK, indicates that venous thromboembolism (VTE), mainly pulmonary embolism (PE), is major problem in COVID patients. In this retrospective-prospective: multicentre study, investigators will document the patient characteristics, presenting haematological parameters and associated comorbidities and their association with bleeding, thrombosis and mortality in patients admitted for hospital treatment. Determining the predictive value of patient characteristics and presenting laboratory measurements for clinical outcomes in these patients will allow us to optimise management of these patients in the future. Furthermore, by comparing these data with data from patients without Covid-19, investigators will be able to modify existing protocols and tailor them to the management of COVID -19.

COVID 19 is a novel and severe disease. One of the problems is that the virus disturbs the lungs and cause water accumulation in lungs alveolus (ARDS). Today, a chest X-ray is the only practical way to check the degree of lung accumulation. However, X-Ray has many limitations and disadvantages. Lung impedance technology allows simple lung fluid monitoring, and found to be effective in HF patients who suffer from a similar problem. The study's aim is to establish a correlation between lung fluid assessed by impedance technique and x-ray examinations. To find a correlation between lung fluid assessment by impedance and clinical parameters of COVID 19 patients.

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma will be the 2nd cause of death by cancer in Europe in 2030. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma has poor prognosis with an all-stages combined 5-year survival rate below 8%. Since December 2019, a new coronavirus (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2, SARS-CoV-2) is responsible of COVID-19 infection with potentially severe respiratory syndrome or even multi-organ failure. An increased risk of severe COVID-19 infection in cancer patients is suggested in several Chinese series. Cancer care structures quickly reorganized to limit high-risk situations (diagnostic procedure, major surgery, cytotoxic poly-chemotherapy) and use alternatives such as on-hold chemotherapy. These reorganizations could be associated with a loss of chance for pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

The effect and impact of postponing cardiac surgery / creating a waiting list as a result of COVID-19 on patients, both psychologically and symptomatically on three groups of patients: 1. The degree of anxiety and/or depression induced by their altered medical care trajectory. 2. The incidence of medical problems induced by deferred elective surgery or delayed postoperative ambulatory visit 3. The occurrence of reduced access to medical and psychological help

This study is to evaluate the utility of the PCL Rapid Antigen Test for Coronavirus (COVID-19) in a real world clinical setting. The PCL test has completed laboratory validation and holds a European CE marking for in vitro diagnostic devices. These tests have been made available to South West Pathology Services as a donation in kind by iPP (Integrated Pathology Partnership). They have been widely used in South Korea. This study will test the practical delivery of the test in terms of time constraints and error rates. We will also compare the objective performance to the current standard diagnostic test for COVID-19 and against a proven serological antibody test when a suitable reference testing becomes available. We will recruit patients having a SARS CoV-2 PCR swab test and ask for consent to test them with the PCL antigen test in parallel. We aim to study 200 patients split across three sites; Musgrove Park Hospital, Basildon University Hospital and Southend University Hospital. The results will not be used to guide clinical decision making. Patients having a COVID PCR test will be asked to read the patient information sheet and asked if they would like to participate. The patients will be asked to have a second nasal/throat swab taken shortly after their swab for the PCR test. Written informed consent will be taken for whole blood or plasma left over from any routine clinical sample to be stored as anonymised samples for future testing once a reference test becomes available. We will report results of the onsite clinical diagnostic test and the PCL antigen test with the number of the kit used, and test date. Anonymised information about year of birth, gender and place of testing will be collected alongside date of onset, symptoms and immunodeficiency status or significant conditions.

There is an urgent need to evaluate interventions that could be effective against the infection with SARS-CoV 2. Tannins based wood extracts are an inexpensive and safe product with protective effect in both bacterial and viral infections likely due to its anti- inflammatory, anti-oxidative effects and their modulation of the intestinal microbiota. This randomized controlled trial seeks to evaluate the efficacy of the tannins based dietary supplement ARBOX in positive COVID-19 patients.

The current pandemic caused by the newly identified coronavirus responsible for COVID-19 is a major threat to our populations and societies. Hypothesis/Objective The acquisition of protective immunity at the level of the individual, either through vaccination or natural resolution of the infection, progressively leads at the level of the population to the reduction of the fraction of the population that can be productively infected and transmit the virus, hence, leading to the diminution of the rate of transmission, a phenomenon called herd immunity. Herd immunity was proposed as a strategy to control the infection. However, it remains difficult to model group immunity given the limited knowledge of the interaction between the host immune system with the virus, whose capacity to evolve in face of a neutralizing response is also not known. It is therefore important to acquire a better knowledge of the immunological memory that ensures the resolution of COVID-19 after SARS-CoV2 infection. Method To study single-cell B and T memory cells specific for the anti-SARS-CoV-2 response and characterize somatic mutations of immunoglobulin genes and TCR, in hospitalized and symptomatic patients and in patients cured of SARS-CoV-2.
