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.
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.

SOLIDARITY Finland Long-COVID trial assesses the effects of remdesivir + standard of care(SoC) vs. only SoC on long-COVID symptoms and quality of life (QoL) using questionnairesat one and two years post-discharge.Objectives i) Long-COVID symptoms - To investigate the effect of remdesivir (vs. SoC) on the occurrence of symptoms that have been associated with the long-COVID syndrome. The questionnaires will take place 1 and 2 years after the hospital admission. - The symptom questionnaire - that will be completed by patients at one and two years - measures basic patient information (age, height, weight, smoking status, major comorbidity, and working status) and a wide variety of potential long-COVID-symptoms and their bother (1. Fatigue; 2. Attention deficits; 3. Memory problems; 4. Sleeping difficulties; 5. Depressive mood; 6. Anxiety; 7. Dizziness; 8. Headache; 9. Tinnitus; 10. Paresthesias; 11. Changes in taste/smell perceptions; 12. Postexertional malaise; 13. Palpitations; 14. Chest discomfort; 15. Nausea; 16. Skin rash; 17. Joint aches; 18. Muscle pains; 19. Continuous cough; 20. Respiratory tract mucous discharges) in remdesivir and usual care armsii) Quality of life - EQ-VAS: to compare patients' quality of life in remdesivir and usual care arms. - EQ-5D-5L questionnaire assesses the following domains: 1. Mobility; 2. Self-care; 3. Usual activities; 4. Pain and discomfort; 5. Anxiety and depression; 6. The VAS of subjective perception of overall health.Additionally (at 1 or 2 years; depending on future funding and ethical approvaldecisions; currently the study has ethical approval for long-COVID and quality of lifeassessments only): - The Finnish healthcare registries (Statistics Finland Mortality Database and the HILMO Care Register for Health Care) will be used to estimate long-term mortality and incidence of major comorbidity in remdesivir and usual care arms - Lung function will be assessed using spirometry and diffusing capacity, as well as the six-minute walk test (6 mwt) in remdesivir and usual care arms - Whole-genome genotyping will be performed for a genome-wide association study to investigate genetic correlates of long-COVID-19 -symptoms in remdesivir and usual care armsUPDATE 02.02.2022:Primary outcomes will comprise the following: 1. EQ-VAS 2. EQ-5D-5L, summary 3. Does the patient feel recovered from COVID-19-infection at one year or not? (question no. 10) 4. Fatigue (questionnaire, question no. 14) 5. Exertional dyspnea (question no. 12)

This phase 2 trial studies the immune response to GEO-CM04S1 (previously designated asCOH04S1) compared to standard of care (SOC) mRNA SARS-COV-2 vaccine in patients withblood cancer who have received stem cell transplant or cellular therapy.GEO-CM04S1 belongs to a category called modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vaccines, createdfrom a new version of MVA, called synthetic MVA. GEO-CM04S1 works by inducing immunity(the ability to recognize and fight against an infection) to SARS-CoV-2. The immunesystem is stimulated to produce antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 that would block the virusfrom entering healthy cells. The immune system also grows new disease fighting T cellsthat can recognize and destroy infected cells. Giving GEO-CM04S1 after cellular therapymay work better in reducing the chances of contracting coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19) or developing a severe form of COVID-19 disease in patients with blood cancercompared to SOC mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.

Little is currently known about the immediate and long-term effect of COVID-19 on lungventilation (delivery of air to the lungs) and lung perfusion (delivery of blood to thelungs). Some people who survive COVID-19 may have lung ventilation and/or perfusioninjury that persists following COVID-19 recovery. This lung injury may be related toinflammation in the lung, breathlessness, exercise limitation and reduced quality oflife. Therefore, towards the goal of understanding the effects of COVID-19 on lunghealth, the purpose of this study is to characterize and understand the clinicalrelevance of COVID-19 related lung ventilation and perfusion injury and associatedinflammatory status, ≤4 weeks and 6-months following COVID-19 recovery in an asthmaticand healthy population. To do this, an asthmatic and healthy population who have, andhave not, been previously diagnosed with COVID-19 will be studied.

Viral pandemics, such as HIV and SARS-Cov-V1, have shown that they can lead to acute and/ or delayed neurological complications. At the actual context of the pandemicCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), neurological manifestations seem to be confirmedsince in 85% of COVID-19 patients, present neurological symptoms, including anosmia,ageusia, periorbital pain, dizziness, fatigue, even moderate headache, moderate memoryand/or behavioral disorders.However, these neurological manifestations are not well studied and their radiologicalfeatures are not well described. It is therefore important to assess these potentialneurological complications in COVID-19 patients. To the investigator knowledge, there isno previous study in the literature describing spectral brain changes in COVID +patients. Thus, the goal of this work is to describe the radiological semiology using MRIand particularly Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic (MRS) biomarkers in the evaluation ofacute and / or delayed brain damage in COVID + patients presenting a neurologicalmanifestations that are initially related to the cranial nerves damage.

Background: There are no proven therapies specific for pulmonary dysfunction in patientswith acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) caused by infections (includingCovid-19). The full spectrum of AHRF ranges from mild respiratory tract illness to severepneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multiorgan failure, and death. Theefficacy of corticosteroids in AHRF and ARDS caused by infections remains controversial.Methods: This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial testingdexamethasone in mechanically ventilated adult patients with established AHRF (includingARDS) caused by confirmed pulmonary or systemic infections, admitted in a network ofSpanish ICUs. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive dexamethasone:either 6 mg/d x 10 days or 20 mg/d x 5 days followed by 10 mg/d x 5 days. The primaryoutcome is 60-day mortality. The secondary outcome is the number of ventilator-free daysat 28 days. All analyses will be done according to the intention-to-treat principle.
La Tour Hospital
The Geneva Canton organized the health crisis of the COVID-19 epidemic around the care ofCOVID patients at the University Hospital (HUG), by moving the care of non-COVID patientsto private hospitals of the canton. The COVID epidemic appears to have been associatedwith a decrease in consultations and care for non-COVID patients. An excess of morbidityand mortality (non-COVID) would be possible during or after the epidemic in connectionwith this "under-medicalization" of non-COVID patients.The aim of this study is to measure and analyze the impact on the morbidity and mortalityof inpatients during and after the COVID-19 epidemic in the adult inpatient wards of HUGand township hospitals / clinics.
