- Expanded Access eRequest
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 has become a global problem. There is an urgent need to improve the diagnosisand screening of patients and healthcare workers for COVID-19 in the UK. Mask basedsampling is a method of detecting SARS-COV-2 (the virus responsible for COVID-19) in thebreath of suspected COVID-19 patients or healthcare workers in the mask that they wouldwear in hospital. The investigators have previously demonstrated the utility of thismethod in other respiratory infections, such as tuberculosis.This project aims to investigate the utility of mask-based sampling is a tool for thediagnosis and quantification of COVID-19 in breath and the implications in a healthcaresetting using three cohorts of participants. Initially we will compare the amount ofCOVID-19 detected by mask sampling compared with standard nasopharyngeal swab, which isthe current gold standard test, in patients who present to hospital with COVID-19symptoms.We will address the length of time COVID-19 is breathed out by people affected by thevirus and the how infectious the virus is over time in a cohort of symptomatic healthcareworkers who are isolating at home. This will allow us to understand how long someonestays infectious for and may have the potential to inform public health measures, forinstance when healthcare workers can return to work or duration of isolation. Finally wewill investigate asymptomatic carriage of COVID-19 by different healthcare workers indifferent areas of the hospital during a screening study. This will allow us tounderstand the extent of infection amongst healthcare workers and allow us to addresshospital acquired transmission.

The goal of this project is to rapidly screen promising agents, in the setting of anadaptive platform trial, for treatment of critically ill COVID-19 patients. In this phase2 platform design, agents will be identified with a signal suggesting a big impact onreducing mortality and the need for, as well as duration, of mechanical ventilation.

COVID-19 is a community acquired pneumonia caused by infection with a novel coronavirus,SARS CoV2 and is a serious condition with high mortality in hospitalised patients, forwhich there is no currently approved treatment other than supportive care. Urgentinvestigation of potential treatments for this condition is required.This protocol describes an overarching and adaptive trial designed to provide safety,pharmacokinetic (PK)/ pharmacodynamic (PD) information and exploratory biologicalsurrogates of efficacy which may support further development and deployment of candidatetherapies in larger scale trials of COVID-19 positive patients receiving normal standardof care.Given the spectrum of clinical disease, community based infected patients or hospitalisedpatients can be included. Products requiring parenteral administration will only beinvestigated in hospitalised patients. Patients will be divided into cohorts, a)community b) hospitalised patients with new changes on a chest x-ray (CXR) or a computedtomography (CT) scan or requiring supplemental oxygen and c) hospitalised requiringassisted ventilation. Participants may be recruited from all three of these cohorts,depending on the experimental therapy, its route of administration and mechanism ofaction. The relevant cohort(s) for any given therapy will be detailed in thetherapy-specific appendix.Candidate therapies can be added to the protocol and previous candidates removed fromfurther investigation as evidence emerges. The trial will be monitored by an independentData Monitoring Committee (DMC) to ensure patient safety.Each candidate cohort will include a small cohort of patients randomised to candidatetherapy or existing standard of care management dependent on disease stage at entry.Cohort numbers will be defined in the protocol appendices.This is a Phase IIa experimental medicine trial and as such formal sample sizecalculations are not appropriate.

A huge number of initiatives about COVID-19 are ongoing and a growing number ofpublications regard the correlation between cancer patients in general and SARS-CoV-2infection. Although it has been reported that cancer patients are at a higher risk ofSARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 complications, data collection about cases of NENpatients SARS-CoV-2 positive are scattered and related to single countries orinstitutions. Because of that and due to the rarity and heterogeneity of NEN it will behard to have homogeneous, reliable, representative and reproducible data for drawingadequate clinical recommendations about NEN patients and COVID-19.Therefore we propose a global collection of data through an international database todescribe and monitor NEN patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Thisretrospective/prospective collection of data can create a solid basis to check frequenceof events, clinical management, clinical outcome, demographic, geographical, clinical andbiological correlations. This will be helpful for the clinical and scientific communityto get reliable information for a homogeneous clinical management of NEN patients duringCOVID-19 pandemic.The main goal is to get the as wide as possible representativity of the world situation.
