ImportanceSystematic data on the association between anticancer therapies and thromboembolic events (TEEs) in patients with COVID-19 are lacking.ObjectiveTo assess the association between anticancer therapy exposure within 3 months prior to COVID-19 and TEEs following COVID-19 diagnosis in patients with cancer.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis registry-based retrospective cohort study included patients who were hospitalized and had active cancer and laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. Data were accrued from March 2020 to December 2021 and analyzed from December 2021 to October 2022.ExposureTreatments of interest (TOIs) (endocrine therapy, vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors/tyrosine kinase inhibitors [VEGFis/TKIs], immunomodulators [IMiDs], immune checkpoint inhibitors [ICIs], chemotherapy) vs reference (no systemic therapy) in 3 months prior to COVID-19.Main Outcomes and MeasuresMain outcomes were (1) venous thromboembolism (VTE) and (2) arterial thromboembolism (ATE). Secondary outcome was severity of COVID-19 (rates of intensive care unit admission, mechanical ventilation, 30-day all-cause mortality following TEEs in TOI vs reference group) at 30-day follow-up.ResultsOf 4988 hospitalized patients with cancer (median [IQR] age, 69 [59-78] years; 2608 [52%] male), 1869 had received 1 or more TOIs. Incidence of VTE was higher in all TOI groups: endocrine therapy, 7%; VEGFis/TKIs, 10%; IMiDs, 8%; ICIs, 12%; and chemotherapy, 10%, compared with patients not receiving systemic therapies (6%). In multivariable log-binomial regression analyses, relative risk of VTE (adjusted risk ratio [aRR], 1.33; 95% CI, 1.04-1.69) but not ATE (aRR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.56-1.16) was significantly higher in those exposed to all TOIs pooled together vs those with no exposure. Among individual drugs, ICIs were significantly associated with VTE (aRR, 1.45; 95% CI, 1.01-2.07). Also noted were significant associations between VTE and active and progressing cancer (aRR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.01-2.03), history of VTE (aRR, 3.10; 95% CI, 2.38-4.04), and high-risk site of cancer (aRR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.14-1.75). Black patients had a higher risk of TEEs (aRR, 1.24; 95% CI, 1.03-1.50) than White patients. Patients with TEEs had high intensive care unit admission (46%) and mechanical ventilation (31%) rates. Relative risk of death in patients with TEEs was higher in those exposed to TOIs vs not (aRR, 1.12; 95% CI, 0.91-1.38) and was significantly associated with poor performance status (aRR, 1.77; 95% CI, 1.30-2.40) and active/progressing cancer (aRR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.13-2.13).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this cohort study, relative risk of developing VTE was high among patients receiving TOIs and varied by the type of therapy, underlying risk factors, and demographics, such as race and ethnicity. These findings highlight the need for close monitoring and perhaps personalized thromboprophylaxis to prevent morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19–related thromboembolism in patients with cancer.

ImportanceCytokine storm due to COVID-19 can cause high morbidity and mortality and may be more common in patients with cancer treated with immunotherapy (IO) due to immune system activation.ObjectiveTo determine the association of baseline immunosuppression and/or IO-based therapies with COVID-19 severity and cytokine storm in patients with cancer.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis registry-based retrospective cohort study included 12 046 patients reported to the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium (CCC19) registry from March 2020 to May 2022. The CCC19 registry is a centralized international multi-institutional registry of patients with COVID-19 with a current or past diagnosis of cancer. Records analyzed included patients with active or previous cancer who had a laboratory-confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2 by polymerase chain reaction and/or serologic findings.ExposuresImmunosuppression due to therapy; systemic anticancer therapy (IO or non-IO).Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was a 5-level ordinal scale of COVID-19 severity: no complications; hospitalized without requiring oxygen; hospitalized and required oxygen; intensive care unit admission and/or mechanical ventilation; death. The secondary outcome was the occurrence of cytokine storm.ResultsThe median age of the entire cohort was 65 years (interquartile range [IQR], 54-74) years and 6359 patients were female (52.8%) and 6598 (54.8%) were non-Hispanic White. A total of 599 (5.0%) patients received IO, whereas 4327 (35.9%) received non-IO systemic anticancer therapies, and 7120 (59.1%) did not receive any antineoplastic regimen within 3 months prior to COVID-19 diagnosis. Although no difference in COVID-19 severity and cytokine storm was found in the IO group compared with the untreated group in the total cohort (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.80; 95% CI, 0.56-1.13, and aOR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.41-1.93, respectively), patients with baseline immunosuppression treated with IO (vs untreated) had worse COVID-19 severity and cytokine storm (aOR, 3.33; 95% CI, 1.38-8.01, and aOR, 4.41; 95% CI, 1.71-11.38, respectively). Patients with immunosuppression receiving non-IO therapies (vs untreated) also had worse COVID-19 severity (aOR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.36-2.35) and cytokine storm (aOR, 2.32; 95% CI, 1.42-3.79).Conclusions and RelevanceThis cohort study found that in patients with cancer and COVID-19, administration of systemic anticancer therapies, especially IO, in the context of baseline immunosuppression was associated with severe clinical outcomes and the development of cytokine storm.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04354701

307 Background: In the US, more than 12,000 people die from ovarian cancer annually. Although new treatments have recently become available, ovarian cancer care delivery remains suboptimal. The Association of Community Cancer Centers (ACCC) developed a series of initiatives to improve the quality of care for patients with ovarian cancer. In Phase I, ACCC evaluated the needs of cancer programs, conducted 3 quality improvement (QI) workshops, and developed expert-driven Quality of Care recommendations to aid cancer programs in self-assessment and quality improvement. In Phase II, ACCC invited programs to self-assess their level of care using the Quality of Care recommendations. Methods: In 2022, ACCC surveyed 7 ovarian cancer programs across the US. Developed by a multidisciplinary expert steering committee, the 26-question survey assessed the patient populations served, services provided, diagnostic evaluations performed, access to molecular testing, and a self-assessment of quality care delivery and interest in conducting QI projects related to self-identified needs. The survey was administered in Qualtrics and summarized using descriptive statistics. Results: Surveys were completed by 1 community, 2 comprehensive community, 2 hospital-associated, 1 academic comprehensive, and 1 NCI-designated comprehensive cancer programs. The median annual ovarian cases was 40 [range: 2 to 68]. The 7 programs serve diverse racial/ethnic distribution of patients with ovarian cancer ranging from 55% Black to 60% Asian and 30% Pacific Islander. Five programs have a multidisciplinary team for ovarian cancer. All 5 multidisciplinary teams included gynecologic oncology and pathology; 3 teams also included medical oncology and or radiology colleague(s). Sites assessed their level of care for 7 domains of quality care from 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest). The average score was 4.0 for Care Coordination and Patient Education, Treatment Planning, and Disease Surveillance. Diagnosis and Initial Management scored on average 3.8, Equity in Care 3.25, Prevention and Screening 3.25, and Quality of Life 3.2. Sites ranked areas of interest for future QI projects (1 = area of most interest, 7 = area of least interest). The highest ranked domains were Care Coordination and Patient Education as well as Diagnosis and Initial management (average rankings 2.8). These were followed by Quality of Life (average 3.0), Prevention and Screening (Average 3.8), Treatment Planning (Average 4.4), Equity in Care (Average 5.0), and Disease Surveillance (Average 6.2). Conclusions: This assessment will be used to identify 4 additional sites for Phase II QI workshops. Findings from these projects will be combined, summarized, and disseminated to inform future education opportunities and QI initiatives. This initiative aims to help organize and standardize the care of patients with ovarian cancer and improve patient care coordination.
