  • Background: The incidence and prognosis of SARS-CoV-2-positive cancer patients on active oncologic treatment remain unknown. Retrospective data from China reported higher incidence and poorer outcomes with respect to the general population. We aimed to describe the real-word incidence of SARS-CoV-2 in cancer patients and the impact of oncologic therapies on the infection. Materials & Methods: In this study, we analysed all consecutive cancer patients with solid tumours undergoing active intravenous treatment (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, alone or in combination) between 21 February and 30 April 2020, in a high-volume cancer centre in Lombardy, Italy. We focused on SARS-CoV-2-positive patients, reporting on the clinical characteristics of the cancer and the infection. Results: We registered 17 SARS-CoV-2-positive patients among 1267 cancer patients on active treatment, resulting in an incidence of 1.3%. The median age was 69.5 years (range 43-79). Fourteen patients (82%) required hospitalisation for COVID-19 with a median in-hospital stay of 11.5 days (range 3-58). Fourteen of the seventeen (82%) were treated for locally advanced or metastatic disease. We could not demonstrate any correlation between SARS-CoV-2 infection and tumour or treatment type. The COVID-19-related fatality rate was 29% (5/17), which was higher than that of the general population cared for in our centre (20%). Conclusions: Active oncologic treatments do not represent a risk factor for SARS-CoV-2 infection in cancer patients. However, the prognosis of infected cancer patients appears to be worse compared with that of the non-oncologic population. Given the low number of SARS-CoV-2-positive cases and the uncertainties in risk factors that may have an impact on the prognosis, we advocate for the continuum of cancer care even during the current pandemic.
