Background: We describe cancer patients with coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19)
infection treated at the Piacenza's general hospital (north Italy). Materials &
methods: 25 cancer patients infected by COVID-19 admitted at the Piacenza's
general hospital from 21 February to 18 March 2020. Outcome from the infection
were compared with infected noncancer patients. Results: 20 patients (80%) were
treated with antiviral therapy and hydroxychloroquine and five (20%) received
hydroxychloroquine alone. Nine (36%) patients died, while 16 (64%) overcome the
infection. In the control group the mortality was 16.13% and the overcome from
infection was 83.87%. Conclusion: Mortality for COVID-19 was greater in cancer
patients when compared with noncancer patients, worse prognosis for older age,
women and patients treated with hydroxychloroquine alone. However, the
comparisons did not reach statistical significance in most cases. This could be
due to the small sample size that is the main limitation of the study.
