Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Coexisting Cancer and COVID-19 Mortality

Barnes, Justin M. ; Chino, Junzo P. ; Chino, Fumiko

Patients with cancer during the COVID-19 pandemic faced impaired access to care and increased risk of severe infection, which may have increased risk of death from co-existing cancer and COVID-19.1,2 There are well-documented racial disparities in pre-pandemic cancer outcomes and in risk of COVID-19 infection, but data are more limited assessing outcomes disparities for patients with cancer during the pandemic, particularly by underlying cause of death.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Italian population-based cancer screening activities and test coverage: results from national cross-sectional repeated surveys in 2020

Giorgi Rossi, Paolo ; Carrozzi, Giuliano ; Falini, Patrizia ; Sampaolo, Letizia ; GORINI, Giuseppe ; Zorzi, Manuel ; Armaroli, Paola ; Senore, Carlo ; Sassoli de Bianchi, Priscilla ; Masocco, Maria ; Zappa, Marco ; Battisti, Francesca ; Mantellini, Paola

Background: In Italy, Regions have the mandate to implement population-based screening programs for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer. From March to May 2020, a severe lockdown was imposed due to the COVID-19 pandemic by the Italian Ministry of Health, with the suspension of screening programs. This paper describes the impact of the pandemic on Italian screening activities and test coverage in 2020 overall and by socio-economic characteristics. Methods: The regional number of subjects [...]

Hirst, Jennifer ; Mi, Emma ; Copland, Emma ; Patone, Martina ; Coupland, Carol ; Hippisley-Cox, Julia

Background: People with blood cancers have increased risk of severe outcomes from COVID-19 and were prioritised for vaccination. Methods: Individuals in the QResearch database aged 12 years and above on 1st December 2020 were included in the analysis. Kaplan-Meier analysis described time to COVID-19 vaccine uptake in people with blood cancer and other high-risk disorders. Cox regression was used to identify factors associated with vaccine uptake in people with blood cancer. Results: The [...]

Role of chest CT scan in patients with preexisting cancer and COVID-19 pneumonia

Khorasanizadeh, Faezeh ; Kaviani, Soori ; Salamroudi, Shadi ; Seyyedsalehi, Monireh Sadat ; Gity, Masoumeh ; Zendehdel, Kazem

Detection of COVID-19 in cancer patients is challenging due to probable preexisting pulmonary infiltration caused by many infectious and non-infectious etiologies. We evaluated chest CT scan findings of COVID-19 pneumonia in cancer patients and explored its prognostic role in mortality.

Breast Cancer Management in the Era of Covid-19; Key Issues, Contemporary Strategies, and Future Implications

Prodhan ASU, ; Islam DZ , ; Khandker SS , ; Jamiruddin MR , ; Abdullah A, ; Godman B , ; Opanga S, Kumar S , ; Sharma P , ; Adnan N , ; Pisana A, ; Haque M

During the COVID-19 pandemic, several priority diseases were not getting sufficient attention. Whilst breast cancer is a fatal disease affecting millions worldwide, identification and management of these patients did not initially attract critical attention to minimize the impact of lockdown, post-lockdown, and other measures. Breast cancer patients’ conditions may not remain stable without proper care, worsening their prognosis. Proper care includes the timely instigation of surgery, systemic [...]

COVID-19 vaccination in patients with cancer receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Ruiz, Juan Ignacio ; Lopez-Olivo, Maria Angeles ; Geng, Yimin ; Suarez-Almazor, Maria E

Background : Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) can cause off-target inflammatory and immune-related adverse events (irAE). Conceivably, COVID-19 vaccination could trigger an inflammatory and immune response that could induce or aggravate irAE. Methods : The objective of this systematic review is to appraise the efficacy and safety of COVID-19 vaccination in patients with cancer treated with ICI. The literature search was performed in PubMed and Embase in English from December 2019 to February [...]

Background: Long-term safety and efficacy of BBIBP-CorV vaccine especially in individuals with chronic diseases, like cancer, is under investigation. In the present prospective study, we aimed to evaluate severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) antibody response with BBIBP-CorV vaccine in Iranian cancer patients. Methods: All the patients registered to receive BBIBP-CorV (Sinopharm) vaccine were divided into two groups of with (cases = 107) and without (controls = 45) [...]

Refusal of vaccination against influenza and COVID-19 in patients with solid cancers: from bio-ethical issues to solutions

Stoeklé, Henri-Corto ; Sekkate, Sakina ; Vallée, Alexandre ; Beuzeboc, Philippe ; Hervé, Christian

In 2022, Di Noia et al (1) and Gong et al (2) demonstrated a real benefit of full vaccination against COVID-19 in patients treated for solid cancers. However, refusal remains a persistent problem that cannot be ignored in this population. This phenomenon is not specific to COVID-19. In 2008, Loulergue et al reported a rate of anti-flu vaccination of only about 30%, despite the expected protective effects of such vaccination, in a single-center cohort of 122 patients treated for solid cancers in [...]

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Cancer Screening Delays

Xiaochen Zhang ; Mohamed I. Elsaid ; Cecilia DeGraffinreid ; Victoria L. Champion ; Electra D. Paskett ; for the Impact of COVID-19 on Behaviors across the Cancer Control Continuum in Ohio group

PURPOSE: To examine delays in cancer screenings during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: Participants from previous studies (N = 32,989) with permissions to be recontacted were invited to complete a survey between June and November 2020. Participants (n = 7,115) who met the age range for cancer screenings were included. Participants were asked if they planned to have and then if they postponed a scheduled mammogram, Pap test, stool blood test, colonoscopy, or human papillomavirus (HPV) test. [...]

Menée à partir de données 1985-2010 portant sur 812 patients atteints d'un lymphome ou d'un cancer du sein (âge moyen : 52,6 ans) et sur 1 384 témoins, cette étude analyse le risque d'insuffisance cardiaque congestive en lien avec les traitements par anthracyclines

Association of Anthracycline With Heart Failure in Patients Treated for Breast Cancer or Lymphoma, 1985-2010

Importance : Anthracyclines increase the risk for congestive heart failure (CHF); however, long-term cumulative incidence and risk factors for CHF after anthracycline therapy are not well defined in population-based studies. Objective : To compare the long-term cumulative incidence of CHF in patients with breast cancer or lymphoma treated with anthracycline therapy compared with healthy controls from the same community. Design, Setting, and Participants : This retrospective population-based [...]

Heart Failure in Patients With Cancer Treated With Anthracyclines—Revisiting the Foundation of Cardio-Oncology

Fradley, Michael G.

Adverse cardiovascular events are an increasingly recognized problem for patients with cancer and individuals in remission, associated with both the shared risk factors that exist between these diseases as well as from the cancer treatments themselves. While any form of cardiovascular disease can develop, significant attention has been given to congestive heart failure (CHF), also known as cancer treatment–related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD), given its substantial impact on morbidity and [...]
