Clinical features and outcomes of COVID-19 in patients with solid tumors: Turkish National Registry Data
We present demographic, clinical, laboratory characteristics and
outcomes of the patients with solid malignancies and novel coronavirus
disease (COVID-19) collected from the National COVID-19 Registry of
Turkey. A total of 1523 patients with a current or past diagnosis of
solid tumors and diagnosed with COVID-19 (confirmed with PCR) between 11
March and 20 May 2020 were included. The primary outcome was 30-day
mortality. Median age was 61 (range: 18-94), and 752 (49\%) were male.
The most common types of cancers were breast (19.8\%), prostate (10.9\%)
and colorectal cancer (10.8\%). 65\% of the patients had at least one
comorbidity. At least one COVID-19-directed therapy was given in 73\% of
the patients.. Hospitalization rate of the patients was 56.6\% and
intensive care unit admission rate was 11.4\%. Seventy-seven (5.1\%)
patients died within 30 days of diagnosis. The first multivariate model
which included only the demographic and clinical characteristics showed
older age, male gender and presence of diabetes and receipt of cytotoxic
therapy to be associated with increased 30-day mortality, while breast
and prostate cancer diagnoses were associated with lower 30-day
mortality. In the second set, we further included laboratory parameters.
The presence of leukocytosis (OR 6.7, 95\% CI 3.3-13.7, P < .001),
lymphocytopenia (OR 3,1, 95\% CI 1,6-6,1, P = .001) and thrombocytopenia
(OR 3,4 95\% CI 1,5-8,1, P = .005) were found to be associated with
increased 30-day mortality. Relatively lower mortality compared to
Western countries and China mainly results from differences in baseline
risk factors but may also implicate the importance of intensive
supportive care
