Abstract

e18788 Background: Patients (pts) with cancer have a high risk of venous thromboembolic (VTE) complications, further enhanced by anti-cancer treatments, specifically hormonal therapies, targeted therapies (VEGF inhibitors, other TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). We hypothesized that high-risk therapies would predispose pts with cancer and COVID-19 to higher risk of VTE complications. Methods: CCC19 is the largest international registry (NCT04354701) recording outcomes of pts with cancer and COVID-19. The registry was queried for hospitalized pts who developed VTE and received systemic cancer treatment in the year prior to COVID-19. Incidence of VTE was analyzed as the primary endpoint; 30-day any cause mortality & need for ICU admission at baseline were secondary endpoints in pts with and without VTE respectively. Pts were stratified by treatment type and time from last treatment dose
