NCI COVID-19 in Cancer Patients, NCCAPS Study (1649668)
Overall Recruitment Status: Active, enrollment completed
 
Official Title
NCI COVID-19 in Cancer Patients Study (NCCAPS): A Longitudinal Natural History Study
 
Region Sponsors
Colorado
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
 
Acronym KP IRB No.
1649668
 
Study Type Phase
Prospective Cohort Study with Direct Patient Contact
 
Study Population Description
Child, Adult and Older Adult with a prior or current cancer diagnosis and with a positive SARS CoV-2 test within 14 days of enrollment
 
Purpose
This study collects blood samples, medical information, and medical images from patients who are being treated for cancer and have a positive test for SARS CoV-2, the new coronavirus that causes the disease called COVID-19. Collecting blood samples, medical information, and medical images may help researchers determine how COVID-19 affects the outcomes of patients undergoing cancer treatment and how having cancer affects COVID-19.
 
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Characterize patient factors, such as pre-existing comorbidities, cancer type and treatment, and demographic factors, associated with short- and long-term outcomes of coronavirus 2 (COVID-19), including symptoms, severity, and fatality, in adult and pediatric cancer patients undergoing treatment. II. Describe cancer treatment modifications made in response to COVID-19 in adult and pediatric patients, including dose adjustments, changes in symptom management, or temporary or permanent cessation. III. Evaluate the association of COVID-19 with cancer outcomes in adult patient subgroups defined by clinico-pathologic characteristics and in pediatric patients. CORRELATIVE OBJECTIVES: I. Future correlative biomarker objectives will include assessment of the development of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) antibodies, description of the trajectory of cytokine abnormalities, description of coagulopathies, and genome-wide association studies to define polymorphisms associated with severe COVID-19. II. Collection and banking of research blood specimens and radiological images for future research. PATIENT-REPORTED HEALTH-RELATED QUALITY OF LIFE OBJECTIVES: I. Describe patient-reported short-and long-term physical health, defined as a composite of physical function, pain interference and intensity, and ability to participate in social roles and activities, as measured by the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)-29 version (v)2.0 profile in adult cancer patients diagnosed with COVID-19. (Primary) II. Describe patient-reported short-and long-term symptoms (anxiety, depression, and dyspnea) and function (cognitive function and social isolation) in adult cancer patients diagnosed with COVID-19. (Secondary) III. Assess how patient-reported physical health (primary objective) and symptoms and function (secondary objective) in adult cancer patients vary by COVID-19 symptom burden, cancer type, cancer treatment, comorbidities, tobacco use, body mass index, and demographic characteristics.

Inclusion Criteria
  • STEP 0 ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA:
  • Patient must have a prior or current cancer diagnosis (e.g., solid tumor or hematologic malignancy) that fits into any one of the following categories: * Patient is receiving active treatment (defined as current treatment or treatment within the past 6 weeks) or will begin receiving treatment within the next 2 weeks for any central nervous system (CNS) or hematologic malignancy or metastatic (stage IV) solid tumor. Eligible treatment types for hematologic malignancy or metastatic cancer are chemotherapy, immunotherapy, monoclonal antibody therapy (e.g., rituximab, trastuzumab, cetuximab), targeted therapy (e.g., BRAF/MEK inhibitor, EGF-R inhibitor), endocrine therapy, radiation therapy, or targeted radionuclide therapy, or * Patient is receiving treatment (defined as current treatment or treatment within the past 6 weeks) or will begin receiving treatment within the next 2 weeks for non-metastatic (stage I-III) solid tumor. Eligible treatment types for non-metastatic cancer patients are intravenous chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation therapy, targeted radionuclide therapy, or monoclonal antibody therapy, except trastuzumab/pertuzumab if not accompanied by chemotherapy, or * Patient has received an allogenic stem cell transplant or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell or other modified cellular therapy at any time, or * Patient is currently receiving treatment or prophylaxis for graft versus (vs.) host disease, or * Patient has received an autologous bone marrow transplant within the past 2 years
