Description of the Population With Genitourinary Tumors and COVID-19

The identification of patients with genitourinary tumors who suffer from the infection by the Serious Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona-Virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus can represent multiple benefits both for themselves and for health professionals and the health system itself. We would be able to know more precisely the clinical evolution of these type of patient, to know their prognosis and being capable to select the most appropriate treatment modality for future pandemics.

SOGUG-COVID is an observational prospective-retrospective trial purely epidemiological, that aims to describe the population with genitourinary tumors (urothelial cancer, prostate cancer, testicular cancer and kidney cancer) infected by COrona VIrus Disease 19 (COVID-19) treated in Spanish hospitals, learn about the clinical presentation, therapeutic evolution and prognosis of said intercurrent infectious process, as well as its possible relationship with different clinical and therapeutic factors.

Key information

About this study

The study will be carried out in Spanish hospitals, with principal investigators belonging to the medical oncology services of the SOGUG group (Spanish Group of Genitourinary Oncology), who will act as promoter. Once the patients have been selected, the variables of interest will be collected and studied. The main variables to record will be:

  • Patient characteristics
  • Hospital center where the patient is recruited
  • Pathological history:

Concomitant pathology Usual drug treatment

  • Tumor pathology:

Tumor type, histology, and stage (initial and at diagnosis of infection) Cancer diagnosis date Active cancer treatment or follow-up Participation in clinical trial Type of treatment most recently received for the infection (Surgery; Radiotherapy; Chemotherapy, Immunotherapy ...) Treatment lines, initiation and last dose received of the most recent most recent cancer treatment

  • COVID-19 infection:

Confirmation date of COVID-19 infection PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) diagnostic test Immunoglobulin G (IgG) or Immunoglobulin M (IgM) serological diagnostic test Present symptoms, analytical alterations, thrombosis associated with COVID-19 infection, complications of infection Date of onset and disappearance of symptoms Days of fever and cough Radiological examination at the time of greatest severity Treatments received for COVID-19 Status upon discharge Date of discharge / exitus Negative presence of virus by PCR and PCR date

  • For patients who are receiving or have received immunotherapy treatments, additional information will be collected:

Immunotherapy treatment line and type Start / end date and last dose previous infection of the treatment with immunotherapy Adverse effects

  • Prospective follow-up data (6 months from patient inclusion):

Date of start or restart of cancer treatment after infection Change / suspension of cancer treatment after COVID-19 Date of surgery in neoadjuvant patients Recurrence of COVID-19 Best response obtained Date of progression to cancer treatment Current status and date of last contact The study will use the data obtained from the patient's medical history, with no plans to use other sources.

The assignment of a patient to a specific therapeutic strategy has already been decided in advance by the usual clinical practice of medicine; The decision to prescribe a specific treatment is clearly dissociated from the decision to include a patient in the study. No intervention will be applied to patients, whether diagnostic or follow-up, that is not the usual clinical practice. Epidemiological methods will be used to analyze the collected data.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients ≥18 years old.
  • Diagnosed with genitourinary cancer (urothelial, kidney, prostate and germ).
  • COVID-19 infection prior to cancer treatment, during treatment, or after treatment.
  • The COVID-19 infection must be confirmed by PCR or serology, regardless of whether or not the patient requires hospitalization for the infection, additionally, a clinical and / or radiological determination must be available in those patients who present symptoms.

Exclusion criteria

  • Not applicable

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Age at Baseline

    Time frame: Baseline, at the time of inclusion

    Describe the population infected by COVID-19 with genitourinary tumors (urothelial cancer, prostate cancer, testicular cancer and kidney cancer) treated in Spanish hospitals, know the clinical presentation: Spcifically here we reported the Age

  2. Frequency of Complications of COVID-19 Intercurrent Infection

    Time frame: Through study completion, average 1 year

    Percentage of patients with complications associated to COVID-19 infection (classified by type and severity)

  3. Frequency of Complications of COVID-19 Infection (Pneumonia) Stratified by Treatment

    Time frame: Through study completion, average 1 year

    To assess the possible relationship of the different oncological treatments administered to these patients with the clinical evolution of the COVID-19 infection. Complications will be classified by type and severity in groups of patients stratified by the oncological treatment received.

  4. Frequency of Complications of COVID-19 Infection in Patients With Genitourinary Cancer Stratified by Anti-androgenic Oncological Treatment

    Time frame: Through study completion, average 1 year

    To evaluate in patients with Genitourinary Cancer the impact of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and new antiandrogenic agents (NAH) with or without corticosteroids on the infection COVID-19 as mean of frequency in complications of COVID-19 infection classified by type and severity

  5. Frequency of Complications of COVID-19 Infection Stratified by Treatment (Immunotherapy vs no Immunotherapy)

    Time frame: Through study completion, average 1 year

    To assess the possible relationship of the different oncological treatments administered to these patients with the clinical evolution of the COVID-19 infection. Complications will be classified by type and severity in groups of patients stratified by the oncological treatment received.

  6. Frequency of Adverse Events Related to Immunotherapy Targeted to Cancer (Classified by Type and Severity)

    Time frame: Through study completion, average 1 year. Measured at 3 scenarios (during treatment, after treatment and therapies indicated after infection has passed)

    To specifically assess the impact of COVID-19 infection on the toxicity of immunotherapy treatment (mainly pneumonitis) and the impact of immunotherapy on the evolution of the infectious picture in patients with tumors of genitourinary origin. three different scenarios: during treatment, after treatment and in patients who receive treatment after the infection has passed.

Secondary outcomes

  1. COVID-19 Mortality Rate in Patients With Genitourinary Cancer

    Time frame: Through study completion, average 1 year

    To assess the mortality associated with COVID-19 infection in the population with genitourinary tumors. Percentage of patients alive / dead at discharge.

  2. COVID-19 Complication Rate in Patients With Genitourinary Cancer

    Time frame: Through study completion, average 1 year

    Evaluate the rate (percentage) of complications that have required hospital admission and / or ICU treatment. Complications will be classified by type and severity and represented as percentage of patients presenting them.

    delays / modifications in cancer follow-up or treatment regimens.

  9. Progression Free Survival in Patients With Genitourinary Tumors That Suffered COVID-19, Patients With a First Line Treatment Ongoing at the Moment of COVID Infection

    Time frame: From start of treatment until progression or death, up to 130 months

    It is expected to obtain data on time to progression and overall survival of cancer patients, which can be compared with the reference values for each type of tumor pathology.

    PROGRESSION FREE SURVIVAL (FIRST LINE IN METASTATIC OR ADVANCED SETTING) The date of treatment start (treatment ongoing at the moment of COVID infection) is taken as the start date of follow-up. Only patients with a first line treatment ongoing at the moment of COVID infection were analyzed.

  10. Overall Survival in Patients With Genitourinary Tumors That Suffered COVID-19

    Time frame: From start of treatment until progression or death, up to 130 months

    It is expected to obtain data on time to progression and overall survival of cancer patients, which can be compared with the reference values for each type of tumor pathology.

    For the calculation of overall survival, it is taken from the date of cancer diagnosis to the date of death (at any time, not only in a prospective part).
