Severity of COVID-19 in children with cancer: Report from the United Kingdom Paediatric Coronavirus Cancer Monitoring Project

Gerard C. Millen et al.

Summary: This study aimed to provide evidence on the incidence and outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 in children with cancer attending hospitals in the UK. The study found that children with cancer appear to have similar risk of severe SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to the general pediatric population, with an estimated incidence of 3% in this group. This supports the continued delivery of standard treatment for children with cancer during the pandemic.

Assessment of 135 794 Pediatric Patients Tested for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Across the United States

L. Charles Bailey et al.

Summary: This cohort study of US pediatric patients found low rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection, with mild clinical manifestations. Infection was associated with Black, Hispanic, and Asian race/ethnicity, adolescence and young adulthood, as well as non-respiratory chronic medical conditions. The study suggests higher concern may be warranted for patients with complex medical conditions or minority race/ethnicity.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic led to a scarcity of information on how it affects children with cancer, prompting the development of the Global COVID-19 Observatory and Resource Center for Childhood Cancer by the International Society of Pediatric Oncology and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The center's three components, Resource Library, Global Registry, and Collaboration Space, work together to rapidly generate and transfer knowledge throughout the community.

Maria Madeleine Ruethrich et al.

Multicenter Interim Guidance on Use of Antivirals for Children With Coronavirus Disease 2019/Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2

Kathleen Chiotos et al.

Summary: Although COVID-19 is usually mild in children, some may develop severe or critical illness. Supportive care is typically enough for most cases, but for severe cases, remdesivir is suggested, with a duration of 5 days. It is not recommended to use hydroxychloroquine or other protease inhibitors for COVID-19 in children.
