Collaborative Efforts Lead to the Launch of the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium Registry

Today, we passed the mic to Petros Grivas, MD, PhD, who moderated a discussion on a multi-institutional registry that has been created to capture data from healthcare professionals on patients with cancer who have suspected or confirmed diagnoses of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. Joining Dr. Grivas is Jeremy L. Warner, MD, MS, principal investigator of the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium Registry and an associate professor of medicine and biomedical informatics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, as well as Ali R. Khaki, MD, a fellow at the University of Washington and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, who discussed the rationale for the registry and the impact it could have on the trajectory of the COVID-19 pandemic with regard to patients with cancer.
