  • The severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptoms and outcomes vary immensely among patients Predicting disease progression and managing disease symptoms is even more challenging in cancer patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Cancer therapies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy, often suppress the immune system, rendering cancer patients more susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection and the development of severe complications However, data on the effects of immunosuppression on COVID-19 outcomes in cancer patients remain limited Further investigations are warranted to better understand the implications of SARS-CoV-2 infection in cancer patients, particularly those that are immunocompromised In this review, we outline the current knowledge of the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection in cancer patients
