Scientists probe shared link between severe COVID and blood cancers

NCT ID NCT04953312

Summary

This study aimed to understand how severe COVID-19 disrupts the body's ability to make new blood cells, a process called emergency hematopoiesis. Researchers planned to compare blood cell samples from three groups: patients with severe COVID-19, patients with certain chronic blood cancers, and healthy people. The goal was to learn how a specific protein, calprotectin, might drive this disruption, to identify potential future treatment targets. The study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
