Researchers hunt for clues: why some blood cancer patients get hit harder by COVID-19

NCT ID NCT07204366

Summary

This study aims to understand why some patients with a group of blood cancers called MPNs experience severe COVID-19. Researchers are checking the blood of 219 MPN patients for specific proteins called autoantibodies that might weaken the body's early virus defense. The goal is to see if having these proteins is linked to worse COVID-19 outcomes in this patient group.
