The high death rates of RT-PCR negative cancer patients observed in our series may result from a sensitivity of SARS-COV-2 diagnostic assays (false negativity), and also other undocumented infections in the context of patients with a progressive cancer. From these different series and works, it can be concluded that cancer patients under active treatment are at high risk of lethal complications when presenting with symptoms resembling those of COVID -19 and requiring hospitalisation even in the absence of documented SARS-COV-2 infection.
