Clinical Trials and Studies
COVID-19 Registries for Hematologic Conditions
The ASH Research Collaborative’s (ASH RC) Data Hub is capturing data on people who test positive for COVID-19 and have been or are currently being treated for a hematologic condition. As data are received, near real-time observational data summaries are reported for clinicians on the front line of the COVID-19 pandemic. Clinicians and other health care providers worldwide are invited to enter de-identified data on all confirmed COVID-19 cases for hematology patients, regardless of recovery or active treatment status. Online data entry takes approximately 5 minutes to complete.
This registry is designed to capture pediatric and adult COVID-19 cases that are occurring across the world in patients living with sickle cell disease.
A consortium of over 100 cancer centers and other organizations who have come together to collect data about cancer patients who have been infected with COVID-19.
