Purpose: Immunocompromised individuals, such as those diagnosed with cancer, are at a signi cantly higher risk for severe illness and mortality when infected with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) than the general population. Two oral antiviral treatments are approved for COVID-19: Paxlovid® (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) and Lagevrio® (molnupiravir). There is a paucity of data regarding the bene t from these antivirals among immunocompromised patients with cancer, and recent studies have questioned their e cacy among vaccinated patients, even those with risk factors for severe COVID-19. Methods: We evaluated the e cacy and safety of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir and molnupiravir in preventing severe illness and death using our database of 457 patients with cancer and COVID-19 from Brown University-a liated hospitals. 67 patients received nirmatrelvir/ritonavir or molnupiravir and were compared to 56 concurrent controls who received no antiviral treatment despite being eligible to receive it. Results: Administration of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir or molnupiravir was associated with improved survival and lower 90-day all-cause and COVID-19-attributed mortality (p<0.05) and with lower peak O2 requirements (ordinal odds ratio [OR] 1.52, 95% con dence interval [CI] 0.92-2.56). Conclusion: Acknowledging the small size of our sample as a limitation, we concluded that early antiviral treatment might be bene cial to immunocompromised individuals, particularly those with cancer, when infected with SARS-CoV-2. Larger-scale, well-strati ed studies are needed in this patient population.
