Brief Summary  

COVID-19 pandemic has challenged and changed the delivery of anti-cancer therapy. However there remain uncertainty of the safety of anti-cancer systemic therapy among medical

oncologist. The recommendations lack evidence and are mainly consensus statements.  We continue to provide anti-cancer therapy for several reasons: most cases being advanced,

symptomatic, high disease burden, uncertainty of duration of ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The idea of this retrospective analysis is to share the chemotherapy experience in the setting of resource limitation. The result may guide about the safety of anti-cancer systemic therapy during COVID-19 pandemic. It may help further in decision making for anti-cancer systemic therapy.
