General measures to keep COVID\u201019\u2013free cancer divisions have been adopted worldwide. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of triage to identify COVID\u201019 among patients with cancer.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>From March 20 to April 17, 2020, data were collected from patients who were treated or followed at the authors' institution in a prospective clinical trial. The primary endpoint was to estimate the cumulative incidence of COVID\u201019\u2013positive patients who were identified using a triage process through the aid of medical and patient questionnaires. Based on a diagnostic algorithm, patients with suspect symptoms underwent an infectious disease specialist's evaluation and a COVID\u201019 swab. Serologic tests were proposed for patients who had symptoms or altered laboratory tests that did not fall into the diagnostic algorithm but were suspicious for COVID\u201019.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall, 562 patients were enrolled. Six patients (1%) were diagnosed with COVID\u201019, of whom 4 (67%) had the disease detected through telehealth triage, and 2 patients (33%) without suspect symptoms at triage had the disease detected later. Seventy\u2010one patients (13%) had suspect symptoms and\/or altered laboratory tests that were not included in the diagnostic algorithm and, of these, 47 patients (73%) underwent testing for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 antibody: 6 (13%) were positive for IgG (n = 5) or for both IgM and IgG (n = 1), and antibody tests were negative in the remaining 41 patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The triage process had a positive effect on the detection of COVID\u201019 in patients with cancer. Telehealth triage was helpful in detecting suspect patients and to keep a COVID\u201019\u2013free cancer center. The overall incidence of COVID\u201019 diagnosis (1%) and antibody positivity (13%) in patients with suspect symptoms was similar to that observed in the general
