Comprehensive geriatric assessment and decision-making in older men with incurable but manageable (chronic) cancer
2019
Purpose
In older cancer patients, treatment decision-making is often complex. A comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is an established tool used in geriatric medicine to identify unmet need requiring intervention. This study aimed to assess whether using a CGA in older male cancer patients with incurable but manageable disease provides information that would alter a cancer clinician’s intended management plan. Acceptability and feasibility were secondary aims.
