Abstract: BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to determine and compare the added prognostic value of screening tools, geriatric assessment (GA) components, and GA summaries to clinical information for overall survival (OS) in older patients with cancer. METHODS: A screening and a 10-item GA were systematically performed in patients ≥70 years old with cancer. Cox regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the added prognostic value for OS of screening tools, GA, and GA summaries to clinical information (age, stage, … Show more

“…27 When taken together, this 10-item GA is a GA summary that integrates the results of every GA component mentioned above and thus captures the multidimensional GA as a whole evaluating the global health of the older patient with cancer. 4 Therefore, in the current study, we primarily compared the added prognostic value of the 10-item GA with that of laboratory parameters. In our previous article, we demonstrated that the 10-item GA provides more prognostic information than the individual GA components and screening tools because GA summaries are likely better at capturing the multidimensional process of aging.…”
