Geriatric oncology

Geriatric oncology encompasses changes in tumour and patient biology as well as a comprehensive evaluation of the elderly person with the goal of determining life expectancy, treatment tolerance, the risk of cancer-related complications, and the need for rehabilitative intervention. The two poles of preventative and therapeutic interventions are biological changes and CGA. Treatment-related guidelines may aid in the establishment of a consistent approach to older cancer patients, easing the interpretation of clinical data. A number of initiatives launched in the last five years promote clinical research in older cancer patients and promise to close gaps in clinical evidence. In any case, age alone should never be considered a barrier to effective cancer treatment.
