This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.
This study evaluates the association between a comprehensive geriatric assessment and laboratory biomarkers with the side effects of chemotherapy in older patients with multiple myeloma (MM). The comprehensive geriatric assessment is a tool that can help to determine how fit a patient is. It is composed of a series of questions and tests designed for older people to evaluate their physical function, mental status, mental health, nutritional status, social support, level of social activity, and the presence of other medical problems. In addition to geriatric assessment domains, laboratory biomarkers may provide information on physiologic dysfunction as a measure for evaluation of frailty in the cancer setting. This study will help researchers in the future by predicting which patients will have more side effects with chemotherapy based on their comprehensive geriatric assessment and laboratory biomarkers, which will allow adjustments to treatment in older adult patients with MM.
The Role of the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment in Elderly Patients with Multiple Myeloma: a Single Center Prospective Study
Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
