What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. impact of memory impairment

    Assessing the impact of memory impairment induced by chemotherapy and study their evolution over time, with patients over 65 years treated in the adjuvant setting for breast cancer.

    Evaluated by auto-questionnary an tests with a neuropsychologist

    Measured: Before chemotherapy (baseline), end of chemotherapy and follow-up up to 24 months after chemotherapy

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. correlations between disorders of cognitive functions and parameters of quality of life

    Studying the correlations between disorders of cognitive functions and parameters of quality of life

    Measured: Before chemotherapy (baseline), end of chemotherapy and follow-up up to 24 months after chemotherapy

  2. Relationship between performance and onco-geriatric cognitive

    Examine the relationship between performance and onco-geriatric cognitive

    Measured: Before chemotherapy (baseline), end of chemotherapy and follow-up up to 24 months after chemotherapy

  3. Biological disturbances

    Search for biological disturbances may be related to cognitive impairment observed

    Measured: Before chemotherapy (baseline), end of chemotherapy and follow-up up to 24 months after chemotherapy

  4. Impact of age

    Assess the impact of age on the magnitude of cognitive impairment in patients

    Measured: Before chemotherapy (baseline), end of chemotherapy and follow-up up to 24 months after chemotherapy

  5. lived of the entourage

    • Assess the impact and cognitive impairment of patients'experiences of the circle (translational research)

    Measured: Before chemotherapy (baseline), end of chemotherapy and follow-up up to 12 months after chemotherapy
