About this study

This study is a multicenter, prospective, observational study. The study included patients aged 65 and older with solid tumors requiring systemic anti-tumor therapy. All patients underwent screening using the sG8 scale before the start of treatment, followed by routine treatment based on a plan developed through clinician decision-making. The study did not intervene in any way with the patients' diagnosis and treatment, and relevant clinical data during the treatment process were recorded accurately for follow-up patients. Study data were obtained from the electronic medical record databases and hospital information systems of multiple centers, including Sichuan Cancer Hospital. Patient clinicopathological features, pathological diagnoses, clinical stages, previous treatment histories, as well as anti-tumor treatment regimens after patient enrollment, drug dosages per cycle, treatment start times, incidence and grades of adverse events (AEs), and tumor response were extracted and collected from the medical records. All data were entered, managed, quality-controlled, exported, and analyzed through a real-world data management platform (RWDMP).

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of unplanned treatment delays and treatment interruptions

    The incidence of unplanned treatment delays and treatment interruptions

    Measured: From date receiving anti-tumor therapy after the first screening assessment until date of disease progression or death or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. TRAE

    Number and percentage of patents with treatment-related adverse events assessed by CTCAE v5.0.

    Measured: From date receiving anti-tumor therapy after the first screening assessment until date of disease progression or death or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months

  2. ORR

    the sum percentage of participants with CR and PR assessed by RECIST v1.1 criteria every 8-12 weeks.

    Measured: From date receiving anti-tumor therapy after the first screening assessment until date of disease progression or death or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months

  3. PFS

    Systemic Progression-Free Survival assessed by the investigators using RECIST V1.1.

    Measured: From date receiving anti-tumor therapy after the first screening assessment until date of disease progression or death or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Solid Cancers and Geriatric Assessment, run by Sichuan Cancer Hospital and Research Institute.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of unplanned treatment delays and treatment interruptions (time frame: From date receiving anti-tumor therapy after the first screening assessment until date of disease progression or death or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Apr 2025.
