Background Co-existing frailty in older patients with hepatopancreaticobiliary (HPB)
malignancies is common. This study assessed the relationship between the Rockwood …

Background: Frailty has been associated with increased mortality among hepatobiliary
pancreatic (HBP) cancer patients. Nevertheless, estimates of frailty prevalence in HBP …

Background The majority of patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) malignancies
are older than 65 years. Due to the heterogeneity of this older population, decisions …

Background Pancreatic cancer primarily affects older adults and is associated with a high
morbidity and mortality. Identifying frail patients with advanced pancreatic cancer (APC) …

Pancreatic cancer is a prevalent disease among older adults. Well-selected patients, based
on a geriatric assessment for risk stratification, could be good candidates for chemotherapy …

12046 Background: Older adults with cancer are at increased risk of treatment-related
toxicity and mortality. A comprehensive geriatric assessment (GA) may uncover aging …

Background Older adults with cancer are at increased risk of treatment‐related toxicities and
excess mortality. We evaluated whether a patient‐reported geriatric assessment (GA) based …

PURPOSE: Frailty predicts poor outcomes in older adults with cancer, but how it differs
between different cancer types is unknown. We examined differences in pretreatment frailty …

Background Frailty is an indicator of physiological reserve in older people. In non-cancer
settings, frailty indices are reliable predictors of adverse health outcomes. The aims of this …

375 Background: Frailty reflects decreased physiologic reserve and subsequent increased
vulnerability to stress. Frailty has been associated with poor health outcomes in patients with …
