A Supportive Care Intervention for Older Caregivers of Older Adults With Advanced Cancer

Cancer Clinical Trial

Official title:
Development and Feasibility of a Supportive Care Intervention for Older Caregivers of Older Adults With Advanced Cancer

Clinical Trial Summary

This project assesses the feasibility of utilizing the geriatric assessment as a tool to identify distressed older caregivers of older adults with cancer. The investigator will engage key stakeholders including older caregivers of older adults with cancer, experts in geriatric oncology and primary care physicians to develop and pilot a supportive care intervention to improve outcomes in older caregivers.

Clinical Trial Description

Older caregivers of older adults with cancer (described here-on as "older caregivers") are at high risk for increased burden and negative physical and psychological outcomes. Despite this, identification of older caregivers at risk for burden remains a challenge and evaluation of supportive care interventions and guidelines for this population remains limited. Health outcomes of older adults with cancer and their caregivers are inter-related and it is important to evaluate and support the health of both. The geriatric assessment (GA) is a valuable tool to evaluate health and age-related conditions (e.g., physical and cognitive function) of older adults with cancer and guide supportive care. Identifying older adults with age-related conditions can help to identify caregivers who are at increased risk for the negative impacts of caregiving. This project seeks to gather preliminary data on the health of older caregivers and to develop and pilot high priority supportive care interventions for this population. The investigator will examine the feasibility of utilizing the GA as a tool to identify distressed older caregivers. The investigator will engage key stakeholders including, older caregivers and older adults with cancer, experts in geriatric oncology and primary care physicians to develop and pilot a supportive care intervention to improve outcomes in older caregivers. ;
