Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this research is to evaluate the quality of life of patients over 75 years of age undergoing palliative chemotherapy for digestive cancer. It is a non-interventional study that evaluates the quality of life before and after a cycle of chemotherapy with a composite criterion including: a standardized questionnaire "Cancer specific quality of Life questionnaire" (QLQC30), an assessment of autonomy by "Activity of daily living" questionnaire (ADL), and the number of days of hospitalization.


Clinical Trial Description

The number of patients undergoing chemotherapy continues to increase as well as the age of cancer patients, it is estimated that in 2050 one cancer out of two will be discovered in a person over 75 years of age. Digestive cancers account for the majority of these patients, the goals of these palliative chemotherapies are to improve survival and maintain or improve quality of life. Since the 2009 cancer plan, a specific geriatric onco-geriatrics organization has been set up with the creation of geriatric onco-coordination units. One of the objectives of this plan is to achieve a 5% inclusion rate of patients over 75 years of age in clinical trials. However, there are relatively few studies in patients over 75 years of age concerning quality of life, as they are often excluded from trials and survival is preferred as the primary outcome. This observational study evaluates the quality of life of patients at the time of the first chemotherapy treatment and then at the end of the first cycle of chemotherapy at 3 months by a standardized questionnaire, an evaluation of autonomy and the number of days of hospitalization. ;
