Chemotherapy in the oldest old: Choices and outcomes.

Treatment decision-making in older patients with cancer is difficult due to a paucity of data evaluating chemotherapy tolerability in this population. We investigated the feasibility of chemotherapy in the oldest old and performed a singl-centre retrospective analysis of patients aged ≥80 years initiating chemotherapy for one of five common solid malignancies or non-Hodgkin lymphoma between 2010 and 2016. Treatment plan and course were extracted from medical files.
