Outcome prioritization and preferences among older adults with cancer starting chemotherapy in a randomized clinical trial.

Introduction: Older adults with cancer facing competing treatments must prioritize between various outcomes. This study assessed health outcome prioritization among older adults with cancer starting chemotherapy.

Methods: Secondary analysis of a randomized trial addressing vulnerabilities in older adults with cancer.

Geriatric Assessment-Driven Intervention (GAIN) on Chemotherapy-Related Toxic Effects in Older Adults With Cancer: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Although geriatric assessment-driven intervention improves patient-centered outcomes, its influence on chemotherapy-related toxic effects remains unknown.

Objective: To assess whether specific geriatric assessment-driven intervention (GAIN) can reduce chemotherapy-related toxic effects in older adults with cancer.

Design, Setting, And Participants: A randomized clinical trial enrolled 613 participants from a National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center between 2015 and 2019.

Geriatric Oncology Workshop (GrOW): Development and Evaluation of a Nationwide Nursing Curriculum.

Introduction: Oncology nurses are key in caring for older adults with cancer, but few have received specialized training in gerontology. To address this, a geriatric oncology curriculum was developed for oncology nurses.

Materials & Methods: The Geriatric Oncology Workshop (GrOW) was developed and delivered to oncology nurses (n = 387) from 2016 to 2019.
