What was measured

Reproducibility of VES-13 was assessed based on a subgroup of patients included in three pre-identified centers who completed the questionnaire on two occasions. VES-13 is a self-administered questionnaire that was completed during the first visit after enrollment. For 3 pre-identified centers, patients filled in the questionnaire at the following geriatric visit. VES-13 consisted of 4 groups of questions: age, self-perceived health, difficulties to perform 6 specific activities, and difficulties to perform daily living tasks due to health concerns. The score ranged from 0 to 10 and a score \>=3 was considered to show impairment.

Analysis population: Eligible Patients Assessable for the Primary Outcome Measure AND with two assessments of the VES-13 available

Groups in this outcome

Eligible Patients Assessable for the Primary Outcome Measure

Patients older than 70 years and included either before any first-line treatment, or between any two steps of a pre-defined first-line treatment sequence (chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted treatment, surgery or radiotherapy) for various types of histologically-confirmed cancer (colon, lung, upper aero digestive tract (UAT)/head and neck, breast, prostate, and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL)), and for whom G8 as well as at least one instrument of the multidimensional assessment were available.

Group identifiers and denominators belong to this outcome only. They may differ in another outcome or in safety reporting.
