Role of Geriatric Intervention in Treatment of Older Patients With Cancer (PREPARE) (PREPARE)

November 17, 2017 updated by: Institut Bergonié

Role of Geriatric Intervention in Treatment of Older Patients With Cancer : a Phase III Randomized Study (PREPARE)

Randomized trials have already demonstrated that geriatric intervention was able to improve survival in the general elderly population but only a few have been performed in cancer patients. At the end, these data are not sufficient to consider geriatric intervention as validated in this setting. Case Management, coordinated by a geriatrician and a trained nurse, could improve prognosis of elderly patients with cancer. This approach, can be integrated in daily oncology practice. This strategy will be compared to usual oncological management in a randomized phase III trial.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients will first be screened using the G8 screening tool. If the resulting score is altered (G8 <= 14), patients will be included in the main study and randomized according to 2 modalities: Arm A / Usual care (treatment according to on-going regimens in oncology) or Arm B /Case management (assessment of the patient by the nurse and the geriatrician with interventions as prescribed by the geriatrician). The intervention will be considered effective if, at one year, compared to usual care there is a significant clinical improvement in overall survival (OS) without a significant deterioration or/and clinical improvement of at least one of the targeted quality of life (QoL) scores, without significant clinical deterioration in at least one of the targeted QoL scores and without significant difference in OS in favor of usual care.

If the resulting score is normal (G8 > 14), patients will be treated according to their physician-in-charge opinion. A minimal set of data will be collected (age, sex, tumor type, disease stage, performance status (PS), creatinine clearance, albumin and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) levels mainly) to allow for the characterization of the population in order to compare our results to those of other published series.

  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
NO_INTERVENTION: Arm A
Arm A "Standard oncological care": patients will be treated according to daily oncological practices as defined for each type of cancer, in the "Management protocol of Oncology" written and validated by a group of expert oncologists. The quality of life will be assessed every 3 months during the first year and at 18 months. The study's follow-up will last until 3 years after the enrollment of the last patient and data on vital status of the patient, weight, place of life and the status of the disease will be collected every 6 months.
EXPERIMENTAL: Arm B

Arm B "Geriatrician Intervention": patients will be treated according to the same "Management protocol of Oncology" than patients in the arm "Standard oncological care".

  • Before the beginning of the medical treatment, a comprehensive geriatric assessment will be performed by the geriatrician and the nurse that will define a plan of geriatric management care, according to the "Management protocol of Geriatrics".
  • The nurse, under the supervision of a geriatrician, will monitor implemented geriatric interventions. Phone follow-up will be performed every month for 6 months and at 9 months or during any change of situation according to a pre-established phone call plan. A full geriatric assessment by the geriatrician and the nurse will be performed at 6 and 12 months.
Arm B : The duration of the geriatric intervention will be 12 months. The quality of life will be assessed every 3 months during the first year and at 18 months. The study's follow-up will last until 3 years after the enrollment of the last patient and data on vital status of the patient, weight, place of life and the status of the disease will be collected every 6 months.
