Finding Predictors of Side Effects to Chemoradiation Treatment in Elderly Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Identification of Predictors of Tolerance to Chemoradiotherapy in Elderly Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
調査の概要
詳細な説明
Purpose: To identify baseline predictors of change in function over the course of treatment with chemoradiotherapy in patients with head and neck cancer.
Participants: Patients 65 or older who have an appointment at the North Carolina Cancer Hospital (NCCH) or other participating sites, have planned chemoradiotherapy for head and neck cancer
Procedures (methods): Consenting subjects will complete a Geriatric Assessment, Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Head and Neck and give a blood sample for CBC and p16INK4a at the start of their chemoradiotherapy, at week four, at the end and 90 days post therapy. They will also complete a health behavior questionnaire at baseline.
