Summary

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of three geriatric assessment tools-CARG (Cancer and Aging Research Group score), G8 screening tool, and Frailty Scale-in predicting chemotherapy-related toxicity (CRT) in cancer patients aged 65 years and older. A total of at least 100 patients receiving standard chemotherapy (excluding hematologic malignancies and immunotherapy) at Çanakkale University Medical Faculty Oncology Clinic will be assessed prior to treatment initiation. Each participant will undergo baseline evaluations including G8, CARG, and Frailty assessments. The study will analyze the correlation between these tools and the occurrence of CRT using AUC, logistic regression, and correlation analyses. The goal is to identify the most accurate and practical screening tool to guide clinical decision-making and minimize chemotherapy toxicity in older adults.
