Evaluation of Toxicity

Evaluation of Toxicity

Quality of life: Quality of life (QoL) will be assessed using the national version of EORTC QLQ-C30 (version 3) and QLQ-ELD15, a QLQ C30 supplement module for the assessment of quality of life in the elderly patient with cancer

Ancillary study criterai (Only applicable for France): The prognostic value of HalioDx GG testing on iDFS and D-DFS/D-RFS will be assessed in the first 500 patients in the screened population (cohort group and randomized group [in both arms]) with a follow-up of 36 months.
