Overview
Brief Summary
This trial evaluates the risk of chemotherapy toxicity in older patients with blood cancer or non-small cell lung cancer. The purpose of this study is to describe a patient's wellness before and after chemotherapy treatment. This may help researchers better understand patient's ability to tolerate treatment and in the future devise the best treatment for a patient based on their "fitness."
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To validate the accuracy and predictive ability of the Cancer and Aging Research Group (CARG) Chemo-Toxicity calculator in untreated patients with hematologic malignancy and non-small cell lung cancer, as well as relapsed patients with a hematologic malignancy intended to begin chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. Ia. Determine if the CARG Chemo-Toxicity calculator predicts grade 3-5 toxicity in older adult patients with hematologic malignancy undergoing treatment. Ib. Determine if CARG Geriatric Assessment (GA) metrics predict grade 3-5 toxicity in older adults with hematologic malignancy undergoing treatment. Ic. Identify the association between frailty metrics and relative dose intensity in older adults with hematologic malignancy. Id. To evaluate feasibility of CARG GA and functional assessment implementation in older adults with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the relationship of frailty metrics (CARG chemo-toxicity calculator and geriatric assessment metrics) with health related quality of life (HRQL) over time. II. To identify the relationship of frailty metrics (chemo-toxicity calculator and GA metrics) with physical function as measured by the short physical performance battery (SPPB). III. To determine the association of molecular markers of aging (OSU\_Senescence, Hovarth epigenetic clock/deoxyribonucleic acid \[DNA\]ge, inflammatory cytokines, changes in peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets) with risk of chemotherapy toxicity using the Chemo-Toxicity calculator and other prognostic factors (e.g. age, disease, stage, body composition by imaging). IV. In the NSCLC cohort we will determine the association between treatment efficacy and toxicity with changes in the stool microbiome. OUTLINE: Patients complete questionnaires over 30-40 minutes about daily activity and feelings, complete thinking and walking tests over 10 minutes, and undergo collection of blood samples before the first dose of chemotherapy and 90, 180, and 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy. Patients with non-small lung cancer also undergo collection of stool sample. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months.

Arms & Interventions
Observational (questionnaire, assessment, biospecimen)
Patients complete questionnaires over 30-40 minutes about daily activity and feelings, complete thinking and walking tests over 10 minutes, and undergo collection of blood samples before the first dose of chemotherapy and 90, 180, and 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy. Patients with non-small lung cancer also undergo collection of stool sample.
Intervention: Quality-of-Life Assessment
Observational (questionnaire, assessment, biospecimen)
Patients complete questionnaires over 30-40 minutes about daily activity and feelings, complete thinking and walking tests over 10 minutes, and undergo collection of blood samples before the first dose of chemotherapy and 90, 180, and 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy. Patients with non-small lung cancer also undergo collection of stool sample.
Intervention: Biospecimen Collection
Observational (questionnaire, assessment, biospecimen)
Patients complete questionnaires over 30-40 minutes about daily activity and feelings, complete thinking and walking tests over 10 minutes, and undergo collection of blood samples before the first dose of chemotherapy and 90, 180, and 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy. Patients with non-small lung cancer also undergo collection of stool sample.
Intervention: Cognitive Assessment
Observational (questionnaire, assessment, biospecimen)
Patients complete questionnaires over 30-40 minutes about daily activity and feelings, complete thinking and walking tests over 10 minutes, and undergo collection of blood samples before the first dose of chemotherapy and 90, 180, and 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy. Patients with non-small lung cancer also undergo collection of stool sample.
Intervention: Physical Performance Testing
Observational (questionnaire, assessment, biospecimen)
Patients complete questionnaires over 30-40 minutes about daily activity and feelings, complete thinking and walking tests over 10 minutes, and undergo collection of blood samples before the first dose of chemotherapy and 90, 180, and 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy. Patients with non-small lung cancer also undergo collection of stool sample.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Prognostic ability of the CARG chemotoxicity calculator in patients newly diagnosed with hematologic malignancy
Time Frame: 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy
Predictive ability of Chemo-Toxicity calculator to predict grade 3-5 toxicity
Time Frame: 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy
Will fit a Cox regression model for time to toxicity (grades 3-5) containing the baseline chemo-toxicity risk score as the only predictor. The overall ability of the model to distinguish grade 3-5 from grade 1-2 toxicity will be evaluated using Harrell's C-statistic, which can be viewed as a generalization of the area under the curve measurement for receiver operator characteristics (ROC's) curves based on binary outcome data. A 95% confidence interval will be constructed for the C-statistic and if the lower bound is greater than 0.5 (expected value if the risk score is not predictive of toxicity) we will conclude that risk score is significantly able to distinguish between toxicity grades.

Predictive ability of the Cancer and Aging Research Group (CARG) Chemo-Toxicity calculator
Time Frame: 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy
Association between frailty metrics and relative dose intensity (RDI)
Time Frame: 365 days after first dose of chemotherapy
Will explore the relationship of RDI and MAX2 (reduced and prescribed) with clinical and biologic factors of frailty. RDI (\>= 85% versus \[vs.\] \< 85%) will be treated as a continuous and dichotomous variable. The distribution of RDI and MAX2 will be examined graphically and transformed to normality as appropriate. Linear regression for continuous RDI and logistic regression for dichotomized RDI will be used to understand the relationship with RDI and independent variables (e.g. GA scores, age, short physical performance battery \[SPPB\] etc.) Stepwise regression will be used to identify significant clinical and biologic factors (e.g. OSU\_Senescence) that are independently associated with continuous or dichotomized RDI.
