Predicting Toxicity in Elderly Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
- Conditions
- Head and Neck Cancer
- Registration Number
- NCT06344208
- Lead Sponsor
- European Institute of Oncology
- Brief Summary
Predicting toxicity in elderly patients with head and neck cancer:
validating a disease-oriented toxicity predictive tool and integrating it with avail-able screening tools for better outcomes.
- Detailed Description
We aim to analyze clinical and biochemical variables to prospectively create and validate an independ-ent predictive score to identify the probability of G3-5 toxicity in HNC elderly patients candidated to a curative treatment with radiation treatment +/- systemic treatment.
