Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment and predicted 3-year survival in treatment planning for frail patients with early breast cancer

摘要

Background: Endocrine therapy alone has been a popular treatment for oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancer in elderly patients, although it may be inadequate in those surviving more than 2-3 years. The aim of this study was to estimate 3-year survival in frail patients with early breast cancer, to inform treatment decisions.
