significant positive correlation between Rockwood FI and the

gold standard (CGA) (n= 147; R=+0.74, p<0.0001).

CGA unmasked several clinical problems in 108 out of 147

examined oncogeriatric patients, such as nutritional deficit

(39%) and mood disorders(46%), followed by a significant

percentage of post surgical delirium (8%). To date, the overall

mortality was of11% (17/147 patients). The 30-day mortality

after surgery was of 4% (2/50 pts).

Conclusion:

The study results indicate a significant

correlation between CGA and Rockwood IF and address a

different predictive accuracy of IF in stratifying the pre frail

patients’ category. The larger enrolment and follow up of

the study will allow to identifying the best predicting tool in

oncogeriatrics, improving as well the clinical assessment and

management of the pre frail oncogeriatric patients.

Introduction:

Comprehensive geriatric assessment

(CGA) helps identifying pts who could benefit more from

oncological treatment. Items of domains explored in the CGA

are heterogeneous, depending on type of assessment, which

make it difficult to integrate results in the decision-making

process.

Our group recently developed a CGA-based Onco-

MPI, a numeric score which predicts accurately the probability

of 1 year mortality in older cancer pts [1].

Objectives:

The aim of this study is to describe the role of

Onco-MPI in pts selection for oncological treatment.

Methods:

Pts aged 70 years or older with a diagnosis

of colorectal cancer (CRC) were assessed with a full CGA.

Data of the single CGA items were used to calculate Onco-

MPI scores, which were registered but not made available to

treating oncologists. Vital status was recorded as of December

31

st

2015. Overall survival was estimated with Kaplan-Meier

method.

Results:

Five hundred and nine pts aged

70 were

evaluated, median age 77 years (range 70 - 93), 304 (59.7%)

male, 202 (39.7%) with advanced stage disease. Globally, 120

pts (25.3%) were low-risk, 179 pts (37.7%) intermediate-risk

and 176 (37%) high-risk, according to Onco-MPI. Survival

analysis was conducted for 475 pts (34 excluded because of

missing data). Pts’ characteristics are described in Table 1.

Onco-MPI confirmed to be a highly accurate predictive tool

for one-year mortality in older CRC pts (log-rank p<0,001). For

pts with stage IV CRC (N=202, 39.7%), there was a significant

impact of treatment in pts with intermediate risk onco-MPI

(N=56 pts, p 0,01), with pts undergoing oncological treatment

showing better survival. In pts with high-risk Onco-MPI

(N=137) no significant impact of oncological treatment on

survival was seen.

Conclusion:

Older pts with advanced CRC and

intermediate-risk Onco-MPI may benefit from oncological

treatment, whereas pts with high risk Onco-MPI did not show

a benefit from chemotherapy. Onco-MPI may serve as a useful

tool to integrate decision-making for older pts with advanced

colorectal cancer.

Introduction:

Maintenance of functional status (FS) is

a key issue for older persons, certainly for those diagnosed

with cancer. Repeated assessment of FS over time gives

treating physicians the opportunity to identify functional
