2). Scoring 2 or 3 at fTRST was highly related (7/11

patients) to functional decay. The regression model showed a

significant relationship between severe functional decline and

7 day-length of stay (OR 10.07), institutionalization (OR 55)

and age

85 year (OR 5.97). During interview, 48% of patients

described a subjective functional loss mostly attributed to

fatigue, causing lack of mobility, and anorexia.

Flemish-TRST

2 significantly predicted the need for

postoperative ICU admission (p=0.009), prolonged length of

stay (p=0.022) and need for long-term institutionalization

(p=0.063).

Conclusion:

Assessing frailty is mandatory in order to

identify the most appropriate treatment and to optimize

the postoperative management. Using the fTRST routinely

is feasible, also in this setting. Our pilot study, despite size

limitation, showed that fTRST score

2 is effectively predicting

higher risk of 30-day mortality. A significant relationship

with postoperative complications and functional loss was

not proven, but this is probably related to the small sample

analyzed.

Introduction:

In Picardy, oncologists and geriatricians

work in strong partnership with the help of the coordination

oncogeriatric Unit (UCOG). Since 2008, 2650 old patients with

cancer have been assessed and followedup at the oncogeriatric

consultation constituting the basis of the oncogeriatric

Picardy cohort COPAGE. The currently use of multi thematic

software for health geriatric networks (LOGIRESO) allows us

to record in real time during the consultation, all the items of

the standardized multidimensional comprehensive geriatric

assessment (CGA). This application leads to the Balducci

Score. Moreover G8, the screening tool usually used in France,

has been also collected in this application.

Objectives:

To analyze a cohort of elderly patients with

cancer and to check the correlation between G8 and the

Balducci score.

Methods:

This is a multicentric cohort study. A descriptive

analysis of the population was conducted at the baseline, and

the correlation between G8 and the score of Balducci has been

analysed with the test of person.

Results:

This study focuses on 490 of 2650 patients for

whom data are available on LOGIRESO. This cohort is formed

of 47.7% men and 53.3% women, with a mean age of 81.9±5.6

years. 63.2% of patients live alone and 58.8% have a caregiver.

46.5% of patients present dependence for activities of daily

living, 61% for the instrumental activities of daily living. The

Body mass index averages 26.14±4.96 kg/m2. 92% of patients

have a get up and go test

4. Half of patients have a test of

the 5 words of Dubois

10, whereas the test of the clock is

rated

6 in 65%. 45,5% of patients have a mini mental status

under 24. The mini geriatric depression scale was

1 in 23%.

The most frequent cancers are colorectal 20.28%, breast 16%,

followed by gastro-intestinal (non colorectal) cancer 10% and

prostate cancer 8.3%. The most of the patients (90%) have

G8

14. In Balducci score, patients are in proportion of 17%

with a harmonious aging (fit), vulnerable 31.6%, frail 41.3%

and 10% taking on palliative care. As expected, a significant

correlation was found between the score of Balducci and the

G8 (p<0.0001).

Conclusion:

The use of standardized tools in specific

medical software allowed improving the centralization of

data and a better knowledge of elderly patients with cancer

in our area. This study tends to confirm G8 is a good test to

screen frailty.

Introduction:

Guidelines recommend comprehensive

geriatric assessment (CGA) in relationship to the elder patient

to improve the detection of frailty and guide the oncologist

on treatment decision-making. However, CGA is a time-

consuming process. A two-step approach by using a screening

tool has been proposed in order to distinguish which patients

could benefit from the CGA.

Objectives:

Firstly, we set out to determine how to decide

which patients will benefit from CGA and should be selected.

Secondly, we want to find a relation between the outcome for

cancer treatment (e.g.toxicity, mortality) with the outcome of

the screening tools and the decision of the oncologist.

Methods:

Patients 70 years and older, who are planning to

start chemotherapy, as seen by an oncologist, are screened
