ABSTRACT: Background
Despite chemotherapy-related toxicities being more likely in older patients, no routine prediction tool has been validated for the UK population. Previous research within the TOASTIE (tolerance of anti-cancer systemic therapy in the elderly) study found a low predictive performance of the Cancer and Aging Research Group (CARG) score for severe chemotherapy-related toxicities. Building on this, the TOASTIE study dataset was used to assess the viability of developing a predictive model with baseline variables and frailty scores for severe chemotherapy-related toxicities in older patients.Methods
All patients from the TOASTIE dataset were included, with the inclusion/exclusion criteria detailed in the TOASTIE protocol. Demographic factors, self-assessment scores, Ro
