RESUMO

AIM: The aims of this study were to assess the survival benefit of optimal vs suboptimal management in elderly patients presenting with upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) cancer for which surgery was the standard of care, and determine if comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) was a prognostic factor for survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted from January 2014 to December 2018. Included patients were aged 70 or older at the time of diagnosis, and presented with UADT cancer with a theoretical indication for curative-intent surgery according to international guidelines. RESULTS: A total of 188 patients were included, with a median age of 78 years. Treatment included surgery in 67.6% of cases and was considered optimal in 60.6% of patients. The overall 3-year survival was 55.2%, and was significantly better in case of optimal vs suboptimal treatment (74.5% vs 25.8%, p < 0.001). In univariate analysis, factors associated with a significantly improved 3-year survival included surgery (p < 0.001), age < 80 years, performance status < 2 and G8 score > 14. In multivariate analysis, CGA was associated with a better survival. CONCLUSIONS: In patients aged over 70 presenting with UADT cancer for which the standard of care is surgery, an optimal management is associated with better overall survival. Receiving a CGA seems to provide a survival benefit in patients with a G8 score ≤ 14, through an optimization of the care pathway before and after the cancer treatment.
