Evaluating Vulnerable Elders Survey-13 and FIL Geriatric Assessment in Older Adults With Aggressive Lymphomas
We found that VES-13 score was associated with survival, toxicity, health care utilization, and QoL decline, demonstrating similar sensitivity and specificity to the FIL GA. These findings underscore the potential utility of VES-13 as a screening instrument to identify older patients with aNHL at risk for adverse clinical outcomes.
