Inside the course
MSKCC Geriatric Oncology foundations
A history and outlook of the field, how aging biology research can change clinical care, practical vulnerability assessment and safe prescribing set the frame, followed by a case study.
Disease-specific strategies
Advanced lung cancer, breast cancer, colorectal carcinoma with novel therapies, and bladder and prostate cancer are each reviewed through the lens of an older patient.
Research and beyond the hospital
Why older adults remain under-represented in trials, links between cancer and dementia, GLP-1 agonists and cancer outcomes, and difficult conversations in long-term care complete the programme.
