- W2885251568 abstract "Introduction: Lung cancer is predominantly a disease that affects the elderly; about 30–40% of lung cancers are diagnosed in patients aged 70 or more. The increasing number of elderly patients over the next decades is generating a new social and health problem; despite that, these patients are underrepresented in clinical trials and undertreated in clinical practice.Areas covered: The main difficulty in treating elderly patients is to maximize the therapy benefits while minimizing the treatment risk. Elderly patients show a vulnerable clinical profile due to the higher prevalence of comorbid disease, higher polypharmacy interactions and aged organ dysfunction that increase the risk of mortality and toxicity with cancer treatments compared to younger patients.Expert commentary: The choice to treat or not to treat elderly patients cannot be taken only on the basis of the chronological age. Thus, the clinical approach should be to select patients who are effectively suitable for treatment having a better individual functional reserve and a better life expectancy. Elderly patients are a heterogeneous population and those who are fit to receive cancer treatment can be treated similarly to younger patients." @default.
