Brief description INTEGERATE looks at a coordinated program called integrated geriatric care to better support older people who are having chemotherapy for cancer which has spread (metastatic cancer). Doctors often treat metastatic cancer with chemotherapy. But older people are more vulnerable to problems from chemotherapy and cancer due to other health problems, trouble with doing things and their social circumstances. The researchers want to learn whether integrated geriatric care helps older people having chemotherapy for metastatic cancer.
