Management of Cisplatin-Ineligible Patients With Metastatic Bladder Cancer and The Role of Geriatric Assessments

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this study is to better understand how to best treat participants with advanced bladder cancer who may not be able to tolerate all of the chemotherapy drugs that have been shown to be effective. In this study, investigators are assessing the role of the survey, the Geriatric-8, and its ability to predict outcomes in older participants undergoing cancer treatments. Additionally, investigators are evaluating the differential impact of treatments on quality of life in an older and at risk population.
