G-8—Geriatric 8 screening tool, HGST—hand-grip strength test, ♂—male, ♀—female, ECOG Performance Status—Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group’s definition of performance status. 1 Hand-grip strength test measured using a Smedley Dynamometer. 2 Fit (normal G-8 and normal HGST), Vulnerable (abnormal G-8 or abnormal HGST), and Frail (abnormal G-8 and abnormal HGST). 3 Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive CGA or not upon inclusion in the previous randomized study.
