Summary
This study is testing an online questionnaire called CHAMP that older adults with cancer can fill out before their doctor's visit. The tool asks about daily function, memory, mood, and support to help doctors tailor cancer treatment. Researchers want to see if the tool is easy to use and if it changes treatment plans for the better.

self-reported online geriatric assessment tool (CHAMP)
What this could lead to
If successful, this tool could make geriatric assessments more accessible, helping older cancer patients and their doctors choose treatments that match their health and needs.
What could go wrong
This is a validation study, not a treatment trial. The tool may not change treatment plans or improve outcomes for all patients, and results may not apply to those who don't speak English or have limited internet access.
