First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a self-administered geriatric assessment can help predict serious side effects in people aged 60 and older with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma who are starting chemotherapy. The goal is to better understand which patients are at higher risk for hospitalization or dose reductions. The study also includes a small pilot test of a low-dose pre-treatment therapy to see if it can reduce early complications.
