Can a simple health quiz predict chemo risks in seniors with myeloma?

This study looked at 56 older adults (65+) with multiple myeloma to see if a comprehensive geriatric assessment—a series of questions and tests about physical and mental health—along with blood tests could predict who would have serious side effects from chemotherapy. The goal is to help doctors tailor treatments to each patient's fitness level. The study did not test a new treatment but gathered information to improve future care.
