2 OBJECTIVES Understand the shared role of the geriatrician/primary care provider with the cancer specialist in providing cancer care. Understand the shared role of the geriatrician/primary care provider with the cancer specialist in providing cancer care. Identify gaps in knowledge about shared-care Identify gaps in knowledge about shared-care Propose future studies to fill the gaps in knowledge in shared-care.

3 Cancer Survivorship and Aging Survivorship is a relatively new way of thinking about cancer. Survivorship is a relatively new way of thinking about cancer. Improved survival rates Cancer is a chronic disease Improved survival rates Cancer is a chronic disease “Survivor” includes “Survivor” includes Those who have lived for an extended period of time after treatment Those who have lived for an extended period of time after treatment Newly diagnosed individuals Newly diagnosed individuals Those who are in treatment, have completed treatment or are in remission Those who are in treatment, have completed treatment or are in remission NCI defines survivor as anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer

5 CANCER SURVIVORSHIP AND AGING Studies of Long-Term Diagnosed Older Patients Cancer survivors have more comorbidities and poorer functioning (independent of comorbidities) than non-cancer survivors Cancer survivors have more comorbidities and poorer functioning (independent of comorbidities) than non-cancer survivors The effects of cancer due to age is more apparent The effects of cancer due to age is more apparent This may be the result of the late effects of cancer and its treatment, underlying risk factors or interaction of cancer and aging.

6 From Cancer Patient to Cancer Survivor: Lost in Transition. IOM 2005 Report Recommendations: www.iom.edu www.iom.edu 1. …..should work to raise awareness of the needs of cancer survivors, establish cancer survivorship as a distinct phase of cancer care, and act to ensure appropriate survivorship care.

7 From Cancer Patient to Cancer Survivor: Lost in Transition. IOM 2005 Cancer Survivor Care Planning Record of Care Record of Care Upon discharge from cancer treatment, including treatment of recurrences, every patient should be given a record of all care received and important disease characteristics Standards of Care Standards of Care Upon discharge from cancer treatment, every patient and their primary care provider should receive a written follow-up care plan incorporating available evidence-based standards of care.

9 Associations among SCPs, experiences of survivorship care, and functioning in older breast cancer survivors: CALGB/Alliance 369901. Faul et al. J Cancer Surviv (2014)8:627-637 Only 35% of 328 women, >65, over 78 cooperative –group sites, with invasive non-metastatic breast cancer received SCPs. Only 35% of 328 women, >65, over 78 cooperative –group sites, with invasive non-metastatic breast cancer received SCPs. For each one year increase in age there was a 5% lower odds of receiving an SCP. For each one year increase in age there was a 5% lower odds of receiving an SCP. Besides age no other factors predicted SCPs. Besides age no other factors predicted SCPs. SCP receipt was associated with greater knowledge and understanding of requisite follow up SCP receipt was associated with greater knowledge and understanding of requisite follow up However it did not impact functioning one year post treatment. However it did not impact functioning one year post treatment. To impact functioning and other needs of older survivors, SCP should be tailored to geriatric specific issues: exercise, nutrition, polypharmacy, social support, comorbidities.

15 MODELS OF CANCER SURVIVORSHIP CARE Models of Cancer Survivorship Care: Overview and Summary of Current Evidence Michael T. Halpern, MD, PhD, et al. Models of Cancer Survivorship Care: Overview and Summary of Current Evidence Michael T. Halpern, MD, PhD, et al. 2014 AHRQ Publication No. 14-EHC011-EF 2014 AHRQ Publication No. 14-EHC011-EF 2015 JANUARY 2015 jop.ascopubs.org 2015 JANUARY 2015 jop.ascopubs.org Conclusion: There is substantial variation in survivorship care models. The optimal nature, timing, intensity, format, and outcomes of survivorship care models are uncertain and require further research. Specific research questions need to be addressed by the survivorship community to better understand the advantages and limitations of survivorship models.

16 BARRIERS TO/CONCERNS ABOUT LONG-TERM CARE FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Inadequate training of health care providers Malpractice defense practice test ordering Preventive care concerns Lack of guidelines to address this population Inadequate knowledge of long-term effects, e.g: Surveillance for recurrences Potential side effects of treatments Unclear directions about providers’ responsibilities Financial incentives/disincentives Clinical information systems Lack or organizational support Lack of patient awareness Lack of patient interest/adherence with survivorship care programs Lack of provider knowledge regarding best processes for delivering coordinated care.

17 GAPS IN KNOWLEDGE Unclear added value/improved outcomes of developing “models of care” for older cancer survivors to add onto complex health care delivery systems Unclear added value/improved outcomes of developing “models of care” for older cancer survivors to add onto complex health care delivery systems Studies need to describe the model(s) being examined, providing detail information to assist comparing results of one study with those of other studies and assessing the generalizability of any one model Studies need to describe the model(s) being examined, providing detail information to assist comparing results of one study with those of other studies and assessing the generalizability of any one model Studies of survivorship care need to provide data on long- term or late effects of treatment received by older adults cancer patients Studies of survivorship care need to provide data on long- term or late effects of treatment received by older adults cancer patients There is a gap in understanding survivors’ needs especially in the aged and in the racial/ethnic minority populations There is a gap in understanding survivors’ needs especially in the aged and in the racial/ethnic minority populations

21 Providing Care to the Older Cancer Survivor Rao and Demark-Wahnefried. Critical Reviews in Hematology/Oncology 60 (2006) 131-143 “The older cancer patient/survivor may present us with an exceptional opportunity to target primary, secondary and tertiary prevention strategies, capable of effecting beneficial outcomes for a broad spectrum of diseases and conditions that not only include cancer, but cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, functional decline, cognitive decline, psychological wellbeing and overall quality of life”..
