Management of Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma in Older and Frail Patients: Have Novel Treatment Approaches Improved Their Care?
TL;DR: In older patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma, it is critical to evaluate for frailty through geriatric screening tools and comprehensive assessments, and combining these evaluations with consideration of an individual patient’s goals should be the foundation upon which therapeutic decisions are made.

TL;DR: Half of elderly patients with breast cancer are undertreated, with strongly decreased specific survival as a consequence, and treatments need to be adapted to the patient's health status, but also should offer the best chance of cure.
