Physical function in older adults with and without a cancer history: Findings from the National Health and Aging Trends Study.

Our results extend studies in breast and prostate cancer to show worse objective and patient-reported physical function outcomes in older adults with a range of cancer types compared to those without a cancer history. Moreover, these burdens seem to disproportionately affect older adult women, underscoring the need for interventions to address functional limitations and prevent further health consequences of cancer and its treatment.
