Study Summary

This pilot research trial studies telomere length in predicting toxicity in older patients with stage III-IV colorectal cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and predict how well patients will respond to treatment.

Primary Outcome

TL will be compared between participants experiencing at least 1 adverse event and those who experience none using the Mann-Whitney test. A type I error of 5% will be used to determine statistical significance.

Interventions

  • OTHER laboratory biomarker analysis
  • OTHER cytology specimen collection procedure
  • OTHER questionnaire administration
