NCT04788758 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

This phase II trial investigates how easy it is to incorporate a nursing led geriatric assessment screening tool into a busy oncology practice, in order to identify at-risk older adults being evaluated for cancer treatment. This screening tool may help identify at-risk patients who can be referred for more in depth assessment, allowing for the creation of an individualized treatment plan that puts the patient's safety and personal goals as a priority.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04788758

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04788758 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 76 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Thomas Jefferson University, which has 324 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 2 conditions, with Malignant Solid Neoplasm appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 4 interventions — of which Questionnaire Administration is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04788758 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Pennsylvania. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
