ROME—Cancer doctors need to face up to the challenge of the global population time bomb of elderly patients with cancer, according to Richard Sullivan, Director of International Affairs at Kings Health Partners Integrated Cancer Centre, based in Guys Hospital, London. He told the Rome conference on Blood Cancer in the Elderly that many older patients with cancer are fit enough to receive the most effective treatments, so better therapy outcomes can be achieved than is often expected. He explains to ecancer radio what needs to be done to face up to this challenge.
