The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $349,561 Project Grant to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to conduct the "Promoting Gynecologic Cancer Patients with Frailty to Achieve Functional Recovery Cohort Study (PROOF Cohort Study)." This innovative study aims to 1) objectively assess physical frailty in patients with advanced ovarian or uterine cancer and quantify its association with perioperative and oncologic outcomes, and 2) characterize and identify predictors of functional recovery and quality of life in these patients. As part of the project, UCSF has issued a $87,155 sub-award to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to support patient recruitment, data collection, and analysis activities at their site. The project period runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2026.
