Quality of life evaluation

Assess the quality of life ('SF-36' questionnaire) of patients 3 and 6 months after oncologic treatment. Since a diagnosis of frailness will have been established before the oncologic treatment, a correlation between the decline and the 'frail' categorization according to the Fried criteria can be established or denied.

OTHER

Functional decline assessment

Assess functional decline ('Katz ADL' Score and 'Lawton IADL' Score) 3 and 6 months after oncologic treatment. Since a diagnosis of frailness will have been established before the oncologic treatment, a correlation between the decline and the 'frail' categorization according to the Fried criteria can be established or denied.

OTHER

Physical decline assessment

Assess physical decline (walking speed and prehension force) 3 and 6 months after oncologic treatment. Since a diagnosis of frailness will have been established before the oncologic treatment, a correlation between the decline and the 'frail' categorization according to the Fried criteria can be established or denied.

OTHER

Cognitive decline assessment

Assess cognitive decline 3 and 6 months ('MMSE 30' questionnaire) after oncologic treatment. Since a diagnosis of frailness will have been established before the oncologic treatment, a correlation between the decline and the 'frail' categorization according to the Fried criteria can be established or denied.
