Despite recent cancer advances, racial disparities in treatment outcomes persist, the mechanisms for which are still not fully understood. Our objective was to examine racial differences in frailty and geriatric assessment (GA) impairments in an unselected cohort older adults with newly diagnosed gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies. We used data from the Cancer Aging and Resilience Evaluation (CARE) registry, a prospective cohort study that enrolled older adults (≥60y) with GI malignancies presenting for initial consultation. We included participants with GA completed prior to chemotherapy initiation and self-reported as either White or Black. Frailty was defined using a frailty index based on the deficit accumulation method. We examined the differences in prevalence and adjusted odds ratio for frailty and GA impairments between Black and White participants. Of 710 eligible patients seen, 553 consented with sufficient data for analyses. Mean age enrollment of 70±7.1y, 58% were male and 23% were Black. Primary cancer diagnoses included colorectal cancer (32%), pancreatic cancer (27%), and hepatobiliary cancer (18%). Black participants were more likely to be frail (50.0% vs. 32.7%, p<0.001) and report limitations in activities of daily living (27.3% vs. 14.1%, p=0.001), instrumental activities of daily living (64.38% vs. 47.3%, p=0.002), and walking one block (62.5% vs. 48.2%, p=0.004). These associations persisted even after adjustment for age, sex, education, cancer type, cancer stage, and comorbidity. Black participants were more frail and reported more limitations in function compared to White participants. These findings may partially explain disparities in cancer outcomes and warrant further examination.
