For the purpose of this draft guidance, older adults are those age 65 years and older. The draft guidance emphasizes the particular importance of including adults over age 75 years in cancer clinical trials. Specifically, this draft guidance includes recommendations for including an adequate representation of older adults in cancer clinical trials to better enable evaluation of the benefit-risk profile of cancer drugs in this population.
