In China, older cancer survivors may show heterogeneity in financial toxicity (FT). We aimed to identify FT profiles among older Chinese cancer survivors and examine the association between FT profiles and individual characteristics. We used a latent profile analysis to categorize participants and a multinomial logistic regression to examine the associations. We identified three distinct FT profiles: high, moderate, and low. Participants aged 65-69 years, with a monthly household income ≥ 5,000 CNY and a high school education or above were more likely to be classified into the moderate than high FT profile, a monthly household income ≥ 5,000 CNY increased the likelihood of being in the low FT profile and living alone negatively affected the odds of being in the low FT profile. The findings identified heterogeneity in FT among this population, may help identify high-risk groups, and may enable early intervention.
在中国，老年癌症幸存者在经济毒性（FT）方面可能存在异质性。我们旨在识别中国老年癌症幸存者中的FT特征，并研究FT特征与个体特征之间的关联。我们使用潜在类别分析对参与者进行分类，并使用多项逻辑回归来研究关联。我们确定了三种不同的FT特征：高、中、低。年龄在65 - 69岁、家庭月收入≥5000元且具有高中及以上学历的参与者更有可能被归类为中等而非高FT特征，家庭月收入≥5000元增加了处于低FT特征的可能性，而独居对处于低FT特征的几率有负面影响。这些发现揭示了该人群中FT的异质性，可能有助于识别高危群体，并可能实现早期干预。
