Key Points

• The study aims to explore the relationship between allostatic load and multimorbidity on survival rates in older cancer survivors.
• Assess allostatic load in older adults
• Examine multimorbidity patterns
• Analyze survival outcomes including overall and cancer-specific survival
• Identified high-risk groups among older cancer survivors
• Link between increased allostatic load and reduced survival rates
• Noted significant impact of multimorbidity on cancer survival
