This observation study is designed investigate changes in frailty and cognitive function in participants with advanced ovarian and endometrial cancer before and after undergoing NACT. Changes in frailty and cognitive function will be measured using the eFI which is an automated EMR-based tool based that uses a combination of clinical encounters, diagnosis codes, laboratory workups, and Medicare annual wellness visit data as markers of frailty status. Participants with either ovarian/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube carcinoma or endometrial carcinoma will be approached for interest in participating in this study. Prior to the first prechemotherapy appointment, eFI will be collected as well as PROs (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Cognitive Function (FACT-Cog), Patient Health Questionnaire-2 and MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment)) and historical data. After 3-4 rounds of NACT, eFI, FACT-Cog and MoCA will be collected again. Data on intra-operative and post-operative complications will be collected after surgery.
