JUMP — How common sarcopenia and 'chemobrain' are after cancer
Official title: Prevalence of Sarcopenia and Chemobrain in Post-cancer Patients
Run by Hospices Civils de Lyon · NCT05800535 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This project will see how common muscle loss (sarcopenia) and thinking problems ('chemobrain') are in adults who have finished cancer treatment.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18 to 74 who have completed treatment for cancers such as breast, lung, melanoma, testicular, bladder, kidney, ovarian, colon, pancreatic, or hematologic malignancies and who attend the post-cancer assessment day are eligible.
✕Probably not a fit
People under 18 or over 74, those who did not receive chemotherapy, and patients who decline participation are not eligible and would not benefit from this program.

What this trial studies
JUMP is an observational project that brings post-cancer patients to a one-day assessment including standard labs and focused checks for muscle deconditioning and cognitive changes. Participants undergo blood tests (glycaemia, creatinine, liver tests, blood count) and evaluations for sarcopenia and cognitive function. After the assessment day, patients are referred to appropriate local services such as adapted physical activity, sports-for-health programs, or rehabilitation at Henry Gabriel Hospital. The project enrolls adults aged 18–74 with a range of prior cancer types who completed oncology treatment and attended the post-cancer assessment day at Hospices Civils de Lyon.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this work could help identify patients who need physical rehabilitation or cognitive support and speed referrals to services that improve post-cancer quality of life.
How similar studies have gone: Previous observational work has repeatedly found that both sarcopenia and cancer-related cognitive changes are common after treatment, so this project builds on established findings rather than testing an entirely novel concept.
