Summary - Life five years post-cancer diagnosis

The French National Cancer Institute sought to repeat the survey on life two years post-cancer diagnosis (VICAN2) conducted in 2012. For most cancer sites, a period of two years post-diagnosis, while informative, is not enough to study long-term
treatment side effects. This was the reasoning behind this new study on living conditions five years on (VICAN5).

The VICAN5 survey examines the various facets of life five years post-cancer diagnosis: health, after-effects and follow-up, problems encountered in day-to-day life, and also the impact of the disease and treatments on financial resources and employment. This is one of the areas in which inequalities may be particularly significant.
