Living Better with Cancer Sponsorship
Sponsor the “Mieux Vivre le Cancer” Research Team
Month after month, your sponsorship improves patients’ quality of life, both during and after their treatments.
“Mieux Vivre le Cancer” is a program that provides guidance and support to complement palliative care. It accompanies patients throughout their journey to help them better cope with the disease and treatments and improve their quality of life on a daily basis.
It is for these patients that the expertise of Dr. Florian Scotté and Dr. Ines Vaz-Luis is absolutely essential; it is for them that your sponsorship makes a direct difference.
Life After Cancer: Serious Consequences
- 63.5% of patients suffer from long-term effects caused by cancer or its treatments*
- Among those who were employed at the time of their diagnosis, 20% are no longer working 5 years later*
- 1 in 5 women struggles to return to work one year after completing treatment for breast cancer**

Through your sponsorship, become a driving force for innovation and support patients throughout their care journey to help them cope better with the disease
Innovating to improve the cancer experience: three flagship research programs:
● Develop a telemedicine platform to improve the quality of individualized patient
care ● Offer specific support programs tailored to individual toxicity
risk ● Analyze the mechanisms underlying treatment-related toxicities and identify new biomarkers for specific risks of side effects
Objective: To support patients throughout their care journey to help them overcome the disease and its treatments and prevent sequelae
Benefits for patients:
● Receive personalized support that complements their medical care
● Improve quality of life during and after treatment
Annual program budget: €150,000

Our therapeutic programs for Mieux Vivre Le Cancer
will move forward thanks to you
Dr. Florian Scotté, Medical Oncologist and Director of the Interdisciplinary Department for the Organization of Patient Care Pathways (DIOPP)
“Without you, we would not be able to carry out our research projects. Your commitment to our cause enables us to advance research on care pathways, directly benefiting patients. By assessing a patient’s psychological, social, and physical vulnerabilities even before they begin an intensive treatment regimen and by anticipating their needs early on, we can improve treatment tolerance and reduce its toxicity. Ultimately, patients will be able to more easily reintegrate into society and enjoy a better quality of life after treatment.”
Dr. Ines Vaz-Luis, Medical Oncologist and Researcher on Treatment Toxicities
“Thanks to scientific advances, we estimate that 18 million patients have survived cancer. However, a large proportion of them will face long-term consequences such as excess weight, constant fatigue, or emotional distress that permanently impair their quality of life. In light of this, we have decided to expand our research to include a new area of focus: follow-up care for patients after cancer. This new project will only be possible thanks to the generosity of donors!”
