A guided path back to work after blood cancer: a trial tests the impact

NCT ID NCT06262789

First seen Aug 10, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests whether a dedicated 'return-to-work after cancer' consultation can help people who have been treated for blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma get back to their jobs. The consultation, led by an occupational health specialist with possible support from a psychologist, nurse, or social worker, aims to identify obstacles and guide patients through the return-to-work process. The study includes adults aged 18 to 55 who have completed their main chemotherapy and have not yet returned to work. The main goal is to see if this early support increases the percentage of patients who return to work within a year, potentially improving their quality of life.

Active substance
A specialized 'return-to-work after cancer' consultation led by an occupational health specialist, with possible support from a psychologist, nurse, or social worker.
What this could lead to
If effective, this consultation could become a standard support service to help blood cancer survivors successfully return to work, improving their financial stability, social connections, and self-esteem.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial, and the benefit of the consultation may be limited by individual circumstances, workplace factors, or the severity of the cancer and its treatment. The outcome depends on many personal and occupational variables.
