REMUSCLON: Neuromuscular Deconditioning and Reconditioning in Colon Cancer Patients: an APA Muscle Rendorcement Program
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Colon cancer is a real public health problem with more than 46,000 new cases diagnosed per year in France and about 650 cases in Burgundy. Muscle deconditioning (MD), which is characterized by a loss of muscle mass and function, is a frequent consequence in cancer patients and conditions the prognosis. Therefore, it is essential to understand its complex etiology in oncology in order to address the real need for therapeutic countermeasures in clinical practice. DM is a multifactorial process that is exacerbated by therapies. It induces neurogenic and muscular alterations that can profoundly affect patients' quality of life.
Currently, analyses of this phenomenon in oncology have been limited essentially to a global evaluation of physical performance, neglecting the muscular and nervous nature of the adaptations responsible for it.
Most studies analyzing the therapeutic effects of physical activity (PA) have shown numerous physiological and psychological benefits of aerobic exercise. However, this form of PA is still not very effective in preserving muscle mass.
Only muscle strengthening can have an anabolic effect by accelerating the rate of protein synthesis.

Procedure: Muscle biopsies
Optional
In pre-training:
Biopsy performed during the digestive surgery procedure
Final evaluation (minimum 1 day and maximum 7 days after the last training session): biopsy performed in the digestive surgery department.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Acceptability of the program in terms of the number of sessions attended [Up to Week 30 (evaluation 4) for patients]
Tolerance in terms of level of effort and pain will be tested at each session and will condition the continuation or not of the sessions and therefore acceptability
- Acceptability of the program in terms of the number of sessions attended [Up to Week 1 (evaluation 1) for healthy patients]
Tolerance in terms of level of effort and pain will be tested at each session and will condition the continuation or not of the sessions and therefore acceptability
