#SFHZ2607943ADecree of 30 March 2026 on the 'Interception' Experiment: Cancer Prevention Pathway for High-Risk Individuals
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This French decree officially authorizes a four-year experimental program called 'Interception' starting from its publication date in 2026. The program establishes a dedicated cancer prevention pathway specifically targeting individuals identified as being at high genetic or medical risk of developing cancer. It aims to test new organized screening, surveillance, and early-intervention protocols outside the standard national screening programs. The experiment is defined by a detailed 'cahier des charges' (specifications document) that sets the exact inclusion criteria, medical protocols, participating centers, and evaluation methods. The first patient inclusion triggers the four-year clock, after which results will inform potential nationwide scaling.
