This July, SPAGN and our global member organizations invite you to be part of an international campaign focused on recognizing the signs of sarcoma — and taking action.

Sarcomas are rare cancers with symptoms that often go unnoticed: a lump, swelling, persistent pain, or loss of mobility. These signs are frequently misread or dismissed, which can lead to delays in receiving the right care.

This year’s focus is on helping people notice what’s not normal, trust their instincts, and speak up — while encouraging healthcare providers to listen, refer, and investigate when something doesn’t add up.

From patients and caregivers to clinicians and advocates, every voice counts in the effort to make sarcomas visible and recognized.
