Introducing Galleri®, the first-of-its-kind multi-cancer early detection test that looks for a signal shared by 50+ types of cancer with a single blood test.
The Galleri test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. False positive and false negative results do occur.
Galleri® redefines what’s possible. Only 5 cancers have recommended screening tests. Using Galleri® in addition to these tests can increase the chance of finding cancer early, to allow for earlier treatment.
With a single blood test, Galleri® screens for a signal shared by multiple cancers that would otherwise go unnoticed. If a cancer signal is detected, Galleri® predicts the tissue type or organ associated with the cancer signal with 88% accuracy* to help guide follow-up diagnostic testing which may include lab work or imaging to confirm cancer.
Age is the biggest risk factor for cancer. In fact, adults over age 50 are 13 times more likely to have cancer compared to people under the age of 50 Cancer risk increases for everyone as they age regardless of family history—only 5% to 10% of cancers are inherited.
The Galleri® test is recommended for adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those aged 50 or older.
Note: The Galleri® test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. False positive and false negative results do occur.
*In the PATHFINDER study, Cancer Signal Origin (CSO) prediction accuracy was 88% for participants with a cancer diagnosis among study participants with a “Cancer Signal Detected” test result.
