Galleri multi-cancer early detection
What is the Galleri® Test?
The Galleri® Multi-Cancer Early Detection Test is a breakthrough blood test that can identify signals linked to more than 50 types of cancer with a single blood draw. Unlike standard cancer screenings that look for one cancer at a time, Galleri® uses advanced DNA analysis to detect abnormal patterns across the body and can often suggest where the cancer may be located.
Who is it for?
- Adults aged 50 and older
- People at increased risk for cancer who want to go beyond standard screenings
- Individuals who wish to take a proactive approach to their health
- Final eligibility is determined in your physician consult.
Important Information
- Galleri® does not diagnose cancer—it identifies cancer signals that require follow-up testing.
- It is NOT a replacement for recommended screenings like mammograms, colonoscopies, or Pap smears.
- A negative result does not completely rule out cancer.
Why consider Galleri®?
Most cancers are found after symptoms develop, when treatment options may be limited. Galleri® offers the possibility of detecting cancer earlier, when it may be more treatable, giving patients and doctors more time to act.
