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
A blood test based on a 4-marker protein panel, combined with a personalized lung cancer risk assessment, more accurately determines who is likely to benefit from lung cancer screening than the current 2021 and 2013 US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendations, according to a study...
Today, screening protocols are based on identifying individuals considered likely to develop lung cancer, based on age and smoking status. However, reliance on these two risk factors alone is not enough, as preventative screening in this selected population misses most lung tumors. Moreover, individu...
The FirstLook test has a negative predictive value* of 99.8%.5 The FirstLook blood test offers a convenient and accessible way to enhance lung cancer screening and early lung cancer detection. *The negative predictive value represents the percentage of individuals with a Not Elevated result who ...
The use of low-dose CT (LDCT) as a screening tool for lung cancer hasbeen criticizedfor its high cost and its feasibility, given the large number of long-time heavy smokers and ex-smokers and the complexity of the process. What if a less expensive and more easily administered test could...
A blood test, combined with a risk model based on an individual's history, more accurately determines who is likely to benefit from lung cancer screening than the current U.S. recommendation, according to a study published today in the Journal of Clinica

Lung cancer is an uncontrolled cell growth in the lungs. CT scan is the main screening modality for lung cancer, while others such as sputum cytology, chest ray, and measurement of biomarker levels in the blood or blood tests for lung cancer may be recom
Although the test was originally developed for lung cancer, its logic can be applied to any cancer. It could be the best screening test for cancer around in a couple of years. As the first cancer cell develops, so it produces irregular proteins not normally present in the body. The immune...
