The Galleri® multi-cancer early detection blood test is a screening test and does not diagnose cancer. Diagnostic testing is needed to confirm cancer. The Galleri test is not a genetic risk assessment and does not predict future genetic risk for cancer. 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 should be used in addition to healthcare provider recommended screening tests. Important Safety Information: The Galleri test is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those age 50 or older. Use of the test is not recommended in individuals who are pregnant, 21 years old or younger, or undergoing active cancer treatment.
