A new test is being called “a game-changer” because it will allow early detection of up to 50 kinds of cancer based on a simple blood draw in a doctor’s office.
Galleri, a California company, developed the test called Galleri. The company says the test can spot “signals” of up to 50 cancers, including hard-to-detect and deadly cancers such as pancreatic, ovarian, and esophageal,The test works with blood drawn by a healthcare provider. The blood is sent to the Galleri lab, where the test tracks any DNA shed by cancer cells.
But the company said the test could result in more early detection of cancer, which doctors stress as a key in helping people survive cancer. The American Cancer Society says 71% of cancer deaths are caused by cancers that are not normally screened for.
