Finding Cancer Early is Important

Thinking about the possibility of having cancer can be overwhelming, but taking steps to find cancer early can help you feel more in control. Often, the earlier that cancer can be found, the higher the chance of better outcomes.3

of cancer deaths in people ages 50-79 are caused by cancers not commonly screened for.4,5,6

In fact, when cancers are diagnosed early before they have had a chance to spread, the overall 5-year survival rate is  4x higher  than when diagnosed in later stages.3,7

The Benefits of Multi-Cancer Detection

Early cancer detection

Detects many cancers not commonly screened for today, to allow for earlier treatment.1,8

Testing with ease

Completed with a simple blood draw.

Actionable results

If a cancer signal is found, the results can point to where in the body the cancer is coming from with high accuracy.

The Galleri test is intended to be used in addition to, and not replace, other cancer screening tests your health care provider recommends. The Galleri test does not detect all cancers nor does it measure your genetic risk of developing cancer in the future.

Receive your results and clinical action plan

Your results will be available approximately two weeks after your sample arrives at the GRAIL laboratory. At that time, Genome Medical will contact you via email or phone to review your test results and discuss next steps. Additionally, you’ll have the option to schedule a return of results session to further discuss your results. Once you receive your results, it’s important to share your results and clinical action plan with your primary care physician.

There are two possible results from the Galleri test:

Cancer Signal NOT Detected

This means that no cancer signal was found. However not all cancer types can be detected by the Galleri test, and the Galleri test may not detect all early stage cancers.

Cancer Signal Detected

This means that there is a suspicion of cancer. The Galleri test can point to where in the body (e.g., colon, head and neck) the cancer signal is coming from with high accuracy to help your health care provider guide next steps. Sometimes the test may indicate two locations in the body where the cancer signal may be coming from which may require separate follow-up evaluations.

Next steps:

Continue with all routine screening tests that your health care provider recommends. Missing routine cancer screenings or ignoring symptoms could lead to a delayed diagnosis of cancer. If you’re interested in repeating the Galleri test in one year, please contact Genome Medical.

Next steps:

The Galleri test does not diagnose cancer. Additional tests are needed to determine if cancer is present. Genome Medical will work with your primary care provider or connect you to a provider who can order additional tests.

The test does not measure your genetic risk of developing cancer in the future. With the Galleri multi-cancer early detection test, annual screening provides the opportunity to detect more cancers early. Your health care provider can help you determine when to take the Galleri test again based on your risk factors.

False-positive and false-negative test results can occur. The Galleri test has a low false-positive rate of 0.5% (detecting a cancer signal when no cancer is present).1

You can request the test without a pre-test consultation. However, a Genome Medical physician must review your provided health information to determine if the test is right for you.

Can I order the test through my personal healthcare provider?

Yes, you may speak to your primary care provider about ordering the test. To learn more please visit Galleri.com.

Is the test available outside of the United States?

The Galleri test is not yet commercially available outside of the United States or in US territories.

What is the Galleri test?

The Galleri test is a multi-cancer early detection test that detects more than 50 types of cancer, many of which are not commonly screened for today, through a simple blood draw. The Galleri test does not diagnose cancer and not all cancers can be detected by the test.

Which cancers does the Galleri test detect?

In a large-scale clinical evaluation sub-study of more than 4,000 people, the Galleri test detected more than 50 cancer types across all stages. The test identified ~17% of individuals with stage I cancer, 40% with stage II cancer, 77% of individuals with stage III cancer and 90% of stage IV cancers.

How can the Galleri test detect cancer in the blood?

The Galleri test looks for signals present in the blood that may be associated with cancer at the time of your blood draw. If a cancer signal is detected, the results can point to where in the body the cancer signal is coming from with high accuracy to help your healthcare provider guide next steps.

Why is the Galleri test recommended to be used along with other cancer screening tests?

The Galleri test screens for more than 50 cancers; however, not all cancers can be detected by Galleri. Recommended routine cancer screening tests, such as a colonoscopy or mammogram are commonly used and have been shown to reduce cancer deaths. Galleri is intended to be used in addition to, not to replace, these tests and can help maximize the benefits of early cancer detection. Missing recommended screening or ignoring symptoms could lead to a delayed diagnosis of cancer. Ask Genome Medical about which cancer screening tests are right for you.

What is the false positive rate of the Galleri test?

The Galleri test has a low false-positive rate of 0.5% (detecting a cancer signal when no cancer is present). This means that in approximately 200 people tested, only 1 person would be expected to receive a false positive result.

What data supports the Galleri test?

The Galleri test development was supported by what is believed to be the largest clinical study program in genomic medicine, with over 20,000 participants at more than 140 clinical study sites, including the Mayo Clinic, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Sutter Health, Oregon Health & Science University, Intermountain Healthcare, and U.S. Oncology Research.

How quickly will I receive my results?

It takes about 2 weeks after your blood draw to receive your test results.

At that time, Genome Medical will contact you via email or phone to schedule an optional post-test consultation with a Genome Medical clinician to review your test results and discuss the next steps. Once you receive your results, it’s important to share your results and clinical action plan (which will be provided by Genome Medical) with your primary care physician.

What does it mean if I receive a “Cancer Signal Not Detected” result?

This means that no cancer signal was found. However, not all cancers can be detected by the Galleri test, and not all cancers may be detected in the blood. Continue with all routine screening tests that your healthcare provider recommends. Missing routine screenings or ignoring symptoms can lead to a delayed diagnosis of cancer.

What does it mean if I receive a “Cancer Signal Detected” result?

This means that there is a suspicion of cancer, but not a diagnosis of cancer. The Genome Medical provider that ordered your test will share this result with you and what it may mean.

The Galleri test can point to where in the body the cancer is coming from with high accuracy to help your primary healthcare provider guide next steps. Your primary healthcare provider should order appropriate follow-up testing to confirm if cancer is present.

Genome Medical can share your results and clinical action plan with your primary care provider and other providers if requested.

Why are additional tests needed when the Galleri test detects a cancer signal?

Galleri is a screening test that detects cancer signals in blood. When a signal is detected, the Galleri test also indicates where in the body the signal is coming from with high accuracy.

The Galleri test is not a diagnostic test to confirm cancer status. Additional tests ordered by your primary healthcare provider are needed to confirm if cancer is present which may include blood work or imaging.

Can you share my Galleri test result with one of my healthcare providers?

Yes. You can request Genome Medical to share your test results and clinical action plan with any providers of your choosing.

Can I discuss my results with a Genome Medical healthcare provider?

Yes. You have the option to speak with a Genome Medical provider before and after the test is ordered.

I submitted my test request. What happens next?

What does it mean if I receive a “Cancer Signal Detected” result?

This means that there is a suspicion of cancer, but not a diagnosis of cancer. The Genome Medical provider that ordered your test will share this result with you and what it may mean.

The Galleri test can point to where in the body the cancer is coming from with high accuracy to help your primary healthcare provider guide next steps. Your primary healthcare provider should order appropriate follow-up testing to confirm if cancer is present.

Genome Medical can share your results and clinical action plan with your primary care provider and other providers if requested.

Why are additional tests needed when the Galleri test detects a cancer signal?

Galleri is a screening test that detects cancer signals in blood. When a signal is detected, the Galleri test also indicates where in the body the signal is coming from with high accuracy.

The Galleri test is not a diagnostic test to confirm cancer status. Additional tests ordered by your primary healthcare provider are needed to confirm if cancer is present which may include blood work or imaging.

Can you share my Galleri test result with one of my healthcare providers?

Yes. You can request Genome Medical to share your test results and clinical action plan with any providers of your choosing.

Can I discuss my results with a Genome Medical healthcare provider?

Yes. You have the option to speak with a Genome Medical provider before and after the test is ordered.

I submitted my test request. What happens next?

After you request the test, you will be asked to answer a few short health history questions. A healthcare provider from Genome Medical will review your request and assess your eligibility. If approved, the test will be ordered and sent to GRAIL within 1-2 business days.

GRAIL will email you your completed Test Requisition Form with directions on where to go for your blood draw. You will be shipped a Galleri specimen collection kit that you will bring to your blood draw appointment.

Once you receive your collection kit in the mail, you can schedule a blood draw appointment at one of GRAIL’s partner laboratories. Please do not open your collection kit – this should remain unopened when you take it to the lab.

Where can I get my blood drawn for the Galleri test?

If your Galleri test request is approved, you can schedule a blood draw appointment with one of GRAIL’s partner laboratories at no additional cost to you.

Please wait to schedule your blood draw appointment until you’ve received your collection kit in the mail. Please do not open your collection kit – this should remain unopened when you take it to the lab.

What should I bring to my blood draw appointment?

Bring your unopened Galleri collection kit and your completed and printed ‘Test Requisition Form’ to your blood draw appointment.

You will receive these items if your test is approved.

  • A collection kit will be mailed to you within one week after your request is approved. Please do not open the collection kit.
  • A completed Test Requisition Form will be emailed to you from GRAIL. Remember to print the form for your appointment.

If you did not receive an email and believe you should have, please contact GRAIL Customer Services at 833-694-2553 or customerservice@grail.com.

What is my Test Requisition Form and where can I find it?

The Test Requisition Form is the ordering form the provider completes to order the test for you. You will receive this document via an order confirmation email from GRAIL if the provider orders your test – typically within 1-2 business days from when you requested the test.

How do I return the Galleri kit after my blood draw?

The lab technician who draws your blood will pack and ship your sample back to the GRAIL laboratory for processing.

Do I need to fast prior to the blood draw?

No preparation or fasting is required.

Some lab technicians may ask if you have fasted, but rest assured this is not required for the Galleri test.

How much blood is needed for the Galleri test?

Approximately 1.5 tablespoons (or about 20 mL) of blood in two tubes typically from a vein in your arm.

How much does the Galleri test cost?

You will be charged $949 for the test and associated services once your sample has been received by GRAIL. Price includes Galleri test, blood draw services at partner labs, confirmation of clinical eligibility and test review by a Genome Medical physician, and optional consultation services. You may be able to use pre-tax dollars in your flexible spending account (FSA) or health savings account (HSA) to pay for the Galleri test. Check with your FSA/HSA account administrator or insurance company to determine eligibility.

Clinical eligibility must be met in order for Genome Medical to order the test. The test is currently not available outside of the US.

Is the Galleri test covered by insurance?

Currently, the Galleri test is not covered by insurance. The Galleri test is new to the market and represents a significant innovation to cancer screening. GRAIL is actively pursuing coverage from various sources; however, this process takes time.

What are my options if I cannot afford the Galleri test?

A flexible payment plan may be available to assist you. For more information, please contact GRAIL Customer Service by chat online, emailing customerservice@​grail.​com or calling 855−775−3613.

Can I use my HSA/FSA to pay for the Galleri test?

You may be able to use pre-tax dollars in your flexible spending account (FSA) or health savings account (HSA) to pay for the Galleri test. Check with your FSA/HSA account administrator or insurance company to determine eligibility.

How do I pay my Galleri bill?

You can pay your bill here or by calling 855−775−3613 with information provided on your statement. You may also send a check payment to GRAIL, Inc. at the following address: GRAIL, Inc. Dept LA 25195 Pasadena, CA 91185 – 5195. In the memo line on the check include your billing statement number and detach the bottom of your billing statement and send it along with your payment.

Important Safety Information

The Galleri® test is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those aged 50 or older. The Galleri test does not detect all cancers and should be used in addition to routine cancer screening tests recommended by a health care provider. Galleri is intended to detect cancer signals and predict where in the body the cancer signal is located.

Results should be interpreted by a health care provider in the context of medical history, clinical signs and symptoms. A test result of ​“Cancer Signal Not Detected” does not rule out cancer. A test result of ​“Cancer Signal Detected” requires confirmatory diagnostic evaluation by medically established procedures (e.g. imaging) to confirm cancer.

If cancer is not confirmed with further testing, it could mean that cancer is not present or testing was insufficient to detect cancer, including due to the cancer being located in a different part of the body. False-positive (a cancer signal detected when cancer is not present) and false-negative (a cancer signal not detected when cancer is present) test results do occur. Rx only.

Laboratory/Test Information

GRAIL’s clinical laboratory is certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) and accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP). The Galleri test was developed, and its performance characteristics were determined by GRAIL.
