Galleri® multi-cancer early detection test
The Galleri® test screens for a signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer with a single blood draw*. At Live Healthy Hydrate in Cincinnati, Galleri testing includes an in-person consultation with our team of certified nurse practitioners and registered nurses.
Galleri testing requires an established primary care provider who can follow up with you if your result shows a cancer signal. We’ll confirm your provider’s information ahead of your test.
*The Galleri test does not detect a signal for every cancer. False positive and false negative results can occur. Galleri should be used alongside the cancer screenings your healthcare provider recommends.
Screening for cancers that often start without symptoms
Many cancers cause no symptoms in their early stages. The Galleri test was developed by GRAIL, Inc. a healthcare and life sciences company. It is designed to find a cancer signal early, including signals from cancer types that have no recommended screening test today. An early signal gives you and your care team more time to plan the next step.
How does the Galleri test work?
Cancer cells shed small fragments of DNA into the bloodstream. The fragments carry patterns that can act like a fingerprint for cancer. The Galleri test looks for that fingerprint in your blood sample.
When the test finds a cancer signal, it also predicts where in the body the signal most likely came from. The predicted location helps guide follow-up testing.
Galleri looks for signs of cancer that may already be present. It does not test for inherited genes or predict your future risk of cancer.
Cancer types the Galleri test screens for
The Galleri test screens for a signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer. GRAIL’s studies detected cancer signals in people with many cancer types, including:
- Breast
- Colon and rectum
- Lung
- Pancreas
- Liver
- Ovary
- Prostate
- Stomach and esophagus
- Lymphoma and leukemia
Detection rates vary by cancer type and stage. A cancer on this list can still go undetected.
Where Galleri fits in your screening routine
Keep up with the mammograms, colonoscopies and other cancer screenings your doctor recommends. Galleri is designed to be used alongside them.
Like any screening test, Galleri has limits. The test does not detect a signal for every cancer and can return false positive or false negative results.
Who should consider the Galleri test?
The Galleri test is recommended for adults with a higher risk for cancer, such as adults age 50 and older. Our clinical team can review your health and family history with you to decide whether Galleri is a good fit.
The test is not recommended for people who:
• Are pregnant
• Are 21 years old or younger
• Are in active cancer treatment
Understanding your Galleri results
Your result comes back as either “No Cancer Signal Detected” or “Cancer Signal Detected.” Our clinical team reviews it with you alongside your health history and explains what comes next.
No Cancer Signal Detected
This result means the test found no cancer signal in your sample. It does not rule out cancer. Stay on schedule with your routine screenings and ask our team about testing again next year.
Cancer Signal Detected
This result means the test found a signal that needs follow-up. It also includes a prediction of where in the body the signal came from.
A signal is not a diagnosis. Diagnostic testing, such as imaging, is needed to confirm whether cancer is present. Our team will talk you through the result and help you plan next steps.

Does Galleri replace my mammogram or colonoscopy?

Is the Galleri test FDA approved?
The Galleri test is available today by prescription. It has not yet been cleared or approved by the FDA. In September 2026, an FDA advisory panel voted in favor of the test. The FDA makes the final call, with a decision expected in the coming months. GRAIL’s lab is CLIA-certified and accredited by the College of American Pathologists.

You may be able to use HSA or FSA funds. Check with your plan administrator to confirm.
Who should not take the Galleri test?
GRAIL does not recommend the test for people who are pregnant, are 21 or younger, or are in active cancer treatment. Galleri is intended for adults with a higher risk for cancer, such as those age 50 and older. Our team can help you decide whether the test is a good fit.
What happens if my result shows a cancer signal?
A Cancer Signal Detected result means you need follow-up diagnostic testing, such as imaging, to find out whether cancer is present. The result on its own is not a diagnosis. It includes a predicted location for the signal, which helps guide that testing. Our team will walk you through the result and your next steps.
How often should I take the Galleri test?
GRAIL designed the Galleri test so it can be taken once a year. A yearly Galleri test works alongside the screenings your doctor already recommends. Talk with our team about timing that fits your health history and current screening schedule.
