Introducing the Galleri test

The Galleri® test detects more than 50 types of cancer through a simple blood draw. Many of these cancer types are not commonly screened for today.

The Galleri test was in the Pathfinder 1 study, and now we’re able to offer it to all eligible patients. 

Finding cancer early is important

The earlier cancer is found, the higher the chance of successful treatment. The Galleri test helps you take control of your health by replacing worry with answers.

How the Galleri test works

All cells in your body release DNA into the bloodstream. But DNA from cancer cells is different from the DNA of healthy cells.

The Galleri test checks the DNA in your blood for any that may be from cancer cells. The results can also point to where in the body cancer is coming from.

Who can get the Galleri test?

The Galleri test is recommended for adults with a higher-than-average risk for cancer, such as those age 50 or older. It is meant to be used in addition to — not in place of — other cancer screening tests your health care provider recommends.

The Galleri test cannot detect all cancers. Your health care provider will discuss follow-up testing to confirm if cancer is present.

How much does the Galleri test cost?

The Galleri test costs $949, plus a $3 blood draw fee. It must be ordered by a licensed health care provider. It is not covered by insurance.
