Curative members can now screen for multiple cancers with Galleri

Curative is excited to provide eligible members and dependents access to the innovative Galleri® multi-cancer early detection test from GRAIL.

Galleri is the first-of-its-kind test that looks for a signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer with a single blood test.1

Curative members and dependents must meet the eligibility requirements for this program.

The Galleri test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. Galleri should be used in addition to healthcare provider recommended screening tests.

Actionable results

If a cancer signal is found, results can predict the tissue type or organ associated with the cancer signal. This helps your healthcare provider guide next steps to determine if cancer is present.1

The Galleri test looks for a signal associated with active cancer and does not predict your future genetic risk for cancer. Galleri is a screening test and does not diagnose cancer. Diagnostic testing is needed to confirm cancer. False positive and false negative results do occur. Galleri should be used in addition to screening tests your healthcare provider recommends.

What is the Galleri test?

Galleri is the first-of-its-kind multi-cancer early detection test—a test that looks for a signal shared by more than 50+ types of cancer with a single blood test. It is a screening test and does not diagnose cancer, further testing is required to confirm cancer.

What do Galleri test results mean?


What does a “No Cancer Signal Detected” result mean?

The Galleri test looked for a cancer signal in your blood sample and did not find one.

In a clinical study, less than 2% of individuals with a No Cancer Signal Detected result had cancer.1,2

This result does not completely rule out the possibility of cancer. The Galleri test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. This result does not predict whether you will develop cancer in the future.

NEXT STEPS

Continue with any routine cancer screenings your healthcare provider recommends. Do not ignore cancer signs or symptoms if they occur as this could lead to a delayed diagnosis.

What does a “Cancer Signal Detected” result mean?

The Galleri test looked for a cancer signal in your blood sample and found one. About 1 out of every 100 tests has a Cancer Signal Detected result.2*

This result will also include one or two predictions of the tissue type or organ associated with the cancer signal, called ​"Cancer Signal Origin."

In a clinical study, around 4 out of 10 people with this result were diagnosed with cancer after diagnostic testing.2


*In the PATHFINDER study2, out of 6,578 participants tested with Galleri, 58 had a Cancer Signal Detected result.

NEXT STEPS

A Cancer Signal Detected test result is not a cancer diagnosis and requires follow-up diagnostic testing which may include lab work or imaging ordered by your healthcare provider to confirm cancer.

To access the Galleri test as a fully covered offering, you must first complete your annual Curative Baseline Visit. Once completed, eligible members and dependents must request the test through an independent telemedicine healthcare provider via the test request process on Galleri.com/curative.

Please note, the blood draw associated with Galleri must occur on a date you are covered under this offering. Members are responsible for the full cost of the test when obtained via any other means such as a personal physician or when the blood draw date of service occurs after their Curative plan coverage has ended.

As part of this program, eligible Curative members and eligible dependents are each limited to one Galleri test during a 12-month period.

The Galleri test is a multi-cancer early detection test that screens for a signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer – many that lack recommended screening – through a simple blood draw. Galleri is a screening test and does not diagnose cancer. The Galleri test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood.

Every time you take the test, Galleri checks more than 100,000 DNA regions and over a million specific DNA sites to screen for a signal shared by multiple cancers. If a cancer signal is detected, results from the test can predict the tissue type or organ associated with the cancer signal. This information helps guide healthcare providers to perform a diagnostic evaluation for cancer.

The Galleri test looks for active cancer and does not predict future genetic risk for cancer

Cancer risk increases for everyone as they age, regardless of family history—only 5% to 10% of cancers are inherited.

Age is the biggest risk factor for cancer. In fact, adults over age 50 are 13 times more likely to have cancer compared to people under the age of 50

In a clinical study, Galleri detected a signal shared by over 50 types of cancer —including some fast-spreading and aggressive cancers responsible for approximately two-thirds of cancer deaths. Galleri is a cancer screening test, meaning it looks for cancer before symptoms appear. 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.

Please note, if you are interested in requesting the Galleri test please be sure to return to this landing page and start the process at Galleri.com/curative.

A “Cancer Signal Detected” result is expected in approximately 1% or 1 out of 100 Galleri tests in people over 50 years of age.

One of the ways we measure test accuracy is with Positive Predictive Value (PPV). PPV is the probability that a person with a “Cancer Signal Detected” test result truly has cancer.

In a recent clinical study, on average, 4 out of 10 people with a "Cancer Signal Detected" result received a cancer diagnosis with diagnostic testing, and 1 out of 200 people without cancer received a "Cancer Signal Detected" result.

(Positive Predictive Value was 43% and False Positive rate was 0.5%)

A False Positive is a test result that indicates that a person has a specific disease or condition when the person actually does not have the disease or condition.

No, Galleri is not a genetic risk assessment test. A genetic risk assessment is a one time only measurement and assesses your future risk of developing cancer. The Galleri test looks for a signal associated with active cancer at the time of your blood draw. Genetic tests may look at DNA and assess lifelong risk for cancer but cannot detect if a person currently has cancer.

Our goal is for Galleri to be a routine cancer screening test. By regularly using the Galleri test alongside recommended cancer screenings, you can increase your chance of finding cancer early.

No, the Galleri test is only commercially available in the US.

The Galleri test has not been cleared or approved by the FDA. Galleri is a Laboratory Developed Test. GRAIL’s clinical laboratory is certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) and accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP). GRAIL’s clinical laboratory is regulated under CLIA to perform high-complexity testing. The GRAIL clinical laboratory also holds a New York Department of Health Clinical Laboratory Evaluation Program (CLEP) permit.

The Galleri test detected a signal often associated with cancer. This result will also include one or two predictions of the tissue type or organ associated with the cancer signal, called ​“Cancer Signal Origin.”

Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider. This test result is not a cancer diagnosis and requires follow-up diagnostic testing which may include lab work or imaging ordered by your healthcare provider to confirm cancer. GRAIL also offers patients and providers additional support and resources if needed to help guide next steps.

False positive results do occur.

The Galleri test looked for a cancer signal in your blood sample and did not find one. A Galleri result of No Cancer Signal Detected does not rule out cancer. The Galleri test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. Continue with routine cancer screenings your healthcare provider recommends. This result does not predict whether you will develop cancer in the future.

False negative results do occur.

The Galleri test is intended to be used in addition to, and not replace, other cancer screening tests your healthcare provider recommends. Single-cancer screening tests are recommended because they have been proven to save lives by detecting cancer early. Using Galleri in addition to recommended single-cancer screenings can increase your chances of finding cancer early, when there may be more treatment options.

Galleri does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood.

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 healthcare provider. Galleri is intended to detect cancer signals and predict where in the body the cancer signal is located. Use of Galleri is not recommended in individuals who are pregnant, 21 years old or younger, or undergoing active cancer treatment.

Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of medical history, clinical signs and symptoms. A test result of ​“No Cancer Signal 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.
