Visit a local lab
Request the test through this website. If approved, the kit will be mailed to you, and you can schedule an appointment with a blood draw technician at home or a local lab.
Galleri is available by prescription only. By requesting the test and completing the health questionnaire, you're requesting a prescription from an independent telemedicine provider.
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. Galleri does not diagnose cancer, diagnostic workup required to confirm cancer. The Galleri test identifies DNA in the bloodstream shed by cancer cells and does not predict future genetic risk for cancer. Galleri should be used in addition to healthcare provider recommended screening tests.
Galleri is a blood test that can detect 50+ cancer types and can be taken annually.1,2

Limited data exists regarding the performance of the Galleri test in individuals <50 years of age.2,3,4
The Galleri test detected DNA fragments associated with cancer in your blood sample. About 1 out of every 100 test has a Cancer Signal Detected result.5
This result will also include a prediction of the issue type or organ associated with the cancer signal, called a Cancer SIgnal Origin (CSO). This provides direction to your doctor on the cancer’s origin and can help guide the next steps for diagnosis.2,8
In a clinical study, around 6 out of 10 people with a Cancer Signal Detected result were diagnosed with cancer after diagnostic testing.13*
A Cancer Signal Detected test result is not a cancer diagnosis and requires follow-up diagnostic testing. Such testing may include lab work or imagining ordered by your healthcare provider to confirm cancer.
*Based on the first ~25,000 participants with 1 year of follow-up.
The Galleri test did not detect DNA fragments associated with cancer in your blood sample.
Nearly 99% of people who use the Galleri test will screen negative.5
This result does not completely rule out the possibility of cancer. While the Galleri test is a powerful tool, it cannot detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. Some cancers shed little or no DNA into the bloodstream, making them unlikely to be detected through a blood test (e.g., brain, skin, and early-stage breast and prostate cancers).14 False positive and false negative results do occur. This result does not predict whether you will develop cancer in the future.
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 delayed diagnosis.
Cancer can be unpredictable. The Galleri test can be taken as a simple blood test. Adding the Galleri test to an annual routine can improve your chance of finding cancer early.12

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