Service Overview

At LifeGenix, we offer advanced blood-based cancer screening services through our partnership with Galleri. These cutting-edge tests are designed to detect early signs of cancer, allowing for timely intervention and potentially life-saving treatments. Both services utilize innovative technology to identify circulating tumor cells (CTCs) or detect cancer signals from DNA fragments, even before traditional imaging methods can identify tumors. This enables the early detection of various cancer types, including those without routine screening options.

Key Statistics

Galleri Test: Approximately doubles the number of cancers detected compared to standard screenings, with a 99.5% specificity rate, minimizing false positives. It has a sensitivity of 76.3% for 12 of the deadliest cancers and provides an 88% accuracy for detecting cancer origin.

Risk Factors

Individuals at higher risk for cancer include:

  • Age: The risk of cancer increases with age.
  • Family History: A genetic predisposition can raise the likelihood of developing cancer.
  • Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, alcohol use, poor diet, and lack of physical activity increase the risk.
  • Environmental Exposure: Prolonged exposure to certain chemicals or radiation can also elevate cancer risks.

Benefits of Screening

Early cancer detection can significantly improve treatment outcomes and survival rates. By incorporating advanced screening method like Galleri, LifeGenix offers a proactive approach to health that provides numerous benefits:

  • Early Detection Saves Lives: Detecting cancer at an early stage allows for more treatment options, less invasive therapies, and higher survival rates. Galleri’s high sensitivity for multiple cancer types, enable detection before symptoms appear.
  • Broader Cancer Detection: Traditional screenings often focus on a few common cancers (e.g., breast, colon, lung). The Galleri test screens for over 50 types of cancer, many of which lack routine screening methods. This significantly expands the scope of cancers that can be detected early.
  • Minimized False Positives:  Galleri uses advanced technology to reduce false positives. Galleri, for example, boasts a 99.5% specificity rate, minimizing unnecessary diagnostic procedures. This ensures a more reliable screening process and reduces stress for patients.
  • Informed Treatment Pathways: With the Galleri test, healthcare providers receive information on the cancer signal origin with 88% accuracy, helping guide next steps for diagnostic testing and treatment. This precision enables faster, more targeted follow-up actions.
  • Non-Invasive and Convenient: The test is simple, non-invasive blood tests, making them convenient and accessible. There’s no need for complex procedures or significant downtime, allowing individuals to maintain their routine while staying proactive about their health.
  • Screening for High-Risk Individuals: Galleri’s test is particularly beneficial for those with a family history of cancer or other risk factors.
