- Grail’s Galleri blood test targets 50 types of cancer and aims to screen for many more types of tumor than was previously possible. Large-scale clinical trials are underway.
In this session, Sir Harpal Kumar, president, BioPharma business and europe,
GRAIL shares how GRAIL is using the power of next-generation sequencing, population-scale clinical studies, and state-of-the-art computer science and data science to enhance the scientific understanding of cancer biology, and to develop its multi-cancer early detection blood test.
The next step is the NHS-Galleri clinical trial-to demonstrate that the test works at scale “We will get first data from this trial next year, then if that data looks good, they will extend the pilot to a million people over the next few years, then complete it in the next three years,” says Kumar at WIRED Health 2023.
