Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer screening test to see if it is safe and effective. 20,000 people will be enrolled over 18 months, and will be followed for 3 years.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals at least 50 years old who can consent to participate and are eligible for cancer screening. They shouldn't have had invasive cancer treatment in the last 3 years, except hormone therapy for breast or prostate cancer. Participants must be registered patients at a participating center and not pregnant.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The GRAIL multi-cancer early detection (MCED) test is being studied to see how safe and effective it is in detecting various cancers early on. If the test detects a potential cancer signal, participants will undergo further diagnostic procedures to confirm if they have cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves diagnostic testing rather than medication or intervention, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be psychological impacts from receiving results indicating a potential cancer diagnosis.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Safety: Number and type of invasive procedures performed in participants with a cancer signal detected by the multi-cancer early detection (MCED) test and no cancer diagnosis at the time of diagnostic resolution (i.e., false positive test result).
Test performance: diagnosis of invasive cancer, assessed by cancer signal origin (CSO) accuracy.
Test performance: diagnosis of invasive cancer, assessed by negative predictive value (NPV).
+5 more
Secondary outcome measures
Accuracy of initial multi-cancer early detection (MCED) test result and cancer signal origin prediction, among the subset of participants with a research blood draw.
Cancer detection rate of confirmatory PET-CT in participants for whom cancer signal origin directed workups do not result in diagnosis of cancer.
Number and type of diagnostic evaluations (imaging procedures, invasive procedures, laboratory test) by predicted cancer signal origin and outcome of diagnostic resolution.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Participants 50 years of age or olderExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The study will aim to enroll a diverse participant population generally representative of the US population with respect to race, ethnicity, and sex. The target age categories of 60-69 years and 70-79 years will be enriched to increase the number of cancer events that are observed during the study.
