A series of cutting-edge blood tests have ignited excitement among cancer specialists, promising a new era in oncology by detecting malignancies that previously went unnoticed until they reached advanced and less treatable stages.
Guardant Health runs the Shield blood test for colorectal cancer screening in its labs in Palo Alto and Redwood City, California.
Eric Klein, a lead scientist from the healthcare enterprise Grail and one of the minds behind the new multi-cancer detection test named Galleri, expressed optimism about the breakthrough. “It opens up a whole new world,” he said. These advances are a culmination of years of progress in various scientific domains. Discoveries in tumor biology, breakthroughs in machine learning, and the newfound ability to detect circulating DNA and other biological substances in the bloodstream have paved the way for the development of these tests.
