The FDA advisory committee will review Grail's premarket approval application for its multi-cancer early detection blood test, Galleri, following trials showing moderate cancer detection rates and low false positives. This review represents the first regulatory assessment of a multi-cancer early detection test in the US.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Medtech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Approval of Galleri would open a new regulatory pathway in US cancer diagnostics and boost demand for blood-based tests. You should engage with US clinical partners now to prepare for rapid adoption if the test gains approval.
