The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the possible benefits and harms of screening with an investigational blood test designed to detect many types of cancer early. The name of the screening blood test being studied is: -GRAIL Galleri test
This is a prospective, interventional study to assess the use of the GRAIL's Galleri multi-cancer early detection (MCED) Test, an investigational blood test designed to detect many types of cancer, for participants that are considered at slightly higher than average risk of developing certain types of cancers. The test looks for small pieces of genetic material called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the blood that may indicate the presence of cancer. The research study procedures include screening for eligibility, blood tests, questionnaires, and clinic visits. Participation in this research study is expected to last up to 3 years. It is expected that about 1,000 people will take part in this research study.

RECRUITINGCancer Detection Rate
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize the number and types of cancers diagnosed by GRAIL Galleri MCED testing.
Time frame: Up to 2 years
Stage of Invasive Cancer Diagnosis
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize the stages of invasive cancer that are diagnosed by GRAIL Galleri MCED testing and assessed by medical record review.
Time frame: Up to 2 years
Positive Predictive Value At 12 Months
Positive Predictive Value is defined as the proportion of participants with cancer diagnosis out of all participants with "signal detected" on GRAIL Galleri MCED test results.
Time frame: At 12 months
Positive Predictive Value at 24 Months
Positive Predictive Value is defined as the proportion of participants with cancer diagnosis out of all participants with "signal detected" on GRAIL Galleri MCED test results.
Time frame: At 24 months
Time to Diagnostic Resolution
Defined as the time required to achieve diagnostic resolution following a "signal detected" GRAIL Galleri MCED test result.
Time frame: Calculated from the date of return of screening results (up to 4 weeks from baseline) until up to 24 months post screening
Test Type Utilization to Diagnostic Resolution
Per participant the count of the number and types of diagnostic tests required to achieve diagnostic resolution following a "signal detected" GRAIL Galleri MCED test result.
Time frame: Up to 24 months

Change in Participant Anxiety
Changes in anxiety following the GRAIL Galleri MCED test result and assessed by the Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Emotional Distress Anxiety - Short Form 6a, which is a 6 item survey that is rated on a 5-point Likert scale with answers ranging from "Never" to "Always". The range of scoring is from 6 to 30 with higher scores indicating greater severity of anxiety.
Time frame: Up to 24 months
Change in Participant Health-related Quality of Life
Changes in health-related quality of life following the GRAIL Galleri MCED test result and assessed by PROMIS Scale v1.2 - Global Health, a 10 item survey that is rated on a 5-point Likert scale with answers ranging from "Excellent/Completely/Never/None" to "Poor/Not at all/Always/Very Severe" and includes a pain average question rated on a scale of 0 "No Pain" to 10 "Worst Pain Imaginable." The range of scoring is from 9 to 45 with higher scores indicating higher quality of life.
Time frame: Up to 24 months
Cost of Follow-up Testing
Defined as the dollar cost, per participant, of follow-up testing to achieve diagnostic resolution following a "signal detected" GRAIL Galleri MCED test result.
Time frame: Up to 24 months
Institutional Reimbursement of Follow-up Testing
Defined as the dollar cost, per participant, of the institutional reimbursement of follow-up testing to achieve diagnostic resolution following a "signal detected" GRAIL Galleri MCED test result.
Time frame: Up to 24 months
