Grail stock slumps after NHS Galleri trial misses primary endpoint

Grail's stock fell more than 45% after-hours after NHS-Galleri trial failed to meet its primary endpoint, showing no statistically significant reduction in later-stage cancers overall; however, a pre-specified group of 12 deadly cancers showed a favorable trend toward fewer stage III-IV cancers, with greater reductions in stage IV diagnoses across sequential screening rounds. The company will extend follow-up by 6-12 months to seek stronger effects, and it also reported 17% full-year revenue growth to $147.2 million, with U.S. Galleri revenue up 26% to $136.8 million.

Major UK Trial Undermines Promise of Galleri Multi-Cancer Blood Test

In a large UK trial of 142,000 adults over three years, Grail's Galleri multi-cancer blood test did not reduce late-stage cancers (stages 3–4), though researchers noted a secondary signal of fewer Stage 4 cancers; the test remains FDA-unapproved, is sold with limited insurer coverage, and Medicare coverage remains under legislative review.

Rush Launches Blood Test to Detect Over 50 Cancers Amid Industry Hesitation

Rush University is now offering the Galleri blood test, which can detect over 50 types of cancer early by identifying cancer DNA in the bloodstream, despite it not yet being FDA-approved. The test has shown promise in clinical trials and could significantly improve early cancer detection, but some health systems remain cautious due to concerns about accuracy, cost, and regulatory approval.

"Challenges to Grail's Galleri Cancer Liquid Biopsy Evaluation Plan"

WHO scientists are questioning the clinical trial endpoint being used by Grail to evaluate its Galleri blood test, which aims to detect multiple types of tumors early. The test is currently available in the U.S. but not yet approved by the FDA or reimbursed by Medicare, and Grail generated $30 million in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023 while incurring a $197 million loss. If successful, the Galleri test could revolutionize cancer screening as a multi-cancer early detection test, but concerns about its evaluation process persist.

"Grail's Multi-Cancer Blood Test Shows Promise in Large Study"

Grail, a blood testing company, presented the results of a large study at ASCO23, which showed that its commercial blood test, Galleri, could be used to diagnose patients suspected of having cancer due to symptoms such as abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, or unexplained weight loss. The test searches for the genetic fingerprints of cancer in the blood, and Grail hopes that doctors will consider it as an alternative to expensive scans or invasive biopsies.
