GALLERI MULTI-CANCER TEST
Beating cancer starts with knowing you have it.
What if you found cancer early enough to make a difference?
As you know, you and your health are our first priority here at Rewind Anti-Aging of Miami, which is why we want to tell you more about a novel multi-cancer early-detection test we’re now offering.
Introducing the Galleri Multi-Cancer Early-Detection Test*—an innovative breakthrough in early cancer detection that detects more than 50 types of cancer, many of which are not commonly screened for today.
Over 600,000 people will die from cancer this year in the United States.
What is the Galleri Multi-Cancer Early Detection Test?
Key Benefits of the Galleri Test?
Early Cancer Detection
Detects a cancer signal shared by many cancers, including cancers not routinely screened for today, to allow for earlier treatment.
Early detection can help improve treatment outcomes and survival. The Galleri test detects many cancers that are not commonly screened for today, allowing for earlier treatment. The test analyzes small fragments of DNA in the bloodstream to determine if there are fragments that may have come from cancer cells. If a DNA cancer signal is detected, the test is also designed to identify where in the body the signal may be coming from and guide further testing.
Testing With Ease
Completed with a simple blood draw.
Actionable Results
If a cancer signal is found, the results can point to where in the body the cancer is coming from to help guide your next steps.

of cancer deaths are caused by cancers not commonly screened for today.
Beating cancer starts with knowing you have it.
What is the Importance of Early Detection?
The vast majority of cancers show no symptoms until later stages, when treatment options may be limited.
Finding cancer early is important to improve treatment outcomes and survival.
When cancers are diagnosed early before they have had a chance to spread, the overall 5-year survival rate is 4x higher than when diagnosed in later stages.
The most important cancer is the one that you or your loved one may have – and ‘beating’ it starts with knowing you have it.
How does the Galleri test work?
All cells in your body release DNA fragments into the bloodstream, but DNA from of healthy cells is different from the DNA of cancer cells. The Galleri test looks at the DNA in your blood to determine if any of it may have come from cancer cells.
Because the DNA from each type of cancer is unique, the results can point to the type and location of the cancer.
Who can benefit from the test?
The Galleri test is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those aged 50 or older, adults with an increased risk for cancer, such as family history or personal history. It is intended to be used in addition to and not replace other recommended cancer screening tests.

The Galleri Test does not detect all cancers and should be used in addition to routine cancer screening tests.
A test result of “cancer signal not detected” does not rule out cancer.
A test result of “cancer signal detected” requires confirmatory diagnostic evaluation.
