Cancer Detection
True Body offers a groundbreaking multi-cancer early detection test that can identify a shared signal for over 50 types of cancer with just a single blood draw. This innovative test enables the detection of cancers as early as stages 1 and 2. While current screening methods exist for only 5 types of cancer, more than 70% of cancer-related deaths are due to cancers that have no recommended screening options. Our test makes it possible to detect both screenable and traditionally un-screenable cancers, significantly improving the chances of early diagnosis and treatment. By analyzing over 100,000 DNA regions, the test identifies unique methylation patterns specific to cancer cells. This not only confirms the presence of cancer but also provides insight into the tissue or organ of origin, guiding further diagnostic steps and personalized treatment plans.
What is the procedure for the test?
The testing process is a simple blood draw. Our team will collect 2 tubes of blood for testing.
How long does it take to get the results back?
Results can be expected within 2-3 weeks after the sample is received by True Body. However, in some cases, results may be available sooner.
How is this multi-cancer detection test different from traditional screenings?
Unlike conventional tests focusing on specific cancers, this test screens for a signal shared by multiple cancers, including those without established screening protocols.
Who is this test best for?
This test is recommended for adults with an elevated risk of cancer or those aged 50 or older. It offers a proactive approach to early detection for individuals in these categories.
