You’ve spent decades building a life, a career, a family.
Screening is one way to stay present for what matters - and to act
with the same foresight that you apply to the rest of your life.

Why Screening Matters
Many cancers are discovered only after symptoms appear2. Detecting cancer sooner significantly improves treatment outcomes, yet many cancers still lack routine screening pathways3.
These 10 cancer types collectively account for approximately two‑thirds of all cancer‑related death4:

A New Era of Cancer Screening
Advances in genomics and blood-based testing technologies are expanding what may be possible in cancer detection.
Blood-based Multi-Cancer Detection (MCD) tests analyse signals in the bloodstream associated with cancer. These signals can be present even when no symptoms are felt5 - which is why some people choose to take a more proactive approach.
Screen for a range of cancer types with a single blood test:
1.
One blood draw
2.
2 weeks waiting time*
3.
Your doctor will discuss the results with you
Top 10 aggressive cancers (defined as highest mortality) covered by blood-based MCDs4:
Bladder
Liver
(Hepatocellular)
Breast
Lung
Colorectal
Ovarian
Esophageal
Pancreatic
Stomach
(Gastric)
Prostate
*Disclaimer:
The two‑week timeframe is an estimate for the receipt of results, based on average waiting periods, and may vary depending on logistical and analytical factors.

Closing the Screening Gap
Screening isn’t always straightforward but is becoming easier to fit into how you already manage your health. Because staying on top of your health is one way to stay present for what matters.
Why people don’t always get screened
What makes this approach different
Screening can feel easy to put off or delay
A single blood draw can look for signals across multiple cancers
Not all cancers have screening guidelines and are not routinely checked for today6
An MCD test may include cancers that are not routinely screened for
Uncertainty or concerns can make screening feel overwhelming
Blood based MCD test is designed to be simple and fit into routine health checks
Finding time for appointments and preparation can be a challenge7
Most MCDs do not require pre-test preparation
It’s just a blood test

Who Should Consider Screening?
Whether you’ve been busy building a life, managing wellness your way or planning ahead, screening may be worth considering from age 45.
Lapsed
Has life pushed screening off your list?
You’re often focused on the people and responsibilities that count on you. Screening can help keep your own health in the picture too.
Late
Are you waiting for the right time to screen?
You know screening matters, but it is easy to wait for a better time. Taking the next step can help turn intention into action.
Lagging
Does screening sit low on your priority list?
You may feel well and have other health habits in place, so screening may not feel urgent. But it can still be part of staying proactive.
Are You Suitable?
Certain factors may influence when and how often screening is recommended. The following is not a medical assessment. Eligibility should be confirmed by your healthcare provider.
How old are you?
Under 4545 - 5455 - 6465 and older
Why it matters?
Cancer risk generally increases with age. Understanding your risk factors can help you have more informed conversations about screening.
Do you currently have a cancer diagnosis, or are you under investigation for cancer?
YesNo
Why it matters?
Multi-cancer screening is intended for people without a known cancer
diagnosis. If you are currently being investigated or treated, your oncologist
or specialist should guide your next step.

Why it matters?
Screening needs can change with age, health history and available options. If
it has been a while, it may be worth revisiting the conversation. The MCD test
should complement, and not replace your existing wellness routine.
Speak with your oncologist first
