Multi-cancer early detection test for military veterans
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial is testing a blood test that looks for early signs of multiple types of cancer. It is designed for current or former military members who are at least 45 years old and have used VA healthcare. If the test finds something, you would need to be willing to travel to Boston for follow-up.

This study looks at ways to improve the process of diagnosing cancer in people who have signs or symptoms that might be cancer. It may help find cancer earlier and improve care.
This study tests a blood-based multi-cancer early detection (MCED) screening test in people with a high risk of cancer due to inherited gene changes or strong family history. The goal is to see if this test can find cancer early.
This study looks at how a blood test called Galleri (and also how it compares when people have not yet had it) works for older adults with Medicare. It may help find whether the test can improve cancer detection or follow-up for people who are not already in urgent cancer workups.
This trial uses a blood test to find early signs of cancer or leftover tumor cells after treatment. It may help people with certain cancers or those with non-cancerous growths understand their condition better.
This trial checks whether a blood test can detect early signs of multiple cancers in people who feel well. It may help find cancer earlier, when treatment is more likely to work.
This study uses a blood test to look for DNA changes that could signal cancer early. It includes both people with cancer and healthy volunteers to help build a better screening tool.
