WATCH: When Valerie first heard about the #GalleriTest, she was curious. Though she had no health concerns, she took the test and had a Cancer Signal Detected result with predicted Cancer Signal Origin of Pancreas and Gallbladder. Hear more of Valerie’s story and ask your healthcare provider if Galleri is right for you. #DetectCancerEarly #GallbladderCancer The Galleri test should be used in addition to healthcare provider recommended screening tests. The Galleri test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. False positive and false negative results do occur. Galleri’s overall sensitivity in study participants with gallbladder cancer was 70.6% (0% for stage I, 33.3% for stage II, 75.0% stage III, 100% stage IV). Based on a clinical study of people ages 50 to 79, around 1% are expected to receive a cancer signal detected result. After diagnostic evaluation, around 40% of these people are expected are expected to have a confirmed cancer diagnosis. To learn more and for Important Safety Information visit Galleri.com

🌸 February is dedicated to Ovarian Cancer Awareness! Ovarian cancer is a challenging disease where abnormal cell growth occurs in one or both ovaries, leading to cancer. Early detection of ovarian cancer remains a challenge as there is currently no specific test. Therefore, it's crucial for all women to stay vigilant and be aware of the symptoms. Some commonly reported signs of ovarian cancer include: 1. Increased abdominal size or persistent bloating. 2. Abdominal or pelvic (lower tummy) pain. 3. Feeling full quickly after eating a small amount. 4. Needing to urinate often or urgently. Let's spread awareness and empower each other to recognize these signs! #OvarianCancerAwareness #KnowTheSymptoms #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #FijiNews

🏥 Men's Health Matters: Importance of Prostate Exams & Early Cancer Detection April is Men's Health Month, a time to raise awareness about the critical importance of regular prostate exams and early detection of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men worldwide, but with early detection, it is highly treatable. Regular screenings, including the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test and digital rectal exam (DRE), can help catch cancer in its early stages when treatment options are most effective. Men over 50, or those with a family history of prostate cancer, are at higher risk and should prioritize regular screenings. However, recent studies suggest starting screenings at age 45 for high-risk individuals, including African American men and those with a family history of the disease. Ignoring symptoms or skipping screenings can lead to advanced prostate cancer, which is more difficult to treat and can have serious consequences. Early detection saves lives. Encourage the men in your life to prioritize their health by scheduling regular check-ups with their healthcare provider. Together, we can raise awareness, promote early detection, and save lives. #MensHealth #ProstateCancerAwareness #EarlyDetection

Today is World Bladder Cancer Day, marking the final day of Bladder Cancer Awareness Month. Over 610,000 people are diagnosed with bladder cancer annually, and 1.9 million live with the condition. Despite being the ninth most common cancer, it’s often overlooked in research and support. Early detection is key! Blood in the urine, recurrent UTIs, and frequent urination can be warning signs. Smoking is the biggest risk factor. Let’s start conversations to raise awareness, highlight symptoms, and encourage timely medical advice. Together, we can ensure no one faces this journey alone. Watch this important message from Silas Nicholls, Chief Executive of Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, and Professor Alison Birtle, Consultant Oncologist. 🎥 🔗 worldbladdercancer.org #BladderCancerAwareness #WorldBladderCancerDay #EarlyDetection #CancerSupport

Tomorrow, it is World Head & Neck Cancer Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about these often-overlooked cancers and supporting those affected by them.   Head & neck cancers encompass a wide range of tumors affecting the mouth, throat, nose, sinuses, and other areas. Awareness, early detection and timely treatment are crucial for improving outcomes and quality of life for patients.   At OBT we are working hard to develop novel oncology targets that hold promise of transforming treatment options and improving outcomes for patients facing these challenging diagnoses.   Let's raise awareness and support research efforts aimed at better understanding and treating these diseases. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those impacted by head and neck cancers.   #WorldHeadAndNeckCancerDay #CancerAwareness #Healthcare

Have you been reducing or eliminating your consumption of alcohol? If so, you're doing more for your health than just lowering the risk for high blood pressure and liver disease. According to a study by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, slowing down or eliminating alcohol use lowers your risk of developing oral cavity and esophagus cancers. "While more data is needed to conclude whether the same is true for other cancer types, including colorectal, breast, and liver cancer, reducing or ceasing to drink alcohol will likely lessen the risk of oral and esophagus cancers," said Farhad Islami, a cancer epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society and an author of the report.
