Breakthrough Test Performance

SENSITIVITY: True Positive Rate

This means that the Galleri test reported a “Cancer Signal Detected” result correctly in approximately 52 individuals out of 100 who actually had cancer (but will miss 48 of them).
SPECIFICITY: True Negative Rate

This means that the Galleri test reported a “Cancer Signal Not Detected” result correctly in approximately 99 individuals out of 100 who do not actually have cancer. This means a negative test is a true negative 99.5% of the time
FALSE POSITIVE RATE

This means that the Galleri test will report a “Cancer Signal Detected” incorrectly in 1 in every 200 tests run.
CANCER SIGNAL ORIGIN ACCURACY

This means when a cancer signal was detected in an individual who actually had cancer, the first Cancer Signal Origin was correctly predicted 89 of 100 times.
