About this treatment

   

1 in 2 people in the UK born after 1960 will be diagnosed with some form of cancer during their lifetime. Detecting cancer in its early stages improves treatment effectiveness and significantly increases the likelihood of a positive outcome. Additionally, it aids in preventing cancer from spreading to other parts of the body.

The TruCheck test is capable of identifying over 70 cancers – including breast, prostate, lung, melanoma and bowel cancer.

Trucheck is the culmination of years of collaborative international research and innovation and has been developed, tested, and validated in clinical trials on over 40,000 participants which found the test has a sensitivity of 88.2 per cent, which is its ability to detect circulating tumour cells (CTCs) in blood samples from cancer cases. The test is 96.8 per cent accurate, and even early-stage cancers are reliably observed.

The Intelli Cancer Detection Blood Test allows you to take control of your health and provides you with that all-important peace of mind.

At your consultation, your doctor will talk you through the test and answer any questions. We take a small blood sample to send to the laboratory for testing.

 

You can choose to screen for multiple cancers or choose to target a specific type of cancer. The choice is personal, some patients prefer to screen for the largest possible number of cancers. Other patients want to do a more targeted screen.

  • Trucheck™ Intelli – up to 70 solid tumours
  • Trucheck™ Breast
  • Trucheck™ Prostate
  • Trucheck™ Colon 

The blood test is analysed at the specialist world-class laboratory which will share your test report with your doctor in about 2 weeks’ time.

A positive result means that CTCs have been found in your blood. The test results will indicate the location for the select type of cancers with high accuracy, and in other cancers the tissue of origin can be identified with reasonable accuracy. This means we can tell you where the cancer started developing in your body.

With any positive result, a member of the clinical team will call you personally to discuss your results, what they mean and guide you on your next steps which would include a referral. We have an established patient pathway if you get a positive result.

Our test can identify a wide range of solid organ cancers (cancers which affect organs, rather than blood) including:

  • Melanoma
  • Head and Neck
  • Salivary Gland
  • Thyroid
  • Lung
  • Breast
  • Liver
  • Biliary Tract
  • Gastrointestinal
  • Soft Tissue
  • Osteosarcomas
  • Mesothelioma
  • Urinary Tract
  • Gynaecological
  • Prostate
  • Thymus
  • Adrenal
  • Central Nervous System

And many more!

Trucheck can help people without symptoms, who have a higher cancer risk, due to family history or age.
