Abstract
Multi-Cancer Early Detection is a highly popular topic, bringing the hope of being able to detect very early, non-symptomatic cancers and allowing more successful therapy. A major company in this space is GRAIL, which has attracted very significant financing and launched large-scale tests of its detection systems. However, the real clinical utility of these tests remains to be demonstrated, and fundamental issues are still pending.
