What is Cancersafe test?

It is a highly sophisticated blood test to detect early cancer. Tumor markers have long been used, either to screen for cancers or to monitor cancer treatments, to track and screen for recurrences. Cancersafe test uses a panel of 10/11 tumor markers (10 for women, 11 for men). Tumor markers are molecules appearing in the blood in relation to development of some of the most important cancers. Measurement or identification of tumor markers is useful, because it can detect substances in the blood in early stages, a signal that further medical attention is needed.

Cancersafe test can also be useful in follow-up if you are being treated for the illness. Variations of the tumor markers can be followed by regular tests. Slight to moderate increase may occur 6-12 months before clinical signs of relapse.
