We currently screen for 4 major cancers with guideline-backed tools. Yet ~70% of cancer deaths come from cancers without routine screening. That’s the gap MCED testing is trying to close. CancerGuard is a multi-cancer early detection (MCED) blood test developed by the team behind Cologuard®. It analyzes circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) plus protein biomarkers to detect cancer-associated signals across multiple organ systems. 🔍 What It Screens For CancerGuard evaluates signals associated with 50+ cancer types and subtypes, including: - Lung - Pancreatic - Hepatobiliary - Gastric & esophageal - Ovarian - Renal - Bladder - Head & neck - Select hematologic malignancies It is not intended to replace: - Mammography - Colonoscopy/FIT - Pap/HPV screening - LDCT lung screening in high-risk patients And it does not position itself as a primary screening tool for breast or prostate cancer. This is additive screening — not substitution. It has high specificity over all leading to minimal false positives. But negative results is not a rule out! 📊 Performance Characteristics (Development Data) Here’s the part you actually care about: - Overall sensitivity: ~64% across cancers detected in development studies - Specificity: ~97% - Stage I–II detection: ~1/3 of detected cancers Translation: Sensitivity varies by tumor type and stage (as expected). Performance is stronger in higher-stage disease and certain solid tumors. Specificity is high, which matters when you’re deploying this in asymptomatic populations. False positives are relatively low, but not negligible. This means workflow planning matters. 🧠 Clinical Positioning Intended population: - Age 50–84 - No active cancer within 3 years - Average risk or elevated concern patients - Used in conjunction with standard screening Cost: ~ $689 (cash-pay; HSA/FSA eligible) This is not currently a USPSTF-endorsed screening modality. 🏥 Practical Workflow Considerations Let’s be honest. The value of any screening test is not just sensitivity — it’s system integration.

Most DPC owners don’t have a lead problem…They have a “no simple way to collect leads” problem. If you’ve ever thought: - “I post, but nobody books.” - “People say they’re interested, then disappear.” - “My website feels like a brochure, not a funnel…” - Then you need one thing: ✅ a landing page + a lead magnet + an automated follow-up Not 17 funnels. Not paid ads. Just a basic lead capture system that works while you’re seeing patients. 🎁 What I’m giving you I’m dropping a plug-and-play lead magnet idea + copy framework you can use this week (even if your brain is already on fire). Pick ONE: 1. Patient-facing: “Is DPC Right for Me?” 1-page cheat sheet 2. Functional medicine: “Fatigue Lab Checklist” (simple + ethical) 3. Practice growth: “How DPC Saves Families $$$ (without insurance drama)” 4. Weight loss: “GLP-1 Basics + What to Ask Your Provider” 5. Women’s hormones: “Perimenopause Symptoms Nobody Warns You About” 🧠 The Simple Lead Magnet Copy Formula Use this exact structure: Headline: Get [result] without [pain] Bullets: 3–5 things they’ll learn CTA: “Comment ‘KIT’ and I’ll send you the step-by-step landing page build” ✅ Example : Click Here This is my own Functional Med Tool Kit This is my "Lead Magnet" to introduce Functional Medicine. Headline: Download my “Is DPC Right for You?” guide I have made this quick guide for you already in the classroom with step by step instructions on how to build your own. You they learn when they download the guide: - What DPC actually is (and what it’s not) - How pricing works (no surprises) - Who it’s best for - What questions to ask before joining - CTA: Comment “KIT” and I’ll send you the exact Kit landing page + automation steps What you get? Patient name Phone Number and email in return for their free guide 🔥 Want the step-by-step Kit tutorial with pictures? Comment KIT below and I’ll send you link to purchase the course. If you are already an active member of the course it is yours free inside the course.
