Cancer screening outfit Grail said Friday that a software glitch at a third-party telemedicine vendor led to erroneous letters being sent to about 400 people warning that they may have developed cancer.
Headquartered in Menlo Park, Grail added that the notifications were in no way related to incorrect test results or the accuracy of its tests. More than half the people who got the letters had not yet had their blood drawn to be tested, according to the company. Grail Galleri is an early detection test that can screen for up to 50 different types of cancer from a single blood sample. It’s the only such test available to date.
