Brief Blog: AHRQ Releases Report on MCED Evidence to Date

 On May 14, 2025, AHRQ released a 140-page review of the field of Multi Cancer Early Detection tests.   The systematic review focused on 20 studies to date, 7 of which it found were higher quality.   They report only one study had enough assessment of harms; therefore, it was too early to do a risk-benefit calculation of harms.
