Grail's largest randomized trial (NHS-Galleri) failed to meet its primary endpoint regarding the reduction of combined stage 3 and 4 cancer incidence. — Failure to meet a primary endpoint in a major clinical trial typically creates significant regulatory hurdles and undermines the core value proposition for payers and investors.
