Kevin Costner Fronts Campaign for New Blood Test That Detects Cancer Early

Irving, Texas – September 11, 2026 -- Caris Life Sciences has launched a national awareness campaign called "Math," featuring actor Kevin Costner, to promote Caris Detect, a multi-cancer early detection blood test now available across the United States.

The blood test screens for cancer signals before symptoms appear

Caris Detect combines ultra-deep Whole Genome Sequencing, Whole Transcriptome Sequencing, and artificial intelligence to scan the bloodstream for molecular signals associated with cancer. Unlike tests that check only a limited set of biomarkers, the company says its approach analyzes the entire genome and transcriptome for a broader molecular picture. The test is designed to complement, not replace, routine cancer screenings.
