The AI Cancer Risk API enables screening for more than 20 cancer types using only data from a routine Complete Blood Count (CBC) blood test. No imaging, specialist consultation, or additional diagnostic testing is required. By analyzing standard CBC parameters, the API delivers AI-powered cancer risk assessments in under 50 milliseconds, making it ideal for health insurers, corporate wellness platforms, telehealth applications, laboratory systems, and healthcare providers seeking scalable cancer risk intelligence.
The API requires only 12 inputs: patient sex, age, and 10 standard CBC blood values. Each request generates structured risk scores, probabilities, and risk tiers across four independent cancer screening models. Depending on the patient's sex, the API evaluates either prostate cancer risk (for males) or breast cancer risk (for females), while also assessing lung cancer risk, colorectal cancer risk, and a comprehensive multi-cancer screening model known as the Ivy Health Alert.
The Ivy Health Alert is the broadest model available within the API. It detects generalized hematological patterns and blood-based abnormalities associated with a wide range of malignancies, including many cancers that currently lack routine population-wide early detection tests. The model screens for hematological cancers such as leukemia (AML, CLL, and ALL), lymphoma (Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin), multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndrome, polycythemia vera, and essential thrombocythemia. It also evaluates gastrointestinal cancers including colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, liver, and esophageal cancers; gynecological cancers such as ovarian, cervical, and uterine/endometrial cancers; urological cancers including prostate, bladder, and kidney cancers; as well as other major malignancies such as lung cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, and sarcomas.
All risk assessments are categorized into four standardized tiers based on NHANES population percentiles. High-risk results represent the top 10% of the population and may warrant priority clinical referral. Moderate-risk results correspond to the next 15% and suggest ensuring that recommended screenings are current. Average-risk results fall within the middle 25% of the population and align with standard preventive care recommendations. Low-risk results represent the bottom 50% and generally indicate routine monitoring.
The AI Cancer Risk API is designed for organizations that already collect CBC data and want to unlock additional clinical value from existing blood tests. Health insurers and third-party administrators can integrate cancer risk indicators into annual health assessments. Corporate wellness programs can provide meaningful cancer screening insights as part of employee health benefits. Telehealth platforms and consumer health applications can enhance CBC result interpretation with AI-generated cancer risk context. Laboratory information systems and electronic health record platforms can perform silent background screening on every CBC processed, while screening clinics can offer advanced cancer risk reports alongside standard blood panel services.
With a single blood test and a single API call, the AI Cancer Risk API provides rapid, scalable screening across more than 20 cancer types, transforming routine CBC data into actionable cancer risk intelligence.
The Cancer Risk Screen endpoint returns AI-powered cancer risk scores for prostate, breast, lung, colorectal cancers, and a multi-cancer alert. It provides structured risk tiers (High, Moderate, Average, Low) along with probabilities for each cancer type based on the submitted CBC parameters.
The key fields in the response include `screening_id`, `timestamp`, `sex`, `age`, `models_run`, `derived_ratios`, and `results`. The `results` field contains detailed information about each cancer type, including `cancer_type`, `display_name`, `risk_tier`, and `probability`.
The response data is organized in a JSON format. It includes a summary of the screening request and a list of results for each cancer type, detailing the risk tier and associated probability. This structure allows for easy parsing and integration into applications.
The endpoint accepts 12 parameters: `sex`, `age`, and 10 CBC blood values. Users must provide these parameters to receive cancer risk assessments. Each parameter must be formatted correctly to ensure accurate analysis.
Data accuracy is maintained through proprietary machine learning models trained on NHANES population data. Continuous model evaluation and updates ensure that the risk assessments reflect the latest research and clinical findings.
Typical use cases include health insurers adding cancer risk flags to health checks, corporate wellness programs integrating cancer screening into employee health benefits, and telehealth apps enhancing CBC result displays with AI-driven risk insights.
Users can utilize the returned data by interpreting the risk tiers and probabilities to inform clinical decisions, prioritize patient referrals, and enhance preventive care strategies. The structured format allows for easy integration into health management systems.
Quality checks include validation of input parameters, consistency checks against known clinical data, and ongoing performance monitoring of the AI models. This ensures reliable outputs and minimizes the risk of erroneous assessments.
To obtain your API key, first sign in to your account and navigate to the API you want to use. From the API's Pricing section, choose a plan and complete the subscription process. Once subscribed, return to the API page and you will see your API Access Key displayed at the top of the documentation page. You can use this key to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
The free trial lasts for 7 days and allows you to make up to 50 API requests.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes. If the API offers a free trial, you will see a "Free 7-Day Trial" option in its Pricing section. The trial lasts for 7 days and allows up to 50 API requests, enabling you to evaluate the API before subscribing to a paid plan.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
You can monitor your API usage through the response headers included with every request:
x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-used: Shows the total number of API requests you have used during the current billing period.
x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-remaining: Shows the number of API requests you have remaining for the current billing period.
Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. Simply go to the Pricing section of the API you're subscribed to and click the "Unsubscribe" button.
Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Once your subscription is canceled, access to the service will end immediately, regardless of any remaining API calls in your quota.
