Tempus AI, Inc. (NASDAQ: TEM), a leader in using AI for precision medicine, has announced that four of its abstracts have been accepted for the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2024. The event will take place in Barcelona, Spain, from September 13-17, 2024.
“ESMO offers a prime opportunity to present our latest research and innovations to the global oncology community, encourage collaboration, and advance our mission of enhancing patient outcomes,” said Ezra Cohen, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Oncology at Tempus. “Our commitment at Tempus is to transform cancer care and research through AI and data, and this event is a valuable platform to demonstrate the impact of our approaches.”
At ESMO 2024, Tempus will feature its recent scientific and clinical research through one oral presentation and three poster presentations:
Oral Presentation (#CN13): Impact of AI Clinical Trial Program on Screening, Matching, and Enrollment of Patients Over 6 Months
Date & Time: Monday, September 16, 2024; 11:05-11:15 a.m. CEST
Location: Fira Barcelona Gran Via; Hall 7
Overview: In collaboration with Cleveland Clinic, Tempus’ TIME initiative improved patient screening and clinical trial matching, achieving over one consent per day for six months. AI-enhanced patient matching and trial activation are recommended for better clinical trial success.
Poster Presentation (#113P): Changes in Circulating Tumor Fraction and Actionable Variant Allele Frequencies with Clinical Outcomes in Advanced Patients Treated with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors
Date & Time: Sunday, September 15, 2024; 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. CEST
Location: Fira Barcelona Gran Via; Hall 6
Overview: This study used circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to monitor treatment response in advanced solid tumor patients on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The Tempus xM ctDNA assay identified molecular responders and non-responders, with molecular responders showing longer overall survival. The findings suggest ctDNA monitoring could be useful in assessing TKI therapy response beyond variant allele frequency alone.
Poster Presentation (#79P): Comprehensive Genomic Profiling Provides Access to Novel Matched Therapies in Advanced Lung Cancer Patients
Date & Time: Sunday, September 15, 2024; 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. CEST
Location: Fira Barcelona Gran Via; Hall 6
Overview: This study evaluated how guideline-recommended targeted therapy recommendations are implemented in advanced NSCLC patients. The findings indicate that comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) effectively guided treatment decisions, with adherence to recommendations even when therapies were included in guidelines post-CGP results.
Poster Presentation (#580P): Impact of RAS and BRAFV600E Mutations on Tumor Immune Microenvironment and Genomic Alterations in MSI/dMMR Colorectal Cancers
Date & Time: Monday, September 16, 2024; 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. CEST
Location: Fira Barcelona Gran Via; Hall 6
Overview: This study explored the effects of RAS and BRAF mutations on prognosis and treatment in MSI/dMMR colorectal cancers. It found that RAS-mutant tumors were less immunogenic and had a lower inflammatory profile compared to RAS wild-type or BRAF V600E tumors, suggesting a need for further validation.
