Tempus AI's stock surged 5.12% during Tuesday's intraday trading session following the release of significant new research findings.
The company presented real-world evidence linking KMT2C mutations to improved survival outcomes for patients on platinum-based chemotherapy for solid tumors. The findings, which were validated in an external cancer dataset, showed the strongest signal in colorectal cancer, positioning KMT2C as a potential biomarker to guide chemotherapy selection in gastrointestinal cancers.
Tempus indicated that follow-on laboratory work is underway to clarify the biological drivers, supporting potential clinical adoption and partner interest in biomarker-led treatment strategies. The research is scheduled for an oral presentation at the AACR Annual Meeting 2026 in San Diego.
