Tempus's tumour-and-normal gene panel, FDA-approved in 2023 as a companion test for EGFR antibodies in bowel cancer.
The FDA approved Tempus xT CDx in 2023 as a 648-gene tumour-normal panel with a companion diagnostic claim for KRAS and NRAS wild-type colorectal cancer (cetuximab and panitumumab eligibility) and with tumour-profiling claims across solid tumours. The matched-normal design distinguishes inherited variants from tumour-acquired ones and reduces false positives. Tempus pairs the test with its multimodal database and trial-matching software, which is the company's commercial thesis: the test is the entry point to data.
