Why Tempus exists

Tempus sequences tumor tissue for both DNA and RNA. DNA analysis uncovers the genetic coding driving the cancer, including variants of interest that can be targeted for treatment, with whole exome data valuable if a personalized vaccine is being considered. RNA analysis surfaces transcriptome abnormalities that may further inform the treatment plan.
