Despite significant breakthroughs in the understanding, prevention, and treatment of cancer, the disease remains a major challenge, impacting millions of lives and straining healthcare systems. Boehringer Ingelheim is committed to changing this by advancing the discovery and development of new breakthrough treatments for people living with hard-to-treat cancers. With this new collaboration, Boehringer will have access to Tempus’ de-identified database containing molecular, clinical, and imaging data and its analytical platform, Lens. The aim is to explore data derived from patient cohorts to guide biomarker development and patient stratification, develop drug combination hypotheses, support novel target discovery efforts, and educate on patients’ healthcare journey.
“By combining internal, pre-clinical experimental data, with real-world data from Tempus on its AI-powered platform, we can profoundly deepen our understanding of cancer biology and accelerate our drug discovery and development efforts,” said Mark Paul Petronczki, Head of Oncology Research at Boehringer Ingelheim.
