Tempus AI agreed to acquire Personalis for $1.5 billion in a stock deal, gaining access to Personalis's ultrasensitive cancer DNA detection test, NeXT Personal. This technology supports a personalized mRNA cancer vaccine by Moderna and Merck, which recently showed positive Phase 3 trial results, validating Personalis's sequencing platform. The acquisition strengthens Tempus's position in the fast-growing minimal residual disease (MRD) market, with combined test volumes rising significantly. The deal is expected to close by late 2026 or early 2027, positioning Tempus as a leader in oncology diagnostics and data services.
