Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
Tempus AI says ALERT trial met endpoint; ECN alerts beat usual care and interventions.
TEM saw alerts drive 40% more valve procedures and 27% more heart team evaluations within 90 days.
TEM trial covered 765 clinicians and 2,016 echos; device-agnostic EHR alerts target undertreatment gaps.
Tempus AI, Inc. (TEM - Free Report) recently presented results from the ALERT (addressing undertreatment and health equity in aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation using an integrated ehr platform) trial at the American College of Cardiology’s 75th Annual Scientific Session & Expo. The study was conducted in collaboration with Medtronic (MDT - Free Report) .
The study demonstrated that automated electronic clinician notifications (ECNs) integrated into the electronic health record (EHR) significantly improve the timely evaluation and treatment of patients with significant aortic stenosis (AS) and mitral regurgitation (MR).
TEM Stock’s Likely Trend Following the News
Since the announcement, TEM shares have surged 4%, closing yesterday’s session at $47.03.
Tempus continues to expand its leadership in precision medicine through a series of impactful research initiatives and clinical validations. Throughout 2025 and early 2026, the company reported several key studies highlighting the power of its AI-driven diagnostics to improve cancer treatment decisions. We expect the news to further boost MDT stock price in the upcoming days.
Tempus has a market capitalization of $8.08 billion at present. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2026 earnings per share (EPS) implies growth of 44.3%, outperforming the industry’s 14.7% growth.
Industry Prospects & Significance of ALERT Trial
According to Orion Market Research report, the valvular heart disease market is projected to reach $64.5 billion by 2035, at a CAGR of 11.4% during 2025-2035. Valvular heart disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, though it remains frequently undertreated.
For patients with untreated symptomatic severe AS, mortality approaches 50% within just two years. Similarly, untreated severe MR carries a median survival of only five years. The ALERT trial determines if automated, AI-driven alerts could bridge this critical gap in care delivery. By leveraging the Tempus Next platform, the trial enabled real-time detection of significant disease and automatically delivered site-specific, guideline-based care notifications directly to providers.
Beyond clinical efficiency, a central objective of the ALERT trial was to confront the persistent disparities that leave patients at higher risk of being undertreated. These findings suggest that EHR-integrated clinical decision support can serve as a powerful, scalable, and standardized approach to care delivery, helping ensure that high-risk findings receive timely action regardless of a patient’s demographics or care setting.
About TEM’s ALERT Trial Result
The ALERT trial included 765 clinicians and 2016 echocardiograms across five health systems and 35 hospitals in the United States. The study met its primary endpoint, demonstrating that automated ECN alerts were superior to usual care in a win ratio analysis. This means that patients in the alert group were 27% more likely to be evaluated by the multidisciplinary heart team or receive a valve intervention than those in the usual care group.

By delivering actionable data directly to providers, the system facilitated a 40% relative increase in life-saving valve procedures and a 27% increase in multidisciplinary heart team evaluations within just 90 days. These alerts effectively reduced clinical inertia, prompting earlier specialist referrals and ensuring patients received interventions within established benchmarks for timely care.
While the ALERT trial was conducted in collaboration with Medtronic, the automated clinician notifications were designed to be device-agnostic to promote standardized care delivery, without requiring providers to use specific Medtronic devices for recommended evaluations or interventions.
TEM’s Another Development
Tempus recently entered into a strategic collaboration with Daiichi Sankyo to accelerate the clinical development and differentiation of an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) program in oncology.
