Two hours spent, 30 bikes built and limitless opportunities for the adventures children around Roxbury and Dorchester will be able to undertake with their new wheels. At this year’s community service day, we proudly partnered with Project HOPE Boston to support their mission of empowering women and families up and out of poverty.

Targeting tumor suppressor loss to unmask vulnerabilities for the next generation of precision medicines.
关于我们
Tango Therapeutics is a biotechnology company discovering and developing novel medicines targeting cancer vulnerabilities to deliver transformational new therapies for patients. Tango was launched in 2017 with a $55 million Series A investment from Third Rock Ventures. The company has established a robust product engine that leverages advances in DNA sequencing and CRISPR-based target discovery to generate breakthrough medicines that have the potential to provide deeper, more sustained benefit than today’s targeted therapies, and extend the benefit of available immuno-oncology agents. Tango Therapeutics is focused on three areas of drug development, each in well-defined patient populations currently lacking effective treatment options, and each with hallmarks of cancer that have not been targeted yet. These include: loss of tumor suppressor gene function; multiple oncogenic drivers; and immune evasion. What fuels each of Tango’s programs is an increasingly sophisticated ability to utilize synthetic lethality - the interaction between two genes that causes cell death when both are inactivated. In cancer cells, one of these genes is inactivated by mutation; the other will be inactivated by a drug. This approach leaves normal cells largely unaffected, with the potential to greatly enhance anti-tumor efficacy and reduce associated toxicity. Tango’s success will be driven by its depth of understanding of the genetic subtypes of cancer, and corresponding insights into novel drug targets and combinations uniquely relevant to each subtype. By shaping discovery efforts in this way, Tango has the potential to reach the clinic quickly, and with a clear plan for identifying the patients most likely to benefit from each new treatment, an approach that could increase both speed and probability of success in translating novel target discoveries into transformational new medicines for patients.

Thanks to FogPharma for hosting our President and CEO, Barbara Weber, M.D., as part of their fireside series spotlighting women executives. A phenomenal effort to help further women in the life sciences!
We were honored to recently host Barbara Weber, MD for the first of a new series of fireside chats at our offices spotlighting women executives in life sciences. Dr. Weber is a member of our Board of Directors who has a long and accomplished career in oncology drug development, including in her current role as president and CEO of Tango Therapeutics. In our lively and intimate discussion, Dr. Weber shared reflections on her professional journey, along with her learnings on leadership, mentorship, and growth across all stages of a career. It was a thought-provoking and inspiring event — sincere thanks, Dr. Weber, for generously sharing your time and insights. #Learning #FiresideChat #Oncology

We kicked off the start of the school year with a back-to-school drive benefitting Catie's Closet, Inc, a Massachusetts-based organization that gives children in need life-changing access to clothing and basic necessities so they can thrive in school and in life. Fueled by a desire to give back – and also win! – associates competed by team for most supplies donated. The competition resulted in team shopping trips and boxes of supplies being donated.

During our recent “TangoTalk” session, the Tango Research Informatics team presented “Research Informatics 101.” Our monthly TangoTalks provide associates with the opportunity to attend educational sessions to understand the basics of topics ranging from regulatory affairs to clinical biomarkers. Led by experienced scientific software engineers, the Tango Research Informatics team connects our data generators with our data consumers. Through their efforts, they built a highly automated data system: the Tango Informatics Portal or TIP. This sophisticated data warehouse empowers our scientists to retrieve information fast and accurately to design our next potential precision cancer drug candidates. The team’s work is constantly evolving, now incorporating AI features to enable our scientists to become even more effective and efficient.?
