Tango Therapeutics Inc (TNGX) Gagner

Tango Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company, which engages in discovering and delivering precision cancer medicines. The company is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts and currently employs 137 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2020-09-03. The firm's novel small molecules are designed to be selectively active in cancer cells with specific genetic alterations, killing those cancer cells while sparing normal cells. The firm is focused on clinical development of two methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP)-deleted selective PRMT5 inhibitors: vopimetostat (TNG462) for non-CNS cancers, both as a monotherapy and in combination with RAS inhibitors, and TNG456, brain-penetrant protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) inhibitor, for CNS cancers, including glioblastoma (GBM). Its TNG260 is a first-in-class Co-repressor of the Repressor Element-1 Silencing Transcription (CoREST) inhibitor, which in preclinical studies reversed the immune evasion effect of STK11 loss-of-function mutations.
