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.
Amlan International is the animal health business of Oil-Dri® Corporation of America, a leader in sorbent mineral technology. Amlan leverages Oil-Dri`s 80-plus years of mineral science expertise to develop proprietary, mineral-based feed additives that support optimal intestinal health while adding value for animal protein producers. The core of our feed additives is our natural mineral ingredient that contains high-capacity opal-CT lepispheres and undergoes proprietary thermal processing specifically tailored for each product. We also create synergistic blends of our mineral with other feed ingredients that further support normal gut function and digestive processes. Oil-Dri and the single-source mineral used in Amlan products are based in the USA, and because Amlan and Oil-Dri are vertically integrated, we control the quality, reliability, and safety of the mineral — from mine to feed bag. We do this by following sustainable mining practices and through the use of natural ingredients in our products. Our mineral-based feed additives meet the demands for cleaner food while reducing the inputs needed to raise production animals, helping to decrease the cost and environmental impact of poultry and livestock production. Leading integrators and producers worldwide trust our products to support animal intestinal health and add value to their operations. You can, too.
