Foresite Labs incubates companies that will address some of our greatest unmet medical needs. Their experienced team of scientists, engineers, and operators believes that the tools of data science, when applied with scientific rigor, will greatly accelerate scientific discovery and the development of new products and services that benefit patients. Through its incubation platform, Foresite Labs is dismantling the barriers faced by visionary entrepreneurs and their companies as they seek to re-invent healthcare. Foresite Labs Values Truth over progression: We follow the science, pursuing ideas that are grounded in data and abandoning them when not supported by the evidence. Take good risks: Our culture values informed risk-taking: good decisions are celebrated even when they result in bad outcomes. Everyone feels safe to contribute ideas and to learn from failure. Single accountable person: The project team lead is accountable for all decisions and for maintaining transparency and information flow within the team; we trust the project teams. The Review Committee unlocks capital and sets directions. Simplicity and Focus: Companies die from indigestion, not starvation (Bill Hewlett) We will focus on a few ideas aggressively and minimize all other distractions. Everyone will have a few key goals that have measurable outcomes. Respect and Community: Our employees are our greatest asset; everyone invests in creating an environment of collaboration and respect. We support their careers and career development whether they stay, go to a Labs company, or end up somewhere else.
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.
