TESARO

TESARO is a privately held oncology-focused biopharmaceutical company whose passionate associates are dedicated to improving the lives of cancer patients by developing and providing safer and more effective therapeutics and supportive care products.

TESARO plans to develop one or more compounds for oncology indications, including the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors express an ALK fusion protein; recent clinical proof-of-concept has been demonstrated for ALK inhibition in this patient population. The Series B financing will fund further development of these programs and expansion of the pipeline.
