For example, implicit or explicit statements concerning the following include or constitute forward-looking statements: Dr. Peters&#39;s statements in this press release and statements regarding: (i) the potential of the Company's PRMT5 molecules, as both standalone treatments and in combination with RAS(ON)-inhibitors, including our belief that vopimetostat has the potential to provide a paradigm-shifting treatment to patients with pancreatic and other cancers; (ii) expectations regarding the anticipated benefits of our molecules and the potential regulatory approval of vopimetostat; (iii) the anticipated impact of the management changes described herein; (iv) timing for disclosing initial, interim, updated, additional and final clinical trial results (including for combination studies), including expectations to present clinical updates for vopimetostat in combination with Revolution Medicine's RAS(ON) inhibitors in 2026. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Tango and its management, are inherently uncertain. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: the benefits of product candidates seen in preclinical tests and analyses may not be evident when tested in later preclinical studies or in clinical trials or when used in broader patient populations (if approved for commercial sale); Tango may not be able to commence its clinical trials when expected, may not be able to continue dosing, initiate dose escalation and/or dose expansion on anticipated timelines, and may not generate or report clinical trial results (including final, initial, interim, or updated clinical trial results or additional safety and efficacy data and the establishment of proof-of-mechanism and proof-of-concept) in the anticipated timeframe (or at all); future clinical trial data releases may differ materially from initial or interim data from our current and future clinical trials;  the expected benefits of our product candidates in patients as single agents and/or in combination may not be realized; government regulation may negatively impact Tango's business; inadequate funding for or disruptions at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or other government agencies may slow the time necessary for new drugs to be reviewed and/or approved or prevent these agencies from performing business functions on which the operation of our business may rely (which could negatively impact our business).
