information so we

Please respond to this letter by amending your registration
statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe our comments apply to your

Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4
Parties to the Business Combination
Tango, page 16
1. We note your response
to prior comment 5 and your statement that in vitro and in
vivo preclinical data
for USP1 "demonstrated potent anti-tumor activity and suggests this
molecule will have the
potential to be effective as a single agent in PARP-naive and
PARP-resistant cancers
with a BRCA1 mutation." Please revise this disclosure and similar
statements that imply
that your product candidates are effective or are likely to be
approved. You may
present objective data resulting from your preclinical testing without
concluding efficacy.
