(NASDAQ: TNGX), a biotechnology company committed to discovering and delivering the next generation of precision cancer medicines, today announced that the company was added to the Russell 2000®, Russell 3000® and Russell Microcap® Indexes, effective after the U.S. market closed on June 24, 2022, as part of the 2022 Russell indexes annual reconstitution.

Membership in the U.S. all-cap Russell 3000® Index, which remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the large-cap Russell 1000® Index or small-cap Russell 2000® Index as well as the appropriate growth and value style indexes. Membership in the Russell Microcap® Index, which remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the appropriate growth and value style indexes.
