The Pacific Meso Center is pleased and proud to be involved with the 2011 Master’s Cycling initiative, which now includes a new found focus on charitable endeavors.  With the 2011 streamlined masters cycling initiative, beginning this month, we will be featuring on this site an updated link to their monthly newsletter, keeping our audience apprised of upcoming news and events throughout the year.

Amgen is a leading human therapeutics company in the biotechnology industry. For more than 25 years, the company has tapped the power of scientific discovery and innovation to advance the practice of medicine.

Amgen pioneered the development of novel products based on advances in recombinant DNA and molecular biology and launched the biotechnology industry’s first blockbuster medicines. Today, as a Fortune 500 company serving millions of patients, Amgen continues to be an entrepreneurial, science-driven enterprise dedicated to helping people fight serious illness. 

Amgen sponsors a Masters level cycling program. In 2009, their team of twenty four riders produced 123 victories, 249 top 3’s, 455 top 10’s, 4 National and 3 World Titles.

As the team prepares for 2011, they are pleased to announce a major shift in focus, most notably the expansion of their charitable work. The upcoming season offers a new opportunity for the team to more fully engage with team sponsors with shared philanthropic vision.

The 2011 squad will be known as Breakaway-UBS, to align itself with Amgen’s Breakaway from Cancer® initiative. Breakaway from Cancer® was created by Amgen to increase awareness of the important resources available to people fighting cancer – from prevention to education, and from cancer care to advocacy and support.
