Biography sourced from the proxy statement filing.
David Hung, M.D. is our founder and has served as our President, Chief Executive Officer and member of our Board since inception (April 2018). Dr. Hung founded Medivation, Inc. in 2003, which developed oncology drugs Xtandi, which was taken from first in vitro laboratory experiment to FDA approval in seven years and approved in 60+ countries, and talazoparib (now marketed as Talzenna), a potentially best-in-class PARP inhibitor, and was sold to Pfizer Inc. in 2016 for $14.3 billion. Between Medivation and founding Nuvation Bio, Dr. Hung served for 10 months as Chief Executive Officer at Axovant Sciences before tendering his resignation. Prior to founding Medivation, he served as President and Chief Executive Officer of ProDuct Health, Inc., a medical device company founded in 1998 that developed, manufactured and commercialized a breast microcatheter for breast cancer risk assessment and which was acquired in 2001 for $168 million by Cytyc Corporation. Dr. Hung has served on the board of directors of NovoCure Ltd., a public medical device company, since May 2018. Dr. Hung also previously served on the boards of directors of Establishment Labs Hldgs, Arya Sciences Acquisition Corp III, and T Therapeutics. Dr. Hung received an A.B. in Biology from Harvard College and an M.D. from the University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine. He completed simultaneous clinical fellowships in hematology, oncology and transfusion medicine as well as two basic science research fellowships in molecular biology at the University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine. We believe that Dr. Hung is qualified to serve on our Board because of his deep knowledge of our company, history leading life sciences companies and his industry experience.
