Dr. Desai is the founder of Aadi Bioscience, a director on the Company’s board and served as President and CEO from 2011 through 2022. Prior to that, he served as President and CEO since 2011. He is the inventor of nab technology and the mTOR inhibitor nab-sirolimus (FYARRO) and helped guide the organization through the drug development process leading to approval of FYARRO, the first FDA approved therapy for advanced malignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa). The Company raised $155M concurrent with a public listing in August 2021 and since that time, has grown to more than 80 employees including the recruitment of a top-notch leadership team. He has helped to guide the organization through the inaugural commercialization of FYARRO for advanced malignant PEComa, and the launch of the PRECISION 1 tumor-agnostic trial targeting TSC1 and TSC2 inactivating alterations. Most recently, following completion of a $72.5 million financing in September 2022, the Company launched a new clinical collaboration exploring the potential of the combination of nab-sirolimus with a KRAS inhibitor in NSCLC and other cancers.
