Dr. Jack Kavanaugh - A Phenomenal Being
A miraculous person that he is, Kavanaugh has set a perfect example
by portraying how to summit great peaks. Achieving success is one thing but
earning immense respect is overwhelming, and he has the possession of both. Yet
he never allowed anything to suppress his vision of shaping the picture of
mankind and making it a better one.
Dr. Jack Kavanaugh is
an accomplished person with great intellect. He graduated in Doctor of Dental
Surgery (D.D.S) from the University of California, Los Angeles. He began his
remarkable career as a successful dentist. He served his profession with utmost
sincerity and compassion for several years before he met with a skiing accident
in which he broke his neck and shattered his leg. Unfortunately, this prevented
him from practicing dentistry again.
Being a fighter, he greeted his fall and summoned the
courage and determined himself to rise again. After recovering from the
accident, he graduated in Bachelor’s in Arts (B.A) from the University of
California. He then completed his Masters in Business Administration from the
same university.
In 2008, he founded ZetaRX in partnership with The City of
Hope and others with the idea of making non-chemo and non-radiation treatment
for cancer universally available. Dr. Kavanaugh modeled his idea into reality
by incorporating T-Cell Car technology into cancer therapeutics. According to
reports, 88% of the terminal patients showed complete remission through T-Cell
Car technology.
Before the application of this technology, it attracted very
less attention, but now many researchers boast about it being the most exciting
advancement in cancer therapeutics. ZetaRX was acquired by Juno Therapeutics in
2013, which continued Dr. Kavanaugh’s work and witnessed the biggest rise in
biotech history ($145 Million). Dr. Kavanaugh who previously served as Founder, Chairman,
and CEO of ZetaRX was entitled with the responsibility of Chairman and
Executive Chairman at Arrogene, Inc.
In 2014, he co-founded Novonco Therapeutics, Inc., in
alliance with Dr. Larry Overman and Dr. David Horne. The company stresses on
discovering distinctive approaches to cancer therapeutics.
Dr. Kavanaugh and his wife, Leslie are supporting many
charity organizations and NGO’s including The City of Hope which is one of only
41 Comprehensive Cancer Centers in the United States which are authorized by
the National Cancer Institute.
Humanity is the biggest blessing and being able to work for
its improvement acts as a driving force that has lead Dr. Jack Kavanaugh to all his accomplishments.
