Bank chairman's $20.4 million donation paved the way for life-saving cancer treatment
eTradeWire News/10770171
American Momentum Bank Chairman and CEO Donald A. Adam's contribution to Moffitt Cancer Center sparked breakthroughs and FDA approval of melanoma treatment
COLLEGE STATION, Texas - eTradeWire -- In 2007, American Momentum Bank Chairman and CEO Donald A. Adam contributed $20.4 million to Moffitt Cancer Center to establish the Donald A. Adam Melanoma and Skin Cancer Center of Excellence. This year, thanks to groundbreaking research at Moffitt, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a new life-saving treatment for advanced melanoma.
Tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte, or TIL, therapy is a first-of-its-kind cellular therapy for solid tumors that uses a patient's own immune cells to fight their cancer. This new therapy gives hope to those who once thought there were no other treatment options.
"It is heartwarming and brings deep gratification to have a gift play such a significant role in providing scientists and physicians the necessary funding to effectively treat and, one day, cure a disease that takes the lives of so many diagnosed with melanoma," Adam said.
Former U.S. Sen. Connie Mack III approached Adam – who had successfully been treated for melanoma – for financial support of a melanoma research center. The initial request was for $5 million, but in the end, Adam contributed $20.4 million. The donation made history as the largest single gift Moffitt has ever received.
