| Desc | RESEARCH AND GRANT PROGRAMFARA AWARDED OVER $6 MILLION IN RESEARCH FUNDING IN 2019. IN 2019, 38 LETTERS OF INTENT WERE SUBMITTED TO FARA AND 24 OF THESE WERE SELECTED FOR SUBMISSION OF A FULL GRANT APPLICATION. AFTER PEER REVIEW, 15 NEW GRANTS WERE FUNDED, WHILE 10 GRANTS APPROVED IN PREVIOUS YEARS RECEIVED CONTINUED FUNDING. FIVE OF THE NEW GRANTS WERE AWARDED TO INVESTIGATORS WHO HAD NOT PREVIOUSLY RECEIVED FARA FUNDING, INCLUDING 2 JUNIOR INVESTIGATORS. CURRENTLY, RESEARCHERS IN 7 COUNTRIES ARE RECEIVING FUNDING FROM THE FARA RESEARCH GRANT PROGRAM. FARA ALSO PROVIDES ONGOING SUPPORT FOR THE COLLABORATIVE CLINICAL RESEARCH NETWORK IN FA (CCRN), THE FA CENTER OF EXCELLENCE, BIOMARKER DEVELOPMENT CONSORTIA AND CLINICAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE TO FACILITATE CLINICAL TRIALS. ALL OF THESE RESEARCH PROJECTS ADVANCE FA RESEARCH DEEPENING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF DISEASE MECHANISM, PATHOLOGY, AND PROGRESSION AND DISCOVERY OF INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO THERAPY. SEVERAL OF THESE GRANTS WERE CO-FUNDED WITH OUR FA ADVOCACY GROUP PARTNERS; THIS COLLABORATIVE APPROACH BOTH INCREASES THE NUMBER OF AVAILABLE RESEARCH DOLLARS AND HELPS TO MINIMIZE DUPLICATION OF EFFORT.FRIEDREICH'S ATAXIA CENTER OF EXCELLENCE, PHILADELPHIA PATHE FA CENTER OF EXCELLENCE (COE) IS A TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH AND CLINICAL CARE CENTER DEVOTED TO FRIEDREICH ATAXIA: EXPEDITING BASIC SCIENCE AND DRUG DISCOVERY FINDINGS TO NEW TREATMENTS AND DEDICATING RESOURCES TO CLINICAL RESEARCH AND CARE TO FURTHER UNDERSTAND THE DISEASE, INFORM DRUG DEVELOPMENT AND IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR INDIVIDUALS LIVING WITH FA. THE CENTER WAS ESTABLISHED IN MARCH 2014, WITH A COMMITMENT OF $3.25 MILLION (OVER 3 YEARS) TO PENN MEDICINE/ CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF PHILADELPHIA, PRESENTED BY FARA IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE HAMILTON AND FINNERAN FAMILIES. IN 2017, THAT COMMITMENT WAS RENEWED FOR AN ADDITIONAL THREE YEARS ($1,403,500 IN 2017, $1,225,500 IN 2018 AND $1,122,000 IN 2019). PROJECTS AND INVESTIGATORS BEING FUNDED INCLUDE DR. ROB WILSON- DRUG DISCOVERY, DR. DAVID LYNCH- TRANSLATIONAL AND CLINICAL NEUROSCIENCE RESEARCH, DR. IAN BLAIR- BIOMARKER DISCOVERY, DR. KIM LIN- CARDIAC RESEARCH AND DR. SHANA MCCORMACK- METABOLISM AND ENDOCRINOLOGY.THE COE ESTABLISHED RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE CONSISTING OF FOUR CORE AREAS- NEUROLOGY, CARDIAC, BIOMARKER AND DRUG DISCOVERY. THE CENTER NOT ONLY SUPPORTS WORK WITHIN THESE DISCIPLINES, BUT ALSO FOSTERS EFFICIENT COLLABORATION AND SYNERGY ACROSS THEM. IN ITS FIRST SIX YEARS, THE COE REACHED SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT RESEARCH MILESTONES WITH THE DISCOVERY OF POSSIBLE TREATMENT CANDIDATES, THE STUDY OF NEW BIOMARKERS TO MEASURE THE DISEASE, AND LAUNCH OF PROMISING NEUROLOGIC AND CARDIAC CLINICAL TRIALS AND STUDIES. OF NOTE, FA SHARES SIMILAR SYMPTOMS AND DISEASE MECHANISMS WITH OTHER DISEASES, BOTH RARE AND COMMON. RESEARCH INTO FA IS PROVIDING INSIGHTS AND ADVANCES IN OTHER DISEASES SUCH AS MITOCHONDRIAL DISEASES, MUSCULAR DYSTROPHIES, DIABETES, AND CARDIOMYOPATHY.

| Desc | EDUCATION, AWARENESS & OUTREACH PROGRAMSFA IS A RARE DISEASE; AFFECTING 1 IN 50,000 INDIVIDUALS. FARA IS DEDICATED TO ADVOCACY AND RAISING AWARENESS FOR FA. FARA HAS UTILIZED BOTH TRADITIONAL AND SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGIES TO BRING GREATER AWARENESS TO FA IN THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND TO ENGAGE AND EDUCATE THE FA COMMUNITY. FOR EXAMPLE, FARA CONDUCTED A SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN THAT ENCOURAGED COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION LEADING UP TO RARE DISEASE DAY AND FA AWARENESS DAY. FARA ALSO HOSTED A VIDEO INTERVIEW SERIES, WITH RESEARCHERS AT THE INTERNATIONAL ATAXIA RESEARCH CONFERENCE, TO EDUCATE AND INFORM THE COMMUNITY ABOUT THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN FA RESEARCH AND SOME OF THE RESULTS OF FUNDED GRANTS.THE FARA AMBASSADOR PROGRAM WHICH WAS LAUNCHED IN 2011 WITH >20 PARTICIPANTS HAD A YEAR OF CONTINUED GROWTH AND ACTIVITY IN 2019. THE PROGRAM NOW INCLUDES 75 PARTICIPANTS. THE MISSION OF THE FARA AMBASSADORS IS TO BE POSITIVE, SUPPORTIVE, PEER REPRESENTATIVES FOR THE FA COMMUNITY; ACTIVELY RAISING AWARENESS AND FUNDS FOR FARA.IN 2019, FARA FACILITATED FORMAL TRAINING FOR THE AMBASSADOR LEADERSHIP TEAM AND AMBASSADORS. THE FOCUS FOR THE TRAINING WAS UNDERSTANDING GENE THERAPIES (WHAT IT IS, HOW IT IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER THERAPIES, EXPLORING RISKS AND BENEFITS AND CURRENT STATUS OF DEVELOPMENT FOR FA). THE AMBASSADOR BLOG FEATURED POSTS SUCH AS MEET THE COMMUNITY INTERVIEWS WITH PEOPLE LIVING WITH FA. IN 2019, THEY ACHIEVED >45 POSTS WITH OVER 18,000 VIEWS. THE AMBASSADORS ALSO CONTINUED A CARD PROGRAM IN WHICH THEY DESIGNED CARDS TO SEND TO THE VARIOUS STAKEHOLDERS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO SAY THANK YOU OR TO OFFER ENCOURAGEMENT. THEY ARE AVERAGING ABOUT 22 CARDS PER MONTH. ANOTHER PROJECT FACILITATED BY THE AMBASSADOR GROUP ARE MONTHLY PEER WEBEX HANGOUT GROUPS FOR THE GREATER FA COMMUNITY TO ATTEND AND CONNECT WITH ONE ANOTHER ONLINE (ONE IS GEARED TO ADULTS, AND ONE IS FOR TEENS WITH FA). AMBASSADORS AND OTHER PATIENT ADVOCATES WERE INVOLVED WITH FA PANEL PRESENTATIONS AT PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES WITH ACTIVE FA DRUG OR GENE THERAPY DEVELOPMENT PIPELINES. EACH PANEL IS COMPRISED OF PATIENTS AT VARIOUS AGES AND STAGES OF PROGRESSION FOR A COMPREHENSIVE PICTURE OF LIFE WITH FA. FEEDBACK FROM PHARMACEUTICAL PARTNERS HAS BEEN POSITIVE, AS THE INTERACTION WITH PATIENTS ALLOWS RESEARCHERS TO TANGIBLY UNDERSTAND THE URGENCY FOR TREATMENTS AND A CURE. IN 2019, FARA WAS HOSTED FOR PATIENT PANELS AT SEVEN PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES PURSUING THERAPY FOR FA. FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT CUREFA.ORG/AMBASSADORS. | Desc |

| Desc | CLINICAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTUREIN ADDITION TO RESEARCH GRANTS, FARA FUNDS THE ONGOING DEVELOPMENT OF VITAL CLINICAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE. CLINICAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE REFERS TO THE RESOURCES NEEDED TO FACILITATE ANY TYPE OF RESEARCH, INCLUDING CLINICAL TRIALS THAT INVOLVE PATIENTS. THESE RESOURCES CAN INCLUDE THINGS LIKE: FRIEDREICH'S ATAXIA GLOBAL PATIENT REGISTRY: THE ONLY INTERNATIONAL FRIEDREICH ATAXIA PATIENT REGISTRY WITH MORE THAN 3500 INDIVIDUALS ENROLLED. THIS REGISTRY CAPTURES DEMOGRAPHIC AND CLINICAL INFORMATION ON INDIVIDUALS WITH FA AND IS USED TO RECRUIT INDIVIDUALS FOR CLINICAL TRIALS WORLDWIDE. IN 2019, THE PATIENT REGISTRY WAS USED TO RECRUIT FOR 3 CLINICAL TRIALS AND SEVERAL OTHER CLINICAL RESEARCH STUDIES. TO LEARN MORE, VISIT CUREFA.NET/REGISTRY. AT THE END OF 2019, FARA LAUNCHED AN UPGRADED PATIENT REGISTRY PLATFORM WITH PULSE INFOFRAME THAT HAS EXPANDED RESEARCH AND ANALYTICS CAPABILITIES AND WILL OFFER MULTIPLE LANGUAGES.COLLABORATIVE CLINICAL RESEARCH NETWORK IN FA (CCRN IN FA): THE CCRN IS AN INTERNATIONAL NETWORK OF 13 CLINICAL RESEARCH CENTERS THAT WORK TOGETHER TO ADVANCE TREATMENTS AND CLINICAL CARE FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH FRIEDREICH'S ATAXIA. THREE OF THOSE SITES WERE ADDED IN DENVER, CO, AUCKLAND, NZ, AND MONTREAL, CA, SUPPORTED BY FARA IN 2019. HAVING SUCH A NETWORK MEANS THAT THERE ARE TRAINED PHYSICIANS AND RESEARCH COORDINATORS READY TO DO CLINICAL RESEARCH STUDIES AND TRIALS. ALSO, THIS NETWORK IS BACKED BY A DATA COORDINATION CENTER THAT FACILITATES ALL ASPECTS OF DATA COLLECTION, DATABASE MANAGEMENT, AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF STUDY DATA. TO LEARN MORE AND TO RESEARCH PUBLICATIONS, VISIT CUREFA.ORG/NETWORK.HTMLNATURAL HISTORY STUDY: LONGITUDINAL DATA (USUALLY ABOUT 10 YEARS) ON INDIVIDUALS WITH A DISEASE THAT DESCRIBES AND QUANTIFIES THE PROGRESSION OF THE DISEASE ALONG WITH THE SYMPTOMS AND MANIFESTATIONS OF THE DISEASE. NATURAL HISTORY CAN SOMETIMES SERVE AS THE BASIS FROM WHICH MEASUREMENTS CAN BE MADE TO DETERMINE EFFECTS OF NEW TREATMENTS, DRUGS OR INTERVENTIONS.CLINICAL OUTCOME MEASURES: FUNCTIONAL PERFORMANCE TESTS (E.G., TIMED PEGBOARD OR WALK TESTS, VISION, HEARING OR SPEECH TESTS) THAT QUANTIFY HOW MUCH CHANGE TAKES PLACE IN A SPECIFIC AMOUNT OF TIME AND ARE USED IN CLINICAL TRIALS TO MEASURE WHETHER A DRUG IS ALTERING THE COURSE OF THE DISEASE.BIOMARKERS: ANYTHING THAT CAN BE USED AS AN INDICATOR OF A PARTICULAR DISEASE STATE - USUALLY PROTEINS, ENZYMES, GENETIC VARIANTS, IMAGING (MRI, CT OR PET SCANS). BIOMARKERS CAN BE USED TO ASSESS RISK OF DISEASE, DIAGNOSIS, OR OUTCOMES. USE OF BIOMARKERS IN DRUG DEVELOPMENT IS OF GREAT INTEREST BECAUSE BIOMARKERS CAN PROVIDE EVIDENCE OF BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY, POTENTIALLY DEMONSTRATING THERAPEUTIC BENEFIT MORE QUICKLY THAN TRADITIONAL OUTCOME MEASURES. BIOREPOSITORY: A REPOSITORY OR BANK OF STORED BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS SUCH AS BLOOD SAMPLES, DNA, ORGANS, AND TISSUES (SUCH AS SKIN, MUSCLE, HEART) THAT CAN BE USED FOR RESEARCH.THROUGH THE CCRN IN FA WE HAVE COLLECTED NATURAL HISTORY DATA (ONGOING) IN MORE THAN 1,100 INDIVIDUALS WITH FA, VALIDATED CLINICAL OUTCOME MEASURES AND THE FARS SCALE, STUDIED SPEECH, VISION AND HEARING, LAUNCHED BIOMARKER STUDIES, ESTABLISHED DNA AND RNA REPOSITORIES, AND PROVIDED MANY BLOOD SAMPLES TO RESEARCHERS AROUND THE WORLD. THE CCRN IN FA INVESTIGATORS HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN MULTIPLE CLINICAL TRIALS INCLUDING A FEW THAT WERE DESIGNED AND CONDUCTED SOLELY THROUGH NETWORK SITES. FARA CONTRIBUTED >$750,000 IN 2019 TO CLINICAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE IN DIRECT FUNDING TO THE CCRN IN FA CENTERS AND RELATED CLINICAL RESEARCH ACTIVITIES.CRITICAL PATH INSTITUTE DATA COLLABORATION PROJECTIN 2017, FARA INITIATED A PROJECT WITH CRITICAL PATH INSTITUTE'S (C-PATH) DATA COLLABORATION CENTER (DCC) TO DEVELOP AN AGGREGATED DATABASE OF CLINICAL DATA FOR FA. USE OF THIS DATABASE WILL PROMOTE COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH TO SUPPORT THE UNDERSTANDING OF NATURAL HISTORY, POTENTIAL BIOMARKERS, AND POTENTIAL CLINICAL ENDPOINTS FOR PATIENTS WITH FA, WHICH WILL HELP RESEARCHERS DEVELOP MORE EFFICIENT CLINICAL TRIAL PROTOCOLS TO TEST NEW THERAPIES MORE QUICKLY AND EFFECTIVELY. IN 2018, THE PROJECT ESTABLISHED AN INTEGRATED DATABASE OF CLINICAL DATA FOR FA THAT CAN BE SHARED AND UTILIZED BY EXISTING FA RESEARCHERS. IT ENLISTED COMPANIES THAT HAVE CARRIED OUT CLINICAL TRIALS IN FA TO OBTAIN CONTRIBUTIONS OF CLINICAL DATA, AS WELL AS SHARING NATURAL HISTORY DATA COLLECTED BY FARA'S COLLABORATIVE CLINICAL RESEARCH NETWORK.FOUR DE-IDENTIFIED DATASETS FROM PREVIOUS CLINICAL TRIALS AND FA-CLINICAL OUTCOME MEASURE DATASETS HAVE BEEN AGGREGATED INTO A SINGLE DATABASE IN A SCIENTIFICALLY RIGOROUS MANNER BY C-PATH'S DCC. IN 2019, THIS DATA WAS SHARED WITH >6 RESEARCH ORGANIZATIONS (ACADEMIC AND INDUSTRY) TO ASSIST IN DESIGNING CLINICAL TRIALS.ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT FARA'S PROGRAMS IN 2019 CAN BE ACCESSED VIA THE ANNUAL REPORT AT: CUREFA.ORG/FINANCIALS | Desc |
