JUST AS PAST RESEARCH SUPPORT IS CURING CHILDREN TODAY, THE INVESTMENTS WE MAKE NOW ARE HELPING PHYSICIANS AND RESEARCHERS MAKE MORE IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES.THIS PAST YEAR, CCRF-FUNDED RESEARCH PROJECTS HAVE ADVANCED UNDERSTANDING AND TREATMENT OF MANY TYPES OF CHILDHOOD CANCER INCLUDING LEUKEMIA, BRAIN TUMORS AND SARCOMAS. IN ADDITION, WE'VE HELPED LAUNCH A COMPREHENSIVE INTEGRATIVE THERAPIES PROGRAM FOR PATIENTS UNDERGOING A BLOOD OR MARROW TRANSPLANT (BMT). PROGRESS IN THESE AREAS IS LEADING TO NEW CLINICAL TRIALS AND OPTIONS FOR PATIENTS WHO MAY HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER TREATMENT PROTOCOLS. HERE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE PAST YEAR OF RESEARCH:CCRF SUPPORT HAS HELPED RESEARCHERS PREPARE FOR THE CLINICAL TRIAL OF ENGINEERING T CELLS THAT CAN BE DESIGNED TO EFFECTIVELY KILL CANCER CELLS. SCIENTISTS HAVE FOUND THAT CART-19 CELLS ARE EXTRAORDINARILY EFFECTIVE IN ERADICATING LEUKEMIA AND LYMPHOMA CELLS, RESULTING IN LONG REMISSIONS, IF NOT CURE, AND IN SOME PATIENTS WHO OTHERWISE FAIL ALL CHEMOTHERAPY. HOWEVER, THERE ARE SOME LIMITATIONS AND RESEARCHERS ARE STUDYING HOW TO REDUCE THOSE RISKS. IN ADDITION, THE TEAM HOPES TO MAKE THIS TREATMENT APPROACH MORE COST EFFECTIVE BY DEVELOPING AN "OFF THE SHELF" GENERIC PRODUCT INSTEAD OF CREATING PATIENT-SPECIFIC CART-19 CELLS.CCRF HAS ALSO FUNDED RESEARCH THAT HELPS SCIENTISTS DELIVER DRUGS TO LEUKEMIA PATIENTS IN A TARGETED WAY THAT FOCUSES ON THE CANCER CELLS, ONLY RELEASING DRUGS TO THOSE CELLS, AND DOES NOT HARM NORMAL CELLS. THIS APPROACH HAS PROVEN SUCCESSFUL IN MOUSE MODELS AND THE RESEARCH TEAM IS NOW LOOKING AT HOW THIS CAN WORK FOR OTHER TYPES OF CHILDHOOD CANCERS. EPIDEMIOLOGY RESEARCHERS HAVE ALSO DISCOVERED INDICATIONS THAT POINT TO HIGHER RISK OF ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA (ALL). FIRST, THERE IS STRONG EVIDENCE THAT ALL IS INITIATED IN UTERO. SCIENTISTS ARE NOW STUDYING THE PREVALENCE OF THE GENE FUSION THEY BELIEVE CAUSES THIS AND THAT UNDERSTANDING COULD LEAD TO EARLY SCREENING AND/OR DETECTION OF ALL WHICH IMPROVES CHANCES OF SURVIVAL. ALSO, RESEARCHERS HAVE FOUND THAT BABIES BORN BY PRE-LABOR CESAREAN DELIVERY HAVE A 23% INCREASED RISK FOR ALL. IN THE STUDY OF BRAIN TUMORS, RESEARCHERS HAVE IDENTIFIED A MOLECULE CALLED CD200 THAT HINDERS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED BRAIN TUMOR VACCINES. THEY ALSO BELIEVE THIS MOLECULE HELPS OTHER CANCERS LIKE MELANOMA AND BREAST CANCER HIDE FROM THE IMMUNE SYSTEM. CCRF IS FUNDING RESEARCH THAT HELPS SCIENTISTS STOP CD200 AND DEVELOP AN ANTIBODY THAT ATTACHES TO CANCER CELLS TO KEEP THEM FROM GROWING FASTER. RESEARCHERS EXPECT TO MOVE THEIR WORK ON A CD200 INHIBITOR TO HUMAN CLINICAL TRIAL BY END OF CALENDAR YEAR 2016.WITH SARCOMAS, RESEARCHERS ARE STUDYING WAYS TO TREAT CHILDREN WHO HAVE RELAPSED, AS TODAY'S MEDICINE OFFERS FEW, IF ANY OPTIONS. SCIENTISTS DISCOVERED FOUND A DRUG COMPOUND THAT HAS BEEN EFFECTIVE IN MOUSE MODELS AND PET DOGS WITH SARCOMAS, LEADING TO SIGNIFICANT IMPROVED SURVIVAL RATES FOR THOSE DOGS. THE COMPOUNDS ARE TARGETED IMMUNE TOXINS THAT RECOGNIZE CANCER CELLS TO DESTROY THEM. THESE DRUGS ARE MADE UP OF A GROWTH FACTOR-A SUBSTANCE THAT STIMULATES THE GROWTH OF CELLS AND TUMORS NEEDED TO SURVIVE-ALONG WITH A TOXIN OR A POISON. AS THE GROWTH FACTOR BINDS TO THE CANCER CELL, IT TAKES THE TOXIN ALONG WITH IT, SELECTIVELY KILLING THE CANCER. RESEARCHERS ARE NOW TRANSLATING THIS FINDING TO AN OPTION FOR HUMAN PATIENTS. ADDITIONALLY, THANKS TO CCRF SEED GRANTS, OSTEOSARCOMA RESEARCHERS HAVE LEVERAGE THEIR INITIAL FINDINGS TO MULTIPLE FEDERAL GRANTS FOR CONTINUED STUDY AND ARE MOVING TWO NEW THERAPIES TO CLINICAL TRIAL.CCRF ALSO PROVIDED GRANTS TO NINE HOSPITALS TO CONDUCT EARLY PHASE RESEARCH AND CLINICAL TRIALS FOR CHILDREN WITH CANCER. ALL HOSPITALS ARE MEMBERS OF THE CHILDREN'S ONCOLOGY GROUP PHASE I & PILOT CONSORTIUM, WHICH WAS FORMED IN 2002 TO ENSURE MORE RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF NEW THERAPIES FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER PATIENTS. THE GRANTS HELP DOCTORS AND RESEARCHERS OPEN UP MORE CLINICAL TRIALS IN THEIR AREAS AND ENROLL MORE PATIENTS IN THEIR TRIALS. BY INCREASING THEIR CAPACITY, THEY'RE IMPROVING THE CHANCES FOR SURVIVAL AND QUALITY OF LIFE FOR MORE CHILDREN WITH CANCER.IN ADDITION TO SPECIFIC RESEARCH PROJECTS, CCRF ALSO FUNDS SIX ENDOWED CHAIRS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA, PROVIDING RESEARCHERS WITH A CONSISTENT STREAM OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO KEEP RESEARCH MOVING FORWARD. WE ALSO FUND AN EMERGING SCIENTIST PROGRAM, PROVIDING SEED MONEY TO SUPPORT EARLY STAGE RESEARCH THAT PAVES THE WAY FOR LARGER, FEDERALLY FUNDED GRANTS. THIS ADDRESSES THE CURRENT TREND THAT IS MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR YOUNGER RESEARCHERS TO RECEIVE THE FEDERAL GRANTS NECESSARY TO ADVANCE THEIR WORK. 2712659 321252 0 EDUCATION AND AWARENESS PROGRAM:PROVIDING EDUCATION AND RAISING AWARENESS ABOUT CHILDHOOD CANCER ARE KEY ELEMENTS OF CHILDREN'S CANCER RESEARCH FUND'S MISSION. OUR GOAL IS TO SHARE INFORMATION THAT INSPIRES ADVOCACY, COLLABORATION AND, ULTIMATELY, CURES FOR CANCER. WE ARE PROUD TO SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING EDUCATION AND AWARENESS INITIATIVES THAT REACH MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, INCLUDING CHILDHOOD CANCER FAMILIES, DOCTORS, RESEARCHERS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC.RESEARCH NEWS, PATIENT STORIES, VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES AND MORE ARE COMMUNICATED VIA OUR WEBSITE, BLOG, EMAILS, SOCIAL MEDIA ACTIVITIES, NEWSLETTER, MAILINGS AND EVENTS SUCH AS THE KS95 FOR KIDS RADIOTHON AND GREAT CYCLE CHALLENGE USA. EDUCATION AND AWARENESS, THROUGH PRO-BONO ADVERTISEMENTS ARE MADE POSSIBLE THANKS TO SUPPORT FROM MNI TARGETED MEDIA AND MEDIA SERVICES ADVERTISING. LAST YEAR, WE RECEIVED OVER 4.2 MILLION IMPRESSIONS AS A RESULT OF THESE ADVERTISEMENTS.THE CANCER SURVIVORSHIP CONFERENCE, AN ANNUAL EVENT THAT PROVIDES VALUABLE INFORMATION TO CANCER SURVIVORS AND THEIR CARETAKERSON FACEBOOK, OUR MISSION WAS SHARED WITH MORE THAN 62,146 FANS THIS FISCAL YEAR. EACH FAN HAS AN AVERAGE OF 156 FRIENDS, MEANING OUR MESSAGE COULD HAVE REACHED A POPULATION LARGER THAN THAT OF NEW YORK CITY. THE MARK E. NESBIT LECTURESHIP IN PEDIATRIC ONCOLOGY AND THE NORMA K.C. RAMSAY, MD, DISTINGUISHED VISITING PROFESSOR LECTURESHIP SERIES BRING NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED CHILDHOOD CANCER EXPERTS TO THE TWIN CITIES TO SPEAK ON CURRENT CLINICAL AND RESEARCH ISSUES.

LAST YEAR, SEVEN FELLOWS WERE PART OF THE PROGRAM. 408967 52158 0 PATIENT AND FAMILY SERVICES PROGRAM:CHILDHOOD CANCER PATIENTS AND FAMILIES OFTEN HAVE CARE NEEDS THAT EXTEND BEYOND MEDICAL TREATMENT. EMOTIONAL SUPPORT, AN ENGAGED COMMUNITY AND ASSISTANCE WITH THE NEEDS OF EVERYDAY LIFE ARE JUST A FEW RESOURCES THAT HELP SUPPORT INDIVIDUALS ACTIVELY BATTLING CANCER. CHILDREN'S CANCER RESEARCH FUND PROVIDES FUNDING AND ACCESS TO A VARIETY OF PROGRAMS THAT HELP FAMILIES CONNECT TO IMPORTANT RESOURCES TO IMPROVE THEIR LIVES IN THE FACE OF DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES BOTH DURING AND AFTER TREATMENT. INTEGRATIVE THERAPIESCCRF FUNDS HAVE HELPED LAUNCH AND GROW AN INTEGRATIVE THERAPIES PROGRAM FOR PATIENTS WHO HAVE HAD A BMT. IN CONJUNCTION WITH A CHILD OR TEEN'S MEDICAL PLAN, INTEGRATIVE THERAPIES HELP ADDRESS A PATIENT'S WELL-BEING BEYOND BASIC TREATMENT, WORKING TO ALLEVIATE PAIN AND EMOTIONAL EXHAUSTION. THE INTEGRATIVE THERAPY TEAM USES AROMATHERAPY, GUIDED IMAGERY, MASSAGE THERAPY, MUSIC THERAPY AND OTHER TECHNIQUES TO FILL THE GAPS WHERE PILLS, NEEDLES AND INJECTIONS CAN'T HELP. THROUGH INTEGRATIVE THERAPY, THE TEAM TEACHES PATIENTS, STAFF AND CAREGIVERS HOW TO HANDLE VARIOUS KINDS OF SUFFERING FROM TREATMENT. APPLICATIONS COULD INCLUDE ANYTHING FROM SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT TO SPIRITUAL GROWTH, HELPING PATIENTS CULTIVATE RESILIENCY AND DEVELOP COPING SKILLS TO HANDLE THE PSYCHOLOGICAL REACTIONS WHICH ACCOMPANY CANCER DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT AND LIFE AFTERWARD.CARE PARTNERS CARE PARTNERS VOLUNTEERS PROVIDE NONMEDICAL SUPPORT TO FAMILIES OF PEDIATRIC HEMATOLOGY/ONCOLOGY AND BLOOD OR MARROW TRANSPLANT PATIENTS RECEIVING CARE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA MASONIC CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL.
