| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | THE TRANSLATIONAL GENOMICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOUNDATION RAISES FUNDS FOR THE TRANSLATIONAL GENOMICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE ("TGEN"). THE PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF TGEN ARE LISTED BELOW: SUMMARY OF 2016 ACTIVITIES AS THE COST OF READING A HUMAN GENOME has dropped DRAMATICALLY - FROM MILLIONS IN THE MID 2000'S TO THE LOW THOUSANDS TODAY - our clinical TRIALS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF DR. VON HOFF, OUR PHYSICIAN-IN-CHIEF CONTINUE BREAKING NEW GROUND IN DEMONSTRATING HOW THIS INFORMATION CAN IMPROVE PATIENT CARE. AND WE CONTINUE TO PROVIDE A STRONG ECONOMIC BENEFIT TO ARIZONA - $174 MILLION ANNUALLY. OF NOTE, STAND UP TO CANCER NAMED DR. VON HOFF TO CO-LEAD AN INTERNATIONAL DREAM TEAM TO ADVANCE NEW TREATMENTS AGAINST PANCREATIC CANCER. THIS IS THE THIRD SU2C DREAM TEAM AWARD FOR TGEN, AND THE SECOND FOR DR. VON HOFF. BRAIN CANCER RESEARCH, FUNDED BY THE BEN & CATHERINE IVY FOUNDATION, PRODUCED SEVERAL NOTABLE ADVANCEMENTS IN THE FIELD OVER THE PAST YEAR, AND ESPECIALLY IN RECENT MONTHS. ONE TGEN STUDY SHOWED THAT A DRUG, PROPENTOFYLLINE, PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED FOR DEMENTIA, KNOCKS DOWN A PROTEIN THAT PROMOTES THE SPREAD OF THE BRAIN CANCER GLIOBLASTOMA, INCREASES SENSITIVITY TO A STANDARD CHEMOTHERAPY DRUG, AND INHIBITS GLIOBLASTOMA CELL INVASION. THIS NOW BECOMES A TARGET OF TREATMENT-FOCUSED RESEARCH. A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT PAPER, LED BY TGENS DR. MUHAMMED MURTAZA, SHOWED HOW MEASURING TUMOR DNA FLOATING FREE IN THE BLOOD CAN BE USED TO TRACK THE PROGRESS OF CANCER PATIENTS AND HELP DOCTORS MAKE CHOICES FOR TREATMENT. THE STUDY, PUBLISHED IN THE LEADING SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL "NATURE COMMUNICATIONS", FOLLOWED THE TREATMENT OF A WOMAN WITH BREAST CANCER FOR MORE THAN THREE YEARS, SHOWING HOW THIS METHOD PROVIDES A NON-INVASIVE AND MORE FREQUENT WAY TO TEST HOW THE PATIENT RESPONDED TO TREATMENT. WE EXPECT TO MAKE additional advances IN THE FIELD OF "LIQUID BIOPSIES," ESPECIALLY FOR EARLY DETECTION OF CANCER. 2016 ALSO MARKS THE 10TH YEAR OF THE HELIOS SCHOLARS AT TGEN PROGRAM, WHICH SINCE ITS START IN 2007 HAS GRADUATED NEARLY 400 BUDDING SCIENTISTS AND PHYSICIANS. MANY HAVE ESTABLISHED CAREERS IN ARIZONAS BIOSCIENCE FIELDS. THE PROGRAM IS SUSTAINED FOR THE NEXT 15 YEARS BY A $6.5 MILLION GRANT FROM THE HELIOS EDUCATION FOUNDATION. SEVERAL OF THE SCHOLARS HAVE BEEN HIRED, AND BLOSSOMED, HERE AT TGEN AND ARE NOW MENTORING HELIOS SCHOLARS THEMSELVES. TGEN CONTINUES TO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE. FROM NEW ADVANCED CANCER TREATMENTS, TO NOVEL STUDIES OF HOW DOGS CAN HELP INFORM HOW WE HELP HUMAN PATIENTS, TO A PENDING GLOBAL TEST FOR THE PATHOGENS THAT PLAGUE THE WORLDS HOSPITALS, TGEN REMAINS MATCHLESS IN A VARIETY OF WAYS FOR ITS ABILITY TO HARNESS THE POTENTIAL OF THE HUMAN GENOME FOR THE BENEFIT OF HUMANITY. TGEN NORTH IN FLAGSTAFF INITIATED A NEW STUDY OF VALLEY FEVER INVOLVING DOGS, WHICH ALSO ACQUIRE THIS DUST-BOUND FUNGAL PATHOGEN, ADDING TO THE ALREADY PROMISING WORK IN TGENS CANINE-CANCER AND CANINE-NEUROLOGICAL STUDIES. IN JUST TWO MONTHS, TGEN ASSISTANT PROFESSOR DR. BRIDGET BARKER HAS SIGNED UP MORE THAN A QUARTER OF THE 2,000 DOGS SHE PLANS FOR HER VALLEY FEVER PAWS REGISTRY, AND TESTING KITS ARE BEING READIED TO COLLECT GENETIC SPECIMENS. THROUGH OUR WORK WITH NORTHERN ARIZONA UNIVERSITY (NAU), WE RECENTLY RECEIVED PATENT PROTECTION FROM THE GOVERNMENT OF AUSTRALIA FOR OUR RAPID, ECONOMICAL AND HIGHLY ACCURATE TEST FOR ANTIBIOTIC-RESISTANT STRAINS OF STAPH INFECTIONS, SUCH AS MRSA. PATENT APPROVALS IN THE U.S., CANADA, JAPAN, BRAZIL, THE EUROPEAN UNION AND OTHERS ARE EXPECTED TO FOLLOW. FINALLY, TGENS ANNOUNCED AFFILIATION WITH CITY OF HOPE IN LATE 2016 HAS UNBOUNDED POTENTIAL TO ACCELERATE OUR RESEARCH ON MANY FRONTS, AND together - playing off each OTHERS COMPLEMENTARY STRENGTHS - WE SHOULD LOOK FORWARD TO MANY YEARS OF PROGRESSIVE RESEARCH AND BETTER PATIENT OUTCOMES. IN ADDITION, THE FOLLOWING OVERVIEW PROVIDES A SNAPSHOT OF RECENT PROGRESS ACROSS THE INSTITUTE, INCLUDING SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS, EDUCATION AND OUTREACH, MEDIA, AND COMMUNITY RECOGNITION. GRANT SUPPORT IN ADDITION TO PHILANTHROPIC DONATIONS AND RESEARCH CONTRACTS, GRANT FUNDING IS AN IMPORTANT FUNDING SOURCE FOR RESEARCH. IN 2016, TGEN INVESTIGATORS SUBMITTED 102 GRANTS TOTALING $80M.

OUTCOMES AND PROGRESS IN 2016, TGEN ADVANCED A SERIES OF INNOVATIVE RESEARCH INITIATIVES THAT YIELDED NUMEROUS SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES (A GOOD NUMBER WITH POTENTIAL CLINICAL APPLICATION), ESTABLISHED NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATIONS, AND LED NEW AND EXCITING CLINICAL TRIALS WITH PROMISING RESULTS. NOTABLE ARE: A STUDY FUNDED BY THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH, THE ARCS FOUNDATION ELLER SCHOLARSHIP, SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA FELLOWSHIP, AND THE BEN & CATHERINE IVY FOUNDATION ENABLED TGEN RESEARCHERS TO IDENTIFY A PROTEIN CALLED SGEF THAT PROMOTES THE SURVIVAL OF GLIOBLASTOMA TUMOR CELLS AND HELPS THE CANCER INVADE BRAIN TISSUE. THE FINDINGS SUGGEST THAT SGEF COULD BE A NEW CANDIDATE FOR DEVELOPMENT OF TARGETED THERAPEUTICS. the published results, "SGEF IS REGULATED VIA TWEAK/FN14/NF-?B SIGNALING AND PROMOTES SURVIVAL BY MODULATION OF THE DNA REPAIR RESPONSE TO TEMOZOLOMIDE," APPEARED IN MOLECULAR CANCER RESEARCH, A JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR CANCER RESEARCH. TGEN NORTH FACULTY, WORKING WITH INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATORS, DISCOVERED THE SOURCE OF A POTENTIAL DEADLY BLOOD INFECTION IN MORE THAN 50 SOUTH AMERICAN CANCER PATIENTS. USING ADVANCED GENOMIC SEQUENCING, THE INVESTIGATORS TRACED BACK A POTENTIALLY DEADLY AND THERAPY-RESISTANT FUNGUS, SAROCLADIUM KILIENSE, TO A TAINTED ANTI-NAUSEA MEDICATION GIVEN TO DOZENS OF CANCER PATIENTS IN CHILE AND COLOMBIA, ACCORDING TO A REPORT IN EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES, PUBLISHED BY THE U.S. CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION. |
| UNCOVERING THE GENETIC MAKEUP OF PATIENTS USING DNA SEQUENCING | HAS IN RECENT YEARS PROVIDED PHYSICIANS AND THEIR PATIENTS WITH A GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW BEST TO DIAGNOSE AND TREAT THE DISEASES THAT PLAGUE HUMANITY. THIS IS THE ESSENCE OF TGENS PRECISION MEDICINE EFFORTS. IN A review article - tRANSLATING RNA-SEQUENCING INTO CLINICAL DIAGNOSTIcs: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGEs - pUBLISHED IN NATURE REVIEWS GENETICS, TGEN SCIENTISTS HIGHLIGHTED THE MANY ADVANTAGES OF USING RNA-SEQUENCING IN THE DETECTION AND MANAGEMENT OF EVERYTHING FROM CANCER TO INFECTIOUS DISEASES, SUCH AS EBOLA AND THE RAPIDLY SPREADING ZIKA VIRUS. BUILDING ON THE INSIGHTS PROVIDED BY DNA PROFILING, THE ANALYSIS OF RNA PROVIDES AN EVEN MORE PRECISE LOOK AT HOW CELLS BEHAVE AND HOW MEDICINE CAN INTERVENE WHEN THINGS GO WRONG. IN EARLY MAY, STAND UP TO CANCER SELECTED TGENS DR. MUHAMMED MURTAZA AND UCLAS DR. ANTONI RIBAS AS RECIPIENTS OF A $200,000 SU2C PHILLIP A. SHARP INNOVATION IN COLLABORATION AWARD, NAMED FOR THE NOBEL LAUREATE AND CHAIR OF SU2CS SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY COMMITTEE. THE AWARD SUPPORTS OPPORTUNITIES FOR SU2C SCIENTISTS FROM DIFFERENT TEAMS TO EXPLORE INNOVATIVE COLLABORATIONS TO ACCELERATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW CANCER TREATMENTS. ONE OF FIVE AWARDS TOTALING $1 MILLION, THE AWARD TO DRS. MURTAZA AND RIBAS, SUPPORTS A COLLABORATION TO INVESTIGATE WHETHER ITS POSSIBLE TO PREDICT PATIENT RESPONSE TO IMMUNOTHERAPY BY STUDYING THE MAKEUP OF THEIR MICROBIOMES IN BLOOD SAMPLES. DR. MURTAZA IS A MEMBER OF THE SU2C-MELANOMA RESEARCH ALLIANCE (MRA) MELANOMA DREAM TEAM, CO-LED BY TGENS DR. JEFFREY TRENT AND YALES DR. PAT LORUSSO. ANTIBIOTIC-RESISTANT INFECTIONS SHOULD BE EASIER TO DETECT, AND HOSPITALS COULD BECOME SAFER, THANKS TO A TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPED BY TGEN AND NORTHERN ARIZONA UNIVERSITY (NAU), AND PROTECTED UNDER A PATENT ISSUED BY AUSTRALIA. WE EXPECT SIMILAR PATENT APPROVALS IN THE U.S., CANADA, EUROPEAN UNION, JAPAN, BRAZIL AND OTHER NATIONS for this "superbug" test developed by TGEN AND NAU, AND LICENSED TO DXNA LLC. THIS RAPID, 1-HOUR TEST WILL PRECISELY IDENTIFY A FAMILY OF ANTIBIOTIC-RESISTANT STAPH INFECTIONS BROADLY REFERRED TO AS MRSA. A STUDY DETAILING HOW BLOCKING NERVE GROWTH FACTOR KEEPS PANCREATIC CANCER CELLS FROM INVADING SURROUNDING NERVES MAY LEAD TO POTENTIAL DRUG TARGETS TO REDUCE PAIN IN PANCREATIC CANCER PATIENTS. TGEN RESEARCHERS HAVE FOUND THAT THE NERVE GROWTH FACTOR (NGF), A NEUROTROPHIC FACTOR, AND ITS RECEPTOR TRKA ARE ASSOCIATED WITH PERINEURAL INVASION (PNI), WHICH IS THE ABILITY OF PANCREATIC CANCER CELLS TO INVADE SURROUNDING NERVES. BLOCKING THE NGF SIGNALING THROUGH INHIBITORS OF NGF AND TRKA REDUCES THE POTENTIAL OF PANCREATIC CANCER CELLS TO MIGRATE TOWARDS THE SURROUNDING NERVES. THE STUDY RESULTS APPEARED IN PLOS ONE. SURVIVAL FOR PATIENTS WITH GLIOBLASTOMA, AN AGGRESSIVE AND DEADLY BRAIN CANCER, COULD BE DETERMINED BY THE COMPLEXITY OF THEIR TUMOR. THE FINDINGS FROM A TGEN-LED STUDY SUGGEST - TO THE RESEARCHERS SURPRISE - THAT THE SURVIVAL OF THOSE PATIENTS WHOSE CANCER CELLS EXHIBIT A COMPLEX GENOMIC LANDSCAPE ON AVERAGE EXCEEDED THOSE PATIENTS WITH A LESS COMPLEX TUMOR STRUCTURE. THE PUBLISHED RESULTS APPEARED IN THE JOURNAL NEURO-ONCOLOGY. THE RESEARCHERS FOUND THAT STANDARD-OF-CARE WORKED BEST FOR PATIENTS WITH COMPLEX, THOUGH FRAGILE, TUMOR GENOMES, DEFINED AS THOSE WITH MORE ABNORMAL GENOMIC EVENTS, SUCH AS MUTATIONS, REARRANGEMENTS, OR AMPLIFICATIONS. THE MORE ABNORMAL THE TUMOR GENOME, THE MORE LIKELY THE THERAPY WAS TO IMPROVE PATIENT SURVIVAL. CONVERSELY, THOSE PATIENTS WITH SIMPLE, BUT ROBUST, CANCER GENOMES HAD SHORTER SURVIVAL. THIS WAS THE FIRST-EVER GENOMIC STUDY THAT COMPREHENSIVELY EXAMINED GBM OUTLIERS IN THE SURVIVAL SPECTRUM. CLINICAL TRIALS THE VIRGINIA G. PIPER CANCER CENTER (VGPCC) CLINICAL TRIALS PROGRAM AT HONORHEALTH (FORMERLY SCOTTSDALE HEALTHCARE) PROVIDES A DIRECT CLINICAL RESEARCH SITE FOR TGEN. TGEN PHYSICIAN-IN-CHIEF, DANIEL VON HOFF, M.D., F.A.C.P., SERVES AS CHIEF SCIENTIFIC OFFICER. PROGRAM CLINICIANS FOCUS ON CLINICAL TRIALS WITH TARGETED AGENTS AND GENOMICS-BASED INDIVIDUALIZED THERAPY. THEIR INITIAL FOCUS ON CANCER ALLOWS THE UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR TGEN TO TRANSITION ITS LABORATORY-BASED RESEARCH TO PATIENT CARE CENTERED ON INDIVIDUALIZED THERAPY. PROGRAM STAFF ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON PHASE I CLINICAL TRIALS. CLINICALLY, WE CONTINUE TO LAUNCH INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS THAT EXPAND THE BOUNDARIES OF SCIENCE AND MEDICINE. CURRENT INITIATIVES INCLUDE: 1. MULTIPLE CLINICAL TRIALS UNDERWAY TO INVESTIGATE NEW CHEMICAL AGENTS FOR A VARIETY OF TUMOR TYPES IN DIFFERENT CANCERS. 2. INCORPORATION OF MODERN TOOLS TO IDENTIFY PATIENTS GENOMIC CHARACTERISTICS THAT COULD LEAD TO A MORE TARGETED APPROACH. PATENTS AND LICENSES DURING 2016, TGEN WAS ISSUED 16 PATENTS AND FILED 35 PATENT APPLICATIONS ON TGEN-GENERATED RESEARCH. PEER-REVIEWED LABORATORY RESEARCH PUBLICATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS IN 2016, TGENS 14TH YEAR OF OPERATIONS, WE EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT SCIENTIFIC AND MEDICAL PROGRESS ACROSS MULTIPLE AREAS OF THE INSTITUTE, MANY OF WHICH REACHED NEW HEIGHTS AND FORGED THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE FUTURE. OUR CAPACITY TO UNDERSTAND AND LEVERAGE WHAT THE GENOME IS TELLING US HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER. LONG-TERM, OUR HOPE IS THAT DOCTORS WILL LEVERAGE THIS INFORMATION TO INFORM DECISIONS ABOUT PATIENT CARE AS THE STANDARD OF CARE RATHER THAN THE EXCEPTION. AND WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING TODAY ON A LIMITED BASIS, WE ENVISION A DAY IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE WHERE IT WILL HAPPEN FOR ALL PATIENTS ACROSS ALL DISEASES. TOWARD THAT END, MUCH OF WHAT WE LEARN IS PUBLISHED IN LEADING SCIENTIFIC AND MEDICAL JOURNALS, WHICH CONTINUOUSLY ADDS TO THE GROWING KNOWLEDGE BASE OF MOLECULAR RESEARCH AND MEDICINE. IN 2016, TGEN RESEARCHERS PUBLISHED THEIR RESEARCH RESULTS EXTENSIVELY IN NUMEROUS SCHOLARLY PEER-REVIEWED ACADEMIC JOURNALS AND THROUGH PRESENTATIONS AT LEADING NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCES. THE LIST BELOW REFLECTS PUBLICATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS RESULTING FROM PROJECTS FUNDED BY EXTERNAL SPONSORS, BUT SUPPORTED BY UNDERLYING TECHNOLOGY PROVIDED FOR BY STATE OF ARIZONA FUNDING VIA THE $3M PER YEAR IN GENERAL FUNDS APPROPRIATION AS DISTRIBUTED BY NORTHERN ARIZONA UNIVERSITY, AS WELL AS THE $2M PER YEAR IN TOBACCO TAX FUNDING RECEIVED FROM THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES.
