DescPROGRAM SERVICE I: MEDICAL AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH GRANTS Research Programs I: MEDICAL AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH GRANTS The ABTA's historical support of early-career investigators working to improve brain tumor diagnostics and treatment has contributed to populating the modern brain tumor research and scientific community. Many of the scientists we have supported have gone on to mentor new researchers in the field and have become leaders of some of the nation's most prestigious brain tumor centers. In addition to supporting early-career investigators, the ABTA funds discovery science which encourages the development of new approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of brain tumors. These grants allow researchers to conduct the novel early scientific studies needed to secure additional funding for their projects. Interest in these new concepts has been shown by the NIH and venture capitalists, who have provided additional funding at significantly higher levels than the ABTA's grants. The development of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches advances the understanding and treatment of brain tumors, and increases the potential for improving, extending and ultimately saving the lives of those living with a brain tumor diagnosis. An independent, multi-level, external review process ensures that ABTA grants are awarded for the most meritorious research projects. Our prestigious Scientific Advisory Council and grant reviewers are leaders in the brain tumor community. Many were themselves recipients of ABTA funding earlier in their careers. The American Brain Tumor Association's Request for Applications (RFA) Driven Funding Program supports career development and innovative research through the following grant mechanisms: - BASIC RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS $100,000 two-year grants for postdoctoral fellows embarking on careers dedicated to brain tumor research. Through these awards and under the guidance of a mentor, the ABTA is ensuring a diverse pool of highly trained brain tumor scientists will emerge as the next generation of leaders in the field. An ABTA Basic Research Fellowship is highly regarded, and often the first, grant of a postdoctoral fellow's career. To date, we have helped retain over 250 researchers in this field, via ABTA Basic Research Fellowships. Many transitioned into leaders of brain tumor research laboratories and treatment programs, and now serve as mentors to new scientists entering the field. - Medical Student Summer Fellowships $3,000 summer stipend grants allowing medical students to spend a summer conducting brain tumor research. These grants aim to expand the nation's pool of physician-scientists in the brain tumor research field. These summer fellowships are one of the most exciting areas for the ABTA to fund as they are so meaningful to these enthusiastic students embarking on their careers. This unique opportunity gives the grantees the ability to focus on a research project full-time and determine how they can incorporate brain tumor research into their developing careers. It also provides them with valuable research lab skills that will motivate them to pursue a career in neuro-oncology research. - Discovery Grants One-year, $50,000 grants that fund high risk/high impact projects with the potential to change current diagnostic or treatment paradigms for adults and children with brain tumors. These grants specifically encourage novel research at its earliest stages, in the hopes that it spurs additional funding in the future. Discovery Grants, while considered the most "high risk/high impact" of our funding areas, carry the highest opportunity for reward and innovation. To date, 53 of these grants have been awarded. Funding has been provided for a variety of focus areas including immunotherapy, new biomarkers, nanoparticles and stem cell research. Research Programs II: Strategic Partnerships The ABTA invests time and resources into strategic partnerships to leverage capacities of different organizations to address critical challenges and cross-cutting issues in research, clinical practice, and public health - ABTA is one of the founding members of the Brain Tumor Funders Collaborative (BTFC), which was established in 2005. The BTFC is a unique alliance of brain tumor research funding organizations that work together to enhance collaboration and strategic coordination of research efforts. The BTFC sees funders, advocates, clinicians, and researchers as one community with shared goals. - BTFC includes six organizations that represent both private philanthropic and advocacy organizations - BTFC participates in a number of activities with the aim of identifying forward-looking translational research opportunities. These activities include a series of BTFC- hosted workshops and planning meetings - BTFC releases periodic calls for applications to fund research projects through this partnership. Currently, the BTFC is supporting a $2 million international research project exploring the commonalities among long-term glioblastoma (GBM) survivors - ABTA is a member of the Health Research Alliance (HRA), which brings together not-for-profit, non-governmental funders of biomedical research and training to foster open communication and collaboration among members, provide comprehensive data and analysis about the funding of biomedical research and training by HRA member organizations, identify gaps in funding and facilitate innovative grant-making, and address any issues that are key to accelerating research discovery and its translation to the patient. These efforts support the continuum of health research and training from biomedical science to applications that advance health. - ABTA has a partnership with the American Association for Neurological Surgeons (AANS) through two programs that support early career investigators. Both of these programs foster and recognize early career talent in the field of neurosurgery: - American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) Young Investigator Award - Congress of Neurological Surgeons (CNS) Young Investigator Award - ABTA has supported the Society for Neuro-Oncology (SNO) Annual Meeting for many years through conference support and educational programming. SNO has become a dynamic force in neuro-oncology, providing a rich environment for its diverse worldwide membership. - ABTA has developed a new relationship with the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) which is the oldest and largest scientific organization in the world focused on every aspect of high-quality, innovative cancer research. Its reputation for scientific breadth and excellence attracts the premier researchers in the field. AACR also publishes a number of highly ranked peer-reviewed journals in cancer research. - Starting in 2016, the ABTA supported the attendance of 8 early career investigators at the AACR Annual Meeting. These AACR-ABTA Scholar-in-Training Awards were presented to researchers conducting high-merit brain cancer research who presented their research findings at the conference. The conference was attended by approximately 18,000 participants from around the world - In 1990, ABTA initiated a brain tumor registry feasibility study that led to the founding of the Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States (CBTRUS) in 1992. The registrys purpose is to ensure that all brain tumors, benign and malignant, are recorded. Since it was founded, the ABTA has continuously supported the printing of the CBTRUS report. Additionally, ABTA supported a CBTRUS supplement to the Society for Neuro-Oncology official journal, Neuro-Oncology. The supplement report was entitled the American Brain Tumor Association Adolescent and Young Adult Primary Brain and Central Nervous System Tumors Diagnosed in the United States in 2008-2012. Statistics in this supplement provided in-depth information on tumor type, location and age group within the 15-39 year old population. - Since 2008, the ABTA has been the only patient advocacy organization represented on the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Central Nervous System Cancer Panel, which reviews the NCCN CNS guidelines on an annual basis and makes recommendations for updates based on the evolving standard of care. - The ABTA also supports the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) annual meeting that occurs every year in conjunction with the American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO). The RANO meeting provides a forum at which scientists and clinicians are working together to develop appropriate guidelines for measuring patient response to treatment in clinical trials. Research Programs III: Research Engagement ABTA prioritizes continued engagement with the broader brain tumor research community through a number of ways: - ABTA Scientific Advisory Council is a group of top-level scientists and clinicians who advise the organization on its research-related efforts. With the guidance of these experts, ABTA can invest every research dollar asDesc

Form And Line ReferenceSCHEDULE I, PART IV - MONITORING USE OF GRANT FUNDSFormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe American Brain Tumor Association funds research through five primary prograYs: the Basic Research Fellowship Program, awarding two-year, $100,000 grants supporting young researchers entering the field of brain tumor research; the Discovery Research Grant Program, one-year, $50,000 grants for high-risk, high-impact projects deemed to have the potential to change current diagnostic or treatment paradigms for adult and pediatric brain tumor care; the Translational Grant Program, one-year, $75,000 grants to researchers working to gather the data necessary to transition research from the laboratory into actual patient treatment and care; the Medical Student Research Fellowship Program, $3,000 grants for ten-to-twelve week summer laboratory experiences; and Collaboratives, the joint funding of feasibility research and clinical studies with professional and other research funding organizations. We also support professional forums and opportunities for data gathering and/or information exchanges among the medical and scientific communities. ABTA Fellowships, Translational Grants, and Fellowships require a written report of outcomes (an abstract) at the conclusion of the funding period. Those completing their award period come to Chicago to report their findings at a poster reception attended by the Board of Directors, Research Committee members, and ABTA constituents. Attendees at that event ask questions and interact directly with the researchers. Print copies of the outcomes reports are distributed at those meetings. Expenditure reports at the conclusion of funding are now also required at the conclusion of the funding period (this was a recent addition). For Fellowships and Translational Grants, unused funds are due back to ABTA.ExplanationTxt

PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11A - REVIEW OF 990Prior to signing and submitting each year's Form 990 and accompanying attachments, all members of the Board of Directors review and comment on the document. If a Board meeting is scheduled within thirty days of the submission date: All Board members receive a copy of the Form 990 and attachments in electronic format. Board meeting materials are sent to Directors approximately a week before the meeting. Directors who are unable to attend the meeting will be invited to submit questions, concerns, or support for the document as drafted prior to the meeting. Such feedback is sent to the President & CEO, the Board Chair, or the Treasurer for inclusion in the discussion of the draft. At the Board meeting, the Chair entertains a motion to authorize the President & CEO to sign and submit the draft as presented or as amended through discussion. A majority of those present can approve the motion. If a Board meeting is not scheduled within thirty days of the submission date: All Board members will be sent a copy of the Form 990 and attachments electronically at least thirty days prior to the submission date. Directors are encouraged to ask questions about, raise issues about, and indicate support for the draft within ten days. Such feedback can be sent to the President & CEO, the Board Chair, or the Treasurer by email or other form of delivery as long as it is received within the ten days. If a Director does not respond within the ten day period, it will be considered that the Director is satisfied with the document as drafted. Any issues raised by Directors within ten days after receiving the draft Form 990 will be reviewed and resolved by the President & CEO, the Treasurer, and a simple majority of the members of the Board's Finance Committee in collaboration, with assistance as needed from the tax preparer. A summary of the changes made to the draft Form 990 and the reasons for the changes will be emailed to all Directors ten days or more before scheduled submission. Should changes by Directors to the new draft of Form 990 be received within seven days, the Board Chair and Treasurer will together decide whether: (1) to proceed with submission and make warranted adjustments though the IRS amendment process; or (2) request an extension for filing and resolve remaining issues at the subsequent Board meeting.

PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 - COMPENSATION REVIEW AND APPROVALWhen hiring the President & CEO and other key employees, and thereafter at least every three years, the executive committee of the board will engage in a detailed review of compensation packages to ensure they fit current conditions. As part of this process, the executive committee will review: Salary surveys Written employment contracts Information from 990's filed with the IRS Other information and input as needed sourced through an independent compensation consultant. For positions other than that of President & CEO, the President & CEO may assist in researching compensation information and may recommend compensation packages for key employees. The executive committee will recommend salary levels for key employees to be included in the budget and approved as part of the annual budget approval process. The process and the documents reviewed each time a compensation package for the President & CEO or a key employee is established or assessed will be recorded as the process is occurring.
