NEW PROGRAM SERVICES FORM 990, PART III, LINE 2 THE MULTIPLE MYELOMA RESEARCH FOUNDATION, (THE "MMRF") INTENDS TO SPONSOR A MULTI-YEAR PERSONALIZED MEDICINE RESEARCH INITIATIVE IN MULTIPLE MYELOMA. IT BEGAN CERTAIN PROCESSES IN TAX YEAR 2010 IN CONTEMPLATION OF SUCH INITIATIVE AND INTENDS TO START SUCH INITIATIVE BEGINNING IN TAX YEAR 2011. THIS IS A NEW ACTIVITY FOR THE MMRF AS IT WILL BE TAKING ON THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF A SPONSOR OF RESEARCH (E.G., INITIATION, MANAGEMENT, AND/OR FINANCING OF THE RESEARCH) RATHER THAN SIMPLY FUNDING SUCH RESEARCH SPONSORED BY A THIRD PARTY, AS IT HAS DONE PREVIOUSLY. THEREFORE, MMRF IS REPORTING THIS ACTIVITY TO THE IRS AS A CHANGE IN ITS ACTIVITIES PURSUANT TO SECTION III QUESTION 2 OF THIS FORM 990. PURSUANT TO THE MMRF'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION, ONE OF ITS PURPOSES IS TO "SUPPORT AND PROMOTE IMPROVED TREATMENT AND DEVELOPMENT OF A CURE FOR MULTIPLE MYELOMA... [N]OTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION, THE OBJECTS AND PURPOSES OF THE CORPORATION SHALL BE EXCLUSIVELY CHARITABLE, SCIENTIFIC AND EDUCATIONAL WITHIN THE MEANING OF CODE SECTION 501(C)(3)." TO MEET THIS PURPOSE, THE MMRF INTENDS TO SPONSOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH CARRIED ON IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST TO DISCOVER A CURE FOR MULTIPLE MYELOMA. MMRF INTENDS TO SPONSOR A PERSONALIZED MEDICINE INITIATIVE IN WHICH 1000 OR MORE NEWLY DIAGNOSED PATIENTS WILL BE ENROLLED THROUGH SEVERAL SITES (I.E., HOSPITALS, ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTERS AND OTHER COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS) ACROSS THE COUNTRY. NO EXPERIMENTAL DRUG WILL BE USED IN THE STUDY. RATHER BLOOD AND BONE MARROW SAMPLES WILL BE TAKEN FROM THE PATIENTS PERIODICALLY OVER THE COURSE OF THEIR TREATMENT. THE STANDARD OF CARE (I.E., DRUGS AND TREATMENT) FOR EACH PATIENT WILL BE DETERMINED BY SUCH PATIENT'S PERSONAL PHYSICIAN. THE TISSUES SAMPLES COLLECTED WILL BE PLACED IN A BIOBANK. AN UNRELATED, THIRD PARTY, NOT-FOR-PROFIT BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE WOULD THEN PERFORM LABORATORY TESTS ON A PORTION OF EACH OF THE SAMPLES RESULTING IN GENOMIC DATA ABOUT EACH PATIENT. THE PURPOSE OF THE RESEARCH STUDY AS SET FORTH IN THE RESEARCH STUDY PROTOCOL IS AS FOLLOWS: "THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS LONGITUDINAL STUDY IS TO IDENTIFY PATIENT SUBGROUPS AND PHENOTYPES DEFINED BY MOLECULAR PROFILING AND CLINICAL FEATURES. THESE PROFILES WILL ENABLE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF MECHANISMS OF DISEASE, DRUG RESPONSE AND PATIENT RELAPSE. ULTIMATELY THE STUDY IS INTENDED TO DRIVE SUCCESSFUL DRUG DEVELOPMENT AND PATIENT CARE IN MULTIPLE MYELOMA." BASICALLY, A PERSONALIZED MEDICINE APPROACH LOOKS AT AN INDIVIDUALS GENETIC MAKE UP, ALLOWING PHYSICIANS TO GIVE THE RIGHT DRUG, AT THE RIGHT DOSE, TO THE RIGHT PATIENT, AT THE RIGHT TIME BASED ON THE PATIENT'S GENETIC INFORMATION. IN OTHER WORDS, THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE RESEARCH STUDY IS TO COME UP WITH A STANDARD OF CARE MODEL FOR MULTIPLE MYELOMA BASED ON A PATIENT'S GENOMIC DATA. ONCE A CERTAIN NUMBER (E.G., 50) OF PATIENTS' INFORMATION HAS BEEN COLLECTED AND THE GENOMIC DATA PRODUCED FROM THE LABORATORY TESTS CONDUCTED BY THE THIRD PARTY, THE GENOMIC DATA AND THE CLINICAL DATA COLLECTED ON EACH PATIENT, WILL BE PLACED INTO ONE LARGE DATABASE (I.E., THAT CONTAINS BOTH GENOMIC AND CLINICAL DATA) (THE "PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY"). THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY WILL THEN BE ACCESSIBLE VIA THE INTERNET TO RESEARCHERS. EACH TIME A NEW MILESTONE NUMBER OF PATIENTS' SAMPLES HAVE BEEN ANALYZED AND GENOMIC INFORMATION DERIVED (E.G., 50, 100, 150, 200 ETC.), SUCH INFORMATION, ALONG WITH THE CLINICAL DATA OF THE RELEVANT PATIENTS, WILL BE POSTED TO THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY AND ACCESS GRANTED TO RESEARCHERS. ACCESS TO INFORMATION POSTED TO THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY WILL OCCUR AS FOLLOWS: AFTER ANY POSTING OF INFORMATION TO THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY, THE MMRF, CERTAIN PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS IN MULTIPLE MYELOMA RESEARCH FROM LEADING ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTERS, CERTAIN SITES WHICH HAVE ENROLLED PATIENTS INTO THE RESEARCH STUDY (E.G., HIGH ENROLLING SITES), A NOT-FOR-PROFIT BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE WHICH IS A LEADER IN GENOMIC RESEARCH, AND CERTAIN PHARMACEUTICAL AND BIOTECH COMPANIES WILL HAVE ACCESS TO THE INFORMATION FOR THE FIRST NINE MONTHS AFTER EACH POSTING OF INFORMATION. EACH WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO PUBLISH THEIR FINDINGS (I.E., IN SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS, TREATISE, ETC.) STARTING 9 MONTH AFTER EACH POSTING. AFTER THE FIRST 9 MONTHS FOLLOWING ANY POSTING OF INFORMATION, ANY RESEARCHERS AND ENROLLING SITES INVOLVED IN THE RESEARCH STUDY THAT DID NOT YET HAVE ACCESS TO THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY WILL HAVE ACCESS AND BE ABLE TO PUBLISH THEIR FINDINGS. AT THE END OF THE 12TH MONTH FOLLOWING ANY POSTING, THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN SUCH POSTING WILL BE AVAILABLE TO THE INTERESTED PUBLIC FOR RESEARCH, EDUCATION AND PUBLICATION. FUNDING FOR THE PERSONALIZED MEDICINE INITIATIVE WILL BE DERIVED PRIMARILY (>60%) FROM PRIVATE DONATIONS. SUPPLEMENTAL FUNDING WILL ALSO BE FROM SEVERAL PHARMACEUTICAL AND BIOTECH COMPANIES. THESE COMPANIES WILL NOT HAVE ANY DECISION-MAKING AUTHORITY OVER THE PROTOCOL DESIGN, OVER WHO CAN ACCESS INFORMATION POSTED TO THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY, OVER THE CONTENT OF INFORMATION POSTED TO THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY, OR OVER WHO CAN ACCESS PATIENT TISSUE. THE SELECTION OF ENROLLING SITES IS IN THE SOLE DISCRETION OF THE MMRF. ALL SCIENTIFIC DECISIONS WILL BE MADE BY A SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY BOARD COMPOSED SOLELY OF NON-INDUSTRY SCIENTISTS AND RESEARCHERS. TISSUE SAMPLES FROM THE PATIENTS IN THE RESEARCH STUDY WILL BE AVAILABLE TO THE ENTITIES AND INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE HAD ACCESS TO THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY, WITH CONSIDERATION GOING TO THE ENTITIES AND RESEARCHERS WHO PARTICIPATED DIRECTLY IN THE RESEARCH STUDY AND WHO CAN MOST EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY USE THE SAMPLES IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INFORMATION POSTED IN THE PATIENT DATA REPOSITORY TO FURTHER A CURE FOR MULTIPLE MYELOMA.
