Form 990, Part I, Line 6 VOLUNTEERS VOLUNTEERS SERVE IN A VARIETY OF WAYS, BUT THE GREATEST NUMBERS OF VOLUNTEERS ASSIST WITH THE MORE THAN PINK WALKS, RACE FOR THE CURE RUNS, THE SUSAN G. KOMEN 3 DAY SERIES, AND ADVOCACY PROGRAMS.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Program service accomplishments SUSAN G. KOMEN'S MISSION IS TO SAVE LIVES BY MEETING THE MOST CRITICAL NEEDS IN OUR COMMUNITIES AND INVESTING IN BREAKTHROUGH RESEARCH TO PREVENT AND CURE BREAST CANCER. KOMEN TAKES A 360 DEGREE APPROACH TO FIGHT BREAST CANCER THROUGH: - RESEARCH, TO DRIVE BREAKTHROUGHS THAT WILL BRING US NEW KNOWLEDGE AND ADVANCES IN CARE FOR ALL. -COMMUNITY HEALTH, TO EMPOWER PEOPLE WITH TRUSTWORTHY INFORMATION AND SUPPORT PEOPLE IN THEIR BREAST HEALTH JOURNEY THROUGH DIRECT SERVICES, COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND HEALTH SYSTEMS CHANGE. - AND PUBLIC POLICY, WHERE WE ADVOCATE FOR POLICIES TO CREATE SYSTEMIC AND LASTING CHANGES THAT WILL FUND AND FACILITATE RESEARCH AND ALLEVIATE THE BURDEN ON PATIENTS AND PROTECT ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE, HIGH-QUALITY HEALTH CARE FOR ALL. KOMEN IS A LEADING GLOBAL BREAST CANCER ORGANIZATION, HAVING FUNDED MORE BREAST CANCER RESEARCH THAN ANY OTHER NONPROFIT OUTSIDE OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT WHILE PROVIDING REAL-TIME HELP TO THOSE FACING THE DISEASE. SINCE ITS FOUNDING IN 1982, KOMEN HAS INVESTED OVER $1.1 BILLION IN BREAST CANCER RESEARCH IN MORE THAN 2800 GRANTS AND MORE THAN 500 CLINICAL TRIALS CONDUCTED BY THOUSANDS OF THE BEST AND BRIGHTEST RESEARCHERS ACROSS THE US AND AROUND THE WORLD. KOMEN HAS ALSO PROVIDED OVER $3.3 BILLION IN COMMUNITY INVESTMENT FOR PATIENT NAVIGATION, SCREENING, DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT, EDUCATION, AND EMOTIONAL PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT PROGRAMS SERVING MILLIONS OF PEOPLE IN MORE THAN 60 COUNTRIES WORLDWIDE AS WELL AS PUBLIC POLICY AND ADVOCACY EFFORTS AT THE FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL LEVELS, EMPOWERING POLICYMAKERS WITH KNOWLEDGE TO ACT FOR LASTING, SYSTEMIC CHANGE. KOMEN WAS FOUNDED BY NANCY G. BRINKER, WHO PROMISED HER SISTER, SUSAN G. KOMEN, THAT SHE WOULD END THE DISEASE THAT CLAIMED SUZY'S LIFE. KOMEN REMAINS COMMITTED TO SUPPORTING THOSE AFFECTED BY BREAST CANCER TODAY, WHILE TIRELESSLY SEARCHING FOR TOMORROW'S CURES. RESEARCH SINCE ITS FOUNDING IN 1982, KOMEN'S RESEARCH INVESTMENTS HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO MANY MAJOR ADVANCES IN BREAST CANCER SCIENCE. THE PROGRESS HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT - TODAY, WE KNOW THAT BREAST CANCER IS MORE THAN A SINGLE DISEASE. WE HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE GENETICS OF BREAST CANCER AND THE CRITICAL NEED TO TAILOR SCREENING, DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT, AND PREVENTION STRATEGIES TO INDIVIDUALS THROUGH ADVANCES IN PRECISION MEDICINE. AND WE HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE MANY FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO DISPARITIES IN BREAST CANCER CARE AND OUTCOMES AND HOW TO ADDRESS/ELIMINATE THEM, WHICH ARE ESSENTIAL STEPS ON THE PATH TO HEALTH EQUITY. KOMEN'S RESEARCH PROGRAMS ARE ADDRESSING CRITICAL ISSUES AND CUTTING-EDGE TOPICS THAT WILL DRIVE PROGRESS TOWARDS BREAST CANCER AND PROVIDE THE GREATEST BENEFIT TO PATIENTS. THE PATIENT VOICE IS CENTRAL TO OUR WORK AS WE ASK BIG QUESTIONS AND SEEK OUT THE ANSWERS THAT WILL SAVE LIVES AND END BREAST CANCER FOREVER. WE LEAN ON OUR SCIENTIFIC EXPERTISE AND PATIENT INSIGHTS TO INFLUENCE THE STRATEGY, DESIGN AND CONDUCT OF RESEARCH; TO INVEST IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY AND SUPPORT THE NEXT GENERATION OF DIVERSE RESEARCH LEADERS, AND TO CONDUCT OUR OWN RESEARCH THAT'S ENGAGING DIVERSE, REAL-WORLD PEOPLE AS OUR PARTNERS IN RESEARCH AND CONTRIBUTING TO THE BODY OF EVIDENCE ABOUT BREAST CANCER. WITH OUR OVER $1.1 BILLION RESEARCH INVESTMENT, KOMEN IS SUPPORTING LABORATORY RESEARCH, TRANSLATIONAL STUDIES, POPULATION SCIENCE AND CLINICAL TRIALS THAT ARE PAVING THE ROAD WITH SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES THAT ARE: - UNRAVELLING THE BIOLOGY OF BREAST CANCER, INCLUDING AGGRESSIVE & METASTATIC BREAST CANCERS - LEADING TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW BREAST CANCER DRUGS AND NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND TESTS, - CHANGING THE STANDARD OF BREAST CANCER CARE AND -ADVANCING PERSONALIZED, PRECISION CARE FOCUSED ON THE PERSON AND THEIR BREAST CANCER PROVIDING NEW, EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS TO IMPROVE THE DELIVERY OF THAT CARE. OUR GOAL IS TO IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR EVERYONE AND SAVE LIVES. KOMEN HAS HAD MORE THAN 4,100 RESEARCH DISCOVERIES THAT ARE MOVING US CLOSER TO THAT GOAL. THIS INCLUDES OVER 900 NEW DISCOVERIES FOCUSED ON METASTATIC BREAST CANCER, MORE THAN 1,800 POTENTIAL TREATMENTS AND NEARLY 600 NEW STRATEGIES TO ELIMINATE BREAST CANCER DISPARITIES. THEY INCLUDE ADVCANCES SUCH AS NEW BIOMARKERS, NEW DRUG TARGETS, NEW TREATMENTS, AND NEW HEALTH CARE DELIVERY TOOLS. IN PAVING THIS ROAD WITH SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES, WE'RE ALSO PAVING IT WITH HOPE. THE HOPE THAT NEW WAYS TO DETECT, DIAGNOSE, TREAT, PREVENT AND, ULTIMATELY, CURE BREAST CANCER ARE AROUND THE CORNER AND THERE WHEN PEOPLE WITH BREAST CANCER NEED THEM TO ALLOW THEM TO LIVE LONGER, WITH IMPROVED QUALITY OF LIFE. KOMEN'S RESEARCH PROGRAMS ARE GUIDED BY MORE THAN 50 OF THE WORLD'S LEADERS IN BREAST CANCER RESEARCH, ONCOLOGY AND ADVOCACY. THE SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY BOARD ASSISTS KOMEN IN SETTING ITS RESEARCH STRATEGY AND PRIORITIZING ITS RESEARCH INVESTMENT. THE KOMEN SCHOLARS LEAD AND PARTICIPATE IN KOMEN'S WORLD-CLASS SCIENTIFIC PEER REVIEW PROCESS. OUR ADVOCATES IN SCIENCE BRING THE COLLECTIVE PATIENT VOICE TO KOMEN'S RESEARCH PROGRAMS AND SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITIES, EMPHASIZING URGENCY AND PATIENT IMPACT. TOGETHER, THIS EXCLUSIVE GROUP OF BREAST CANCER RESEARCHERS, CLINICIANS AND ADVOCATES HELP GUIDE THE ORGANIZATION'S WORK TO SAVE LIVES AND END BREAST CANCER. KOMEN'S TEAM OF HIGHLY QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS INCLUDING THOSE WITH PHD-LEVEL EXPERTISE DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT KOMEN-LED, PATIENT CENTRIC RESEARCH & SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMS CREATED TO FILL CRITICAL GAPS IN THE SYSTEM AND DRIVE PROGRESS IN UNDERSTUDIED TOPICS AND EMERGING ISSUES IN BREAST CANCER. THE INFLAMMATORY BREAST CANCER (IBC) COLLABORATIVE, BIG DATA FOR BREAST CANCER (BD4BC) AND SHAREFORCURES ARE EXAMPLES OF THE INNOVATIVE AND IMPACTFUL KOMEN-LED PROGRAMS ACTIVE IN FY24. INFLAMMATORY BREAST CANCER (IBC) COLLABORATIVE IN 2016, KOMEN PARTNERED WITH THE INFLAMMATORY BREAST CANCER RESEARCH FOUNDATION AND THE MILBURN FOUNDATION TO LEAD THIS COLLABORATIVE GROUP FOCUSED ON ACCELERATING IBC RESEARCH AND IMPROVING CARE AND OUTCOMES FOR PEOPLE WITH IBC, A DEADLY AND AGGRESSIVE FORM OF CANCER. KOMEN CONVENED PATIENT ADVOCATES, BREAST CANCER RESEARCHERS AND CLINICIANS TO REVIEW THE STATE OF IBC CARE AND RESEARCH GLOBALLY AND PROPOSE SPECIFIC INITIATIVES TO MOVE THE FIELD FORWARD. THE OUTCOME OF THE DISCUSSIONS WAS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR: THE FIELD NEEDS A FORMAL DEFINITION OF IBC. WITHOUT A CLEAR DEFINITION, BOTH PATIENT CARE AND RESEARCH SUFFER. DIAGNOSIS REMAINS SUBJECTIVE AND TREATMENT VARIABLE. THE GOAL IS TO MOVE BEYOND THE SUBJECTIVE 'CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS' TO A SET OF SPECIFIC DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA AND SCORING SYSTEM THAT WILL ADVANCE IBC RESEARCH AND FACILITATE THE DISCOVERIES THAT WILL IMPROVE THE CARE OF IBC PATIENTS. THE COLLABORATIVE PUBLISHED A PROPOSED DEFINITION OF IBC, BASED ON A REVIEW OF CLINICAL, AND PATHOLOGIC FEATURES IN 2022. THIS EVIDENCE-BASED SCORING SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY BEING VALIDATED (A CRITICAL STEP FOR IT TO BE WIDELY ADOPTED) BY KOMEN-FUNDED RESEARCHERS AT TWO OF THE WORLD'S LEADING IBC CLINICS. IN FY24 KOMEN CREATED AN EASY-TO-USE IBC SCORING SYSTEM ONLINE TOOL TO HELP DOCTORS DIAGNOSE IBC ACCURATELY AND EARLIER. BIG DATA FOR BREAST CANCER KOMEN CONTINUES WORK ON THE BIG DATA FOR BREAST CANCER INITIATIVE, WHICH IS AIMED AT USING BIG DATA TO FUEL SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES AND ACCELERATE THE DELIVERY OF EQUITABLE, PATIENT-FOCUSED CARE. KOMEN EMPOWERS BREAST CANCER PATIENTS, ADVOCATES, AND THE PUBLIC WITH INFORMATION AND TOOLS TO MAKE DATA SHARING UNDERSTANDABLE THROUGH THE BIG DATA FOR PATIENTS EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS. WE ALSO ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES OF INCORPORATING BIG DATA APPLICATIONS INTO BREAST CANCER RESEARCH AND CLINICAL CARE THROUGH WORKING WITH PARTNERS REPRESENTING A VARIETY OF STAKEHOLDERS IN BREAST CANCER RESEARCH AND CLINICAL CARE. ADDITIONALLY, KOMEN SUPPORTS DATA SCIENCE PROJECTS TO IMPROVE BREAST CANCER OUTCOMES AND SAVE LIVES, SUCH AS THE BREAST CANCER HACKATHON CHALLENGE AND KOMEN'S PEOPLE-POWERED BREAST CANCER RESEARCH REGISTRY, SHAREFORCURES. LAUNCHED IN JULY 2023, SHAREFORCURES BUILDS ON KOMEN'S COMMITMENT TO DELIVER THE PROMISE OF BIG DATA TO BREAST CANCER PATIENTS. THIS INVALUABLE BREAST CANCER REGISTRY LEVERAGES THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY AND KOMEN'S BROAD, NATIONAL REACH TO DIRECTLY ENGAGE WITH INDIVIDUALS IMPACTED BY BREAST CANCER WHILE PROVIDING A SAFE, SECURE PATHWAY FOR PEOPLE FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS TO SHARE THEIR HEALTH DATA AND PARTICIPATE IN BREAST CANCER RESEARCH. WITH THIS ROBUST DATA PROVIDED DIRECTLY BY PATIENTS, KOMEN WILL BREAK DOWN SILOS, FUEL SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES AND ACCELERATE THE DELIVERY OF EQUITABLE, PATIENT-FOCUSED CARE.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS (CONTINUED) KOMEN ALSO AWARDS GRANTS TO INDIVIDUAL SCIENTISTS, RESEARCH TEAMS, AND INSTITUTIONS THROUGH A FAIR, TRANSPARENT, RIGOROUS, AND COMPETITIVE REVIEW PROCESS THAT ENSURES MAXIMUM IMPACT FOR OUR RESEARCH INVESTMENT. IN FY24, KOMEN AWARDED 32 GRANTS TO SUPPORT CUTTING-EDGE, IMPACTFUL SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, IN THE UNITED STATES AND ITS TERRITORIES. MOST OF THE GRANTS AWARDED THIS YEAR SUPPORT OUTSTANDING RESEARCH PROJECTS BEING CONDUCTED BY A DIVERSE GROUP OF EARLY CAREER RESEARCHERS, THE NEXT GENERATION OF LEADERS WHO WILL MAKE BREAKTHROUGHS DISCOVERIES AND INNOVATIONS TO END BREAST CANCER. NEW IN FY24, THE SUSAN G.

THE GOAL OF THIS RESEARCH IS TO APPLY IMMUNOTHERAPY TREATMENTS TO MORE PATIENTS, AS NOT ALL PEOPLE WITH BREAST CANCER BENEFIT FROM CURRENTLY AVAILABLE IMMUNOTHERAPIES. KOMEN SCHOLAR CHRISTINA CURTIS, PH.D., OF STANFORD UNIVERSITY, WILL USE ADVANCED COMPUTATIONAL TECHNIQUES TO EXPLAIN HOW A BREAST TUMOR'S SURROUNDINGS IMPACT ITS PROGRESSION IN HIGH-RISK, EARLY-STAGE BREAST CANCER. THE GOAL OF THE PROJECT IS TO IDENTIFY WAYS TO REDUCE THE RISK OF RECURRENCE FOR THE 20-30% OF PATIENTS WHO DIE OF RECURRENT BREAST CANCER. KOMEN SCHOLAR MELISSA TROESTER, PH.D., FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL, WILL EVALUATE TUMOR AND DNA SAMPLES FROM THE CAROLINA BREAST CANCER STUDY TO DETERMINE HOW THE COMPOSITION OF IMMUNE CELLS DIFFERS BETWEEN AFRICAN AMERICAN AND WHITE WOMEN. THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW VARIATIONS WITHIN THE TUMORS OF AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN CONTRIBUTES TO RACIAL DISPARITIES IN BREAST CANCER OUTCOMES AND RECURRENCE. OPPORTUNITY GRANTS: XIN LU, PH.D., OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME, WILL DEVELOP A COMPUTATIONAL MODEL OF BREAST CANCER TUMOR METABOLISM TO IDENTIFY MOLECULES THAT REGULATE A SPECIFIC POPULATION OF IMMUNE CELLS, WHICH ARE ONLY EXPRESSED IN TUMORS AND ARE KNOWN TO DRIVE DISEASE PROGRESSION. IDENTIFIED MOLECULES WILL BE TESTED IN CELL LINES AND ANIMAL MODELS AS POTENTIAL NEW IMMUNOTHERAPEUTIC TARGETS. HARIKRISHNA NAKSHATRI, PH.D., FROM INDIANA UNIVERSITY, WILL DETERMINE THE FUNCTIONAL ROLES OF TWO NEWLY IDENTIFIED MOLECULES THAT ACCOMPANY A COMMON MUTATION IN BREAST CANCER AND MAY WORK TOGETHER TO DRIVE ESTROGEN RECEPTOR-POSITIVE BREAST CANCER. COMPUTATIONAL APPROACHES WILL BE USED TO IDENTIFY ADDITIONAL MOLECULES AND THEIR POTENTIAL AS NEW THERAPEUTIC TARGETS.
