We honor the past 15 years we have funded research and commit to funding 15 more! As you all know, Phase One was founded in 1999 after Alberto had successfully completed his treatment for testicular cancer. Sadly, Kevin was not as fortunate and lost his battle to brain cancer in 2009. This year, together, we join forces and fight on in Kevin’s memory to fight cancer. Indeed, because of the generous support of friends like you, we are doing great things. Incredible progress is being made in finding safer and more effective treatments. We thank our wonderful event committee for all their hard work. We thank the board for their support and trust in following our vision for this evening. We thank the wonderful team of doctors who dream to find a cure. This year, our virtual journal has allowed us to donate even more money to treatment and research. Thank you for your support and understanding that “going virtual” allows for more dollars funding research as we save on printing a paper journal. Together we can make a difference in the fight against cancer and we thank you for your support and for saying “I DID support PHASE ONE”. Meritt Elliott Stacy Valner WE DO support PHASE ONE A MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS April 30, 2015 Dear Friends, On behalf of the Phase One Board of Directors – Welcome to the 15th Annual Gala. Fifteen! Many of you attending tonight have been to every single Phase One Gala beginning in 2000 at L’Ermitage Beverly Hills. For some of you, this is your first Gala, and you are in for an extraordinary evening! One thing we all have in common is that we are here this evening to support early cancer research and clinical trials. Since that first Gala, we have raised more than $15 million, funded dozens of clinical trials at the best medical institutions in Southern California and grown to over 3,000 supporters. This is a legacy we can ALL be proud of. We are thrilled that PHASE ONE co-founder Stacy Valner and board member Meritt Elliott are chairing tonight’s event. Along with their superb and dedicated committee, Meritt and Stacy have done an outstanding job in creating another one-of-a-kind evening. The theme for tonight -- I DO – is a pledge for recommitment. A recommitment to PHASE ONE. A recommitment to those we have lost. A recommitment to those we love who are fighting cancer. A recommitment to finding a cure for cancer. The PHASE ONE Board is proud to lead in this recommitment. We have accelerated our efforts to advance research and therapies for the treatment of cancer by deploying the funds we have raised through your generous donations. We are visiting all of the major medical facilities in Los Angeles, meeting with new investigators. This year, we are funding the exciting ovarian cancer research of Dr. Sanaz Memarzadeh at the UCLA Broad Stem Cell Center. Tonight, guests at the Gala are able to add their own individual support, via smartphones, to her important work. Phase One is growing – and growing stronger. This year we welcomed Edward Woods to our board. Thank you for joining our quest. We are redesigning our website (www.phaseonefoundation.org) and adding wonderful new programs in support of our mission. Join our mailing list (info@phaseonefoundation.org) to learn more. None of this would be possible without you. Thank you for all you DO to support PHASE ONE! MARINA COHN 2015 Chair, Board of Directors WE DO support PHASE ONE A MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDERS Dear Friends, As many of you know, a little over sixteen years ago, my mother and I were diagnosed with very different types of cancer. Unfortunately for my mother, at the age of 58 and in the epitome of health, she had a type of cancer where little was known, and she was given a year to live. Nine days later, I was also diagnosed with cancer. Even though my cancer had pretty much spread throughout my body, a lot was known about the type of cancer I had and my odds of survival were more optimistic. After six months of intensive chemotherapy treatments and multiple surgeries, I was told I was “cancer free.” Just a few days later, my mother passed away. Both my mother and I were treated by some of the best doctors and medical facilities that Southern California has to offer. The primary difference between our illnesses was the knowledge or lack of that existed regarding each one of our cancers. Therefore, fifteen years ago, Stacy and I became determined to make it our mission to raise funds for all types of cancer research. Our hope was that no one should be as unfortunate as my mother was, and that every cancer patient be provided with a sense of hope. A small group of friends joined with us and Phase One was born. Today, this group of people has grown and evolved into a large and diverse one representing all walks of life in our city. I am very proud and thankful for their commitment and leadership. In the last fifteen years, we have funded millions of dollars for cancer research at every major medical center and research facility in our greater Los Angeles community as well as at various other national institutions. Incredible progress is being made on a daily basis in finding safer and more effective treatments. We are certain that one day cancer will be controlled and ultimately cured in our lifetimes and Phase One is determined to stay in the forefront of this quest. We thank you for sharing our vision and for your support. All my best, Alberto Valner WE DO support PHASE ONE WHO WE ARE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Marina Cohn Chairperson Diane V.

The group was founded in 1999 by Stacy and Alberto Valner, with a small group of friends, all couples with young children. Each one of these individuals had been affected by a diagnosis of cancer in themselves or in a close family member. Once a new idea or novel drug is identified in the laboratory, the FDA requires three levels of clinical testing prior to the approval of that drug for widespread use. These studies are usually referred to as trials in Phase I, II, or III. The focus of a Phase I trial is to determine the appropriate dose and schedule of a given drug and its side effects. Patients enrolled usually have advanced cancers, which have progressed through standard therapy or for which standard therapy does not exist. Sometimes these patients have been through "everything" and still function extremely well. The Phase II trial applies the Phase I information on dose and schedule and tries to get a hint of efficacy. The Phase III trial is the final set of studies and usually involves hundreds, if not thousands of patients worldwide. Clinical trials are the only way to understand the best and safest therapies available to patients with any disease. With your support PHASE ONE hopes that its efforts to fund Phase I trials and research will help in the fight against cancer, by finding treatments that will transform what might be a terminal illness into one where patients can live a full and productive life. PHASE ONE is determined to: ● ● ● ● ● ● Offer hope to the patient today that has been told there is nothing left. Allow patients in our community the access to whatever types of therapy may be available around the world. Make the time a patient goes through treatment easier by improving patient care. Support research that takes advantage of the vast amount of new information about what causes cancers. Lay the groundwork for larger scale multi-center research that can set new standards of oncology care. Make sure that those diagnosed with cancer in the future will have even safer and more effective treatments to live long lives with their disease too. Since 1999, PHASE ONE has raised more than $15 million in support of these trials and programs at some of the most prestigious organizations in Southern California including Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, City of Hope, UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, USC/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles and the Premiere Oncology Foundation Lung Cancer Initiative. WE DO support PHASE ONE WHAT WE SUPPORT Dedicated to ensuring that the Southern California community has access to the most promising novel therapies available for those afflicted with cancer, PHASE ONE directed its efforts to support research that might not be funded by alternative mechanisms. The studies selected included novel therapies and conventional ones, all having some scientific question about efficacy, biologic correlates, surrogate markers (radiographic, laboratory, tissue based or other), or mechanism of action. The findings of these studies will ideally lead to further research or further independently-funded projects. 2015 Dr. Sanaz Memarzadeh, UCLA Broad Stem Cell Research Center Grant Amount: $300,000 PHASE ONE is funding a two-year grant, totaling $300,000, in support of Sanaz Memarzadeh’s, MD, PhD, ovarian cancer research at the UCLA Broad Stem Cell Research Center. Research suggests that most, if not all, cancers arise from cancer stem cells. Conventional cancer therapies target rapidly dividing tumor cells, but cancer stem cells have tools to escape chemotherapy and radiation. At some point, the cancer stem cells begin to self-renew, creating a new tumor and the cancer begins to grow again. Ovarian tumors account for about 3% of all malignancies in women, but are responsible for a disproportionately large number of cancer related deaths. One reason these cancers are dangerous is that they are detected late. The symptoms of ovarian cancer are often non-specific and can resemble other common ailments. Currently, there is no definitive screening test for ovarian cancer; therefore tumors cannot be detected at an early stage. High grade serous tumors are the most common form of ovarian cancer. Despite being called “ovarian” cancer, recent work suggests that the majority of these tumors have their origins in the fallopian tubes. The standard of treatment for high grand serous ovarian cancer is surgical removal of the tumor followed by chemotherapy. However, most patients with high grade serous ovarian cancer relapse in one year and many succumb to this illness within five years despite a complete initial response to therapy. The clinical behavior of high grade serous ovarian cancer suggests that subsets of these tumor cells have stem cell-like properties and are resistant to existing therapies. These cells comprise a small fraction of the tumor but are the cancer initiating cells. In order to eradicate serous cancers, we must first find a way to target the serous cancer stem cells. UCLA Broad Stem Cell Research Center member Dr. Sanaz Memarzadeh and her team have made major progress in isolating this population of serous tumor cells with stem activity (the cancer stem cells). They believe these cells are responsible for high rates of relapse in ovarian cancers. More importantly, they have identified and are testing ways of eliminating these tumor cells by adding drugs to existing standard chemotherapy. They envision a handful of strategies that can be used to individualize each patient’s care based on tumor analysis in the laboratory. Their proposed treatments may significantly improve survival of patients. With the generous support from the PHASE ONE Foundation, Sanaz is moving the first of these therapeutic strategies forward into clinical trial for treatment of ovarian cancer. As a practicing clinician it is Sanaz’s experience caring for patients with ovarian and other gynecological cancers that motivate her to define better, less toxic and more effective treatments to replace or compliment conventional therapies. Historically, ovarian cancer research is woefully underfunded; generous philanthropic resources enhance Sanaz’s ability to pursue innovative and novel ideas that will greatly impact future treatments of this disease. 2014 Dr. Richard Tuli, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Grant Amount: $323,423 Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is a devastating disease with the lowest survival rate of any solid cancer. Gemcitabine chemotherapy and radiotherapy given concurrently remain the mainstay treatments for patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, which cannot be removed by surgery, but also has not spread to other areas of the body. Both gemcitabine and radiotherapy kill tumor cells by interfering with their DNA, the genetic blueprint. Veliparib is a poly (ADPribose) polymerase (PARP)1/2 inhibitor; PARP1/2 proteins are also involved in DNA repair. Studies have shown that inhibiting PARP1/2 activity can significantly enhance the effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in killing tumor cells. Our own laboratory work has shown excellent synergy between veliparib (a PARP inhibitor), radiotherapy and gemcitabine in killing pancreatic cancer cells grown in culture, and in prolonging survival in mice with pancreatic tumors. Based upon these promising results and with the generous support of the PHASE ONE Foundation and Diane V. Allen, we are currently enrolling patients in a first-in-human, investigational clinical study (phase I) to test the safety and efficacy of veliparib in combination with gemcitabine and radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Prior to and during therapy, patient tumor and blood samples will also be tested for levels of different DNA repair proteins and mutations, such as BRCA1/2. This molecular “signature” will hopefully serve as a “biomarker” to predict how the patient and tumor are responding to treatment. We are hopeful that we will be able to select out the subset of favorable patients who respond to this regimen, and design future studies (phase 2/3) by “personalizing” treatments using PARP1/2 inhibitors. 2013 Dr. Karim Chamie, University of California Los Angeles Grant Amount: $142,350 Dr. Karim Chamie, with UCLA Urology, is working to combat the rapid increase in recent years of urothelial cancer by investigating a potentially new treatment method involving a hydrogel polymer (chemical compound), which is liquid at room temperature, mixed with chemotherapy to treat this difficult-to-detect and highly reoccurring form of cancer. The polymer-chemotherapy combination takes on the shape of the cavity of interest (such as a kidney) at body temperature and has the potential to deliver chemotherapy to the targeted site while minimizing side-effects. The polymer can also be mixed with a dye that binds to tumor cells to facilitate detection of tumor cells within a specific organ. Traditionally, what has been most challenging in treating this type of cancer is the ability to deliver the chemotherapeutic agent at a high concentration level to the exact tumor site. This new discovery has the potential to overcome the previous challenge by using the polymer-chemotherapy directly to the targeted site. Dr. Chamie and his team are optimistic in pursing this study and are grateful to the PHASE ONE Foundation for supporting these efforts. Dr. Joseph Riss, University of California Los Angeles Grant Amount: $310,000 Despite advancement in targeted treatments, metastatic kidney cancer poses a therapeutic challenge due to its resistance to conventional models of treatment. As long-term survival for patients with metastatic kidney cancer remains poor, UCLA Urology’s Allan Pantuck, MD and Arie Belldegrun, MD, along with Joseph Riss, PhD, have been working for years to develop innovative methods of therapy. With the assistance of critical funding provided by the PHASE ONE Foundation, this research team developed a kidney cancer vaccine that was recently approved by the FDA and given to the first patient in February 2013. Even with this grand milestone, the researchers must now monitor the effectiveness of the vaccine, especially given the kidney tumor’s resistance to current therapeutics. With the continuous support of the PHASE ONE Foundation, Dr. Riss and his team will use previously identified indicators to develop diagnostic tools for monitoring the new treatment and aim to develop a next-generation vaccine that will combat tumor resistance in metastatic kidney cancer. Dr. Anna Pawlowska, City of Hope Grant Amount: $37,000 Ewing’s sarcoma is the second most common primary bone tumor in children and adolescents. While advances in treatment have increased survival rates for children with localized disease to nearly 70 percent, fewer than 30 percent of patients who experience relapse or the spread of their cancer survive. In addition to these grim statistics, there is no nationally accepted “gold standard” of treatment for patients with advanced Ewing’s sarcoma. More effective therapies are urgently needed to save the lives of young patients. City of Hope will be launching a five-year pilot clinical trial to study the effectiveness of a promising treatment for high-risk patients with advanced Ewing’s sarcoma: whole-body MRIguided radiation therapy followed by autologous hematopoietic cell transplant, with a novel combination of high-dose chemotherapy. Led by Anna Pawlowska, M.D., Clinical Professor of Pediatrics, the proposed study will assess whether this therapy is feasible, safe and likely to increase patient survival rates. A similar approach tested in Germany and Austria increased children’s survival rate to 70 percent after two years and 56 percent after three years with minimal toxicity, but this approach has never been tested in the United States. In a novel approach, guests at the 2013 PHASE ONE Gala DIRECTLY donated $37,000 to help fund part of this five-year trial by supporting MRI tests for patients not covered by their insurance and/or support a portion of the salary of a Clinical Research Assistant. This critical seed funding would help young patients with Ewing’s sarcoma access a promising new therapy now and start collecting the patient data needed to secure additional public and private funding for future years of the trial. 2012 Dr. Antoni Ribas, University of California Los Angeles Grant Amount: $294,400 With the support of the PHASE ONE Foundation we will conduct a phase 1 clinical trial (MART1 F5 TCR Engineered Adoptive Cell Transfer Therapy with CTLA4 Blockade) with the goal of genetically programming the human immune system to efficiently target cancer cells in patients with advanced stage melanoma, the deadliest of skin cancers. This clinical trial builds upon the experience at UCLA over the past 3 years in the use of T cell receptor (TCR) engineered adoptive cell transfer therapy. This therapy is manufactured in-house and results in the generation of a large army of immune system cells that are genetically redirected to recognize and kill melanoma. With this therapy we have noted high initial response rates, but tumors come back. A major limitation has been a progressive decrease in the antitumor functionality of the TCR engineered immune cells. The antibody tremelimumab blocks a major negative regulator in immune cells and will be tested with the goal of maintaining the cancer killing functionality of the TCR engineered lymphocytes given to patients. This protocol has administrative approval by the UCLA regulatory committees and it has already been filed and approved by the Food and Drug Administration. 2011 P.R. Lowenstein, M.D. PhD and Maria G. Castro, PhD Department of Neurosurgery and Cell and Developmental Biology, The University of Michigan School of Medicine, Ann Arbor, Michigan Grant Amount $216,000 Highly malignant brain tumors are uniformly lethal. Patients usually survive less than 2 years post-diagnosis, with very few still alive 5 years later. In spite of constant developments in surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy a breakthrough for this particularly aggressive cancer has not been yet discovered. Over the last ten years we have developed a novel approach for the treatment of brain tumors. Based on an evolutionary and developmental understanding of the structure and function of the brain immune system, we decided to restitute to the brain those immune cells normally absent from it, as a potential new approach to treat brain tumors. The immune cells normally absent from the brain are those in charge of turning on the anti-tumor immune response. Their absence from the brain helps us explain why normally anti-brain tumor immune responses are ineffective. By attracting those specific immune cells to the brain and the brain tumors, we expect them to identify brain tumor antigens and unleash a therapeutically effective immune attack to eliminate brain tumors. To achieve this we have turned adenoviruses which normally can cause lung infections and other diseases into therapeutic agents. We have engineered the viruses to deliver directly to the brain and the brain tumors a protein that will recruit the missing immune cells to the brain to start a clinically effective immune response. As our work uses viruses as agents of treatment to induce immune responses, our therapeutic approach is described as a “combined gene-and immune therapy”. Following more than ten years of development and experimental testing we are now ready to start clinical trials in patients suffering from glioblastoma multiforme. With very generous support from the PHASE ONE Foundation, we are now on the threshold of starting the first ever clinical trials of this new therapeutic approach for the treatment of deadly highly malignant brain tumors. The proposed trial, which was approved by the Food and Drug Administration on April 7, 2011 is currently undergoing the final evaluations by the Institutional Biosafety Committee, and the Institutional Review Board for Clinical Trials. We expect these evaluations to be finalized within the next few weeks. Once our trial has cleared all necessary Committee reviews, it will be ready to start. PHASE ONE has thus provided the green light to move the dreams of two basic scientists into the challenging arena of clinical trials. As the trial starts enrolling patients we will look forward to keeping PHASE ONE abreast of all therapeutic developments. We hope, and for the sake of the patients, we pray, that treating the first patients may represent in Winston Churchill’s prophetic words, “Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.” 2010 Children’s Hospital Los Angeles Grant Amount: $410,000 In February 2010, PHASE ONE granted $410,000 over two years to fund a Phase I study at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. The study, led by Dr. Stuart E. Siegel, is of AC220 for children with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This grant will provide an opportunity in getting a second generation FLT3 inhibitor drug tested in a pediatric population that truly focuses on the concept of FLT3 inhibition in high-risk ALL and AML patents. The goal of the study is to obtain sufficient laboratory and clinical data to enable the design of a larger Phase II study. Results from this study would also leverage funding to support the Phase II part of this project from both the National Cancer Institute, as well as the pharmaceutical company Ambit that makes the drug. 2009 The Premiere Oncology Foundation Lung Cancer Initiative Grant Amount: $266,500 Premiere Oncology Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to cancer research, integrative medicine, patient/family support services and community education, will utilize the grant to support a comprehensive lung cancer program to include multi-disciplinary research. Lung cancer is the world’s top cancer killer, claiming more than 1.3 million lives per year, yet few financial resources have been dedicated to this disease. The Premiere Oncology Foundation Lung Cancer Initiative focuses on the use of FDA-sanctioned novel treatment regimens in collaboration with experts in the field of lung cancer detection and treatment. The program will foster dialog among practitioners caring for lung cancer patients, and provide a means for seamless interaction with medical and radiation oncologists, thoracic surgeons, radiologists, pulmonologists and primary care physicians caring for these patients. Dedicated to whole-patient care and recognized for expediting clinical trials, Premiere’s flagship cancer center in Santa Monica offers patients the newest cutting-edge treatments, rapid access to novel, internationally available therapies and integrative medicine all under one roof. Additionally, Premiere provides services in its Scottsdale, Arizona center and research affiliation with Pacific Hematology & Oncology Associates in San Diego. 2007–2008 The Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute-Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Grant Amount: $2,000,000 Internationally renowned cancer researcher Steven Piantadosi, MD, PhD, was named the inaugural PHASE ONE Foundation Endowed Chair of the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute (SOCCI) at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center at a ceremony February 6, 2008. SOCCI provides cutting edge cancer clinical trials and sub-cellular research, in addition to stateof-the-art patient care. Its research efforts are focused on developing breakthroughs that translate as efficiently as possible into new methods for the treatment of cancers of the lung, brain, colon, prostate, pancreas, breast, spine, ovaries, pituitary, thyroid and blood system, plus melanoma and other cancers. With this endowment, Dr. Piantadosi will define and direct the activities of the Institute and serve as a key figure in framing the national debate about cancer, while having a decided impact on the direction and success of new research. City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center Grant Amount: $345,000 The City of Hope Division of Medical Oncology and its Department of Clinical and Molecular Pharmacology, directed by Yun Yen MD, PhD, is the City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center equivalent to a Phase I Solid Tumor Program. In this program is the exciting translation of molecules from the laboratory to the clinic. City of Hope will use the PHASE ONE funds to support novel Phase I clinical trials developed in collaboration with the Department of Clinical and Molecular Pharmacology. These resources would be utilized to fund novel protocols or existing protocols where additional funds could translate findings from the laboratory to the clinic. Support for novel “NEW” programs (25–50K/ year for two years) in Clinical and Molecular Pharmacology that can reach the clinic during the two years of the award, and bring innovation from our laboratories will be the highest priority. The City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center’s Phase I Program has a commitment to the Developmental Therapeutics and Hematologic Malignancies Programs directed by Yun Yen MD, PhD, Richard Jove PhD, and Steven Forman MD. City of Hope will establish competitive awards (25–50K/year for two years) that combine a laboratory and clinical Principal Investigator that translate laboratory observations into the clinic during this period. Programs in Solid Tumors and Hematologic Malignancies including lymphomas, in both adults and children would be included. 2006 Kuk-Wha Lee, M.D. PhD Grant Amount: $250,000 Dr. Lee is a graduate of the Medical Scientist Training program at Loma Linda University School of Medicine, obtaining her PhD and MD. Her clinical training is in pediatrics and she was fellowship trained in Pediatric Endocrinology at the Mattel Children’s Hospital at UCLA. In training she was the recipient of the prestigious Giannini Foundation Fellowship, SteinOppenheimer Award, and the LWPES Clinical Scholar Award for her research. In addition, she is the recipient of the UCLA Prostate Cancer SPORE Career Development Award for her research in cellular and animal models of human prostate cancer. Her laboratory studies the biological functions of Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and its binding partners in cancer biology, specifically prostate cancer. Specifically, she studies the molecular mechanisms by which this molecule enters cells; targets specific areas within cancer cells (e.g. the nucleus and mitochondria); and initiates the programmed cell death cascade. Unique assays in their laboratory have been developed to study serum levels of these molecules and also have developed unique transgenic and knockout mouse models of human disease. Based on preliminary work published from their laboratory the plan is to initiate a Phase I trial of IGFBP-3 in men with prostate cancer in the near future. 2005 Karen Reckamp, M.D.—A Phase 1 Trial of Vaccine Therapy with Lung Cancer Grant Amount: $500,000 With her mentor, Steven Dubinett, M.D., Director of the UCLA Lung Cancer Program, Dr. Redcamp’s efforts are in the immunologic treatment of lung cancer through novel genetic-based immunologic stimulation. Her proposal is for a Phase I Clinical Trial of the intratumoral administration of an immune stimulant called a chemokine to induce an immune response that could yield immunity to this cancer. 2004 Dr. Arie Belldegrun and Dr. Alan Pantuck Grant Amount: $250,000 UCLA Department of Urology Specializing in New Treatments for Kidney and other genitourinary cancers, particularly vaccine therapies directed against newly identified targets. Dr. Heinz-Josef Lenz and Dr. Daniel Vallboehmer Grant Amount: $250,000 USC/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center Specialists in Gastro-Intestinal Malignancy searching for molecular markers to predict prognosis and response to therapy. Dr. Charles Sawyers and Dr. Ingo Mellinghoff Grant Amount: $250,000 UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center Hematology/Oncology Translational Scientists working on molecular mechanisms that underlie the development and spread of cancer. Dr. David Agus and Dr. Mitchell Gross Grant Amount: $250,000 Cedars-Sinai Prostate Cancer Program looking at innovative treatments for prostate cancer and using information technology systems to identify molecular markers for response to therapy. 2003 Dr. Lee Rosen—Cancer Institute Medical Group Grant Amount: $276,250 In 2003, Dr. Lee Rosen conducted a Phase I study of a medication that could theoretically shut down the development of new blood vessels from which tumors grow and possibly spread. Using a series of radiographic assessments including CT/MRI/Bone scans, etc. as well as conventional scans such as CT/MRI, Dr. Rosen and his colleagues at the Cancer Institute Medical Group, examined the response of their patients to this new medication and to what degree. He also found the use of PET scans, which look at changes in tumor metabolic activity rather than size, is very effective, PHASE ONE has been sponsoring a trial which will look at whether a combination of PET/CT scans can aid in the assessment of the drug’s efficacy more quickly than conventional CT scanning alone. 2002 Dr. Sven de Vos, Dr. Christos Emmanouilides, Dr. William H. McBride and Dr. Jonathan W. Said—Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center Grant Amount: $150,000 PHASE ONE sponsored an Indisciplinary Grant to study the use of the Proteasome Inhibitor PS-341 in the treatment of refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphomas in terms of clinical efficacy, mechanisms of resistance and new models of combination therapy. The study was conducted by principal investigator, Sven de Vos, M.D., and co-investigators, Christos Emmanouilides, M.D., William H. McBride, M.D. and Jonathan W. Said, M.D. at the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center. 2001 Dr. Carolyn Britten—Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center Grant Amount: $175,000 PHASE ONE sponsored the recruitment of a full-time clinical research physician for a full year. Highly respected oncologist, Dr. Carolyn Britten, joined the faculty of the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center in early 2001 and PHASE ONE funded her research for one year. Dr. Britten is involved in four promising Phase I trials testing new and unique therapeutic strategies in signal transduction and angiogenesis WE DO support PHASE ONE A MESSAGE FROM OUR MEDICAL ADVISORY BOARD April 30, 2015 Dear Friends, The Phase One Medical Advisory Board wishes to thank the Board of Directors of Phase One for its vision in supporting the next generation of cancer scientists. The support of investigators whose goal is the translation of discoveries to find better, safer, and more effective treatments for patients with cancer will form the lasting legacy of the Phase One Foundation. This evening as we celebrate with laughter, entertainment, and fine food, we salute the tireless efforts of this young and spirited organization. Since 1999, Phase One has raised over $15 million for cancer research, funded more than a dozen research programs, and equally as important has created greater awareness in our community about the importance of funding clinical trials and investigative studies. All of us on the Medical Advisory Board are very proud of achievements like this. But we are also always aware of how much more has to be accomplished before we can say, “We are indeed curing cancer.” Because of the generosity of all of you with us tonight, the task is made easier. Thank you for giving us the opportunity and for your all-important support of Phase One. Sincerely, Robert A.

He first joined City of Hope in 1979 after completing a fellowship there. He did his undergraduate studies at St. John’s College, Annapolis, Maryland and attended medical school at the University of Southern California In addition to serving on the Phase One Medical Advisory Board, he is a member of the Scientific Advisory Board for the Cure for Lymphoma Foundation, a member of the Scientific Subcommittee of Transplant Biology for The American Society of Hematology, Chairman of the Marrow and Stem Cell Committee for the Southwest Oncology Group, and a member of the Gene Therapy Advisory Council, City of Hope and Beckman Research Institute. Philip H. Koeffler, M.D. Dr. Philip Koeffler is a Professor of Medicine at UCLA School of Medicine and is Director of the Division of Hematology/Oncology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. He did his undergraduate training at the University of Wisconsin, Madison and then attended Baylor College of Medicine for Medical School Training. He completed his internship and residency at the University of Southern California, and his fellowship in Hematology/Oncology at UCLA. He went through the professorial ranks from Assistant Professor to Full Professor at UCLA from 1978 to 1986, and in 1992, he moved his laboratory to a large research area at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. He has over 600 peer-reviewed scientific articles published or in press and over 75 chapters in medical scientific books. Dr. Koeffler uses cellular and molecular biology to ask cancer-related questions. He has large tissue banks for many different cancers including brain, breast, lung and leukemias and lymphomas. He has well over 100 different cancer cell lines frozen viably and at any one time perhaps 30 of these cell lines are growing in the laboratory. In addition, he frequently uses mice (nude, transgenic, and deletional). Some of his major accomplishments include: being the first lab to identify p53 to be mutated in human cancer; being one of three labs to identify p53 as a transcription factor; developing one of the first human myeloid leukemia cell lines (KG-1) which has over the years has become a model to study leukemia (these cells were used to clone, for the first time, the alpha interferon gene and to make the CD34 antibody which has been used to purify hematopoietic stem cells); being first to develop a cell line (KS-1) infected with Karposi’s Sarcoma associated virus (HHV-8), but not infected with either Epstein Barr Virus or human immunodeficiency virus; being first to clone cyclin A1, a protein involved in cell cycle progression and performing experiments to understand the protein’s biology; being first to clone and study transferrin-2 and receiving a patent on various aspects of this protein which is important in iron metabolism, and if mutated, causes hemachromatosis; being first to clone a myeloid transcription factor known as C/EBP, a protein critical for myeloid (white) cell development (Dr. Koeffler’s lab was one of two labs to first identify the genetic abnormality in patients with “Specific Granule Deficiency” disease – germline mutation of C/EBP and one of two labs first to identify mutations in C/EBP in acute myelogenous leukemia. He also noted that the gene was silenced in a number of other cancer subtypes, a discovery that lends itself to become a therapeutic target). Heinz- Josef Lenz, M.D. Heinz-Josef Lenz, M.D., is a Professor of Medicine and Professor of Preventive Medicine in the Division of Medical Oncology at the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California (USC). He is Co-director of both the Colorectal Center and the Gastrointestinal (GI) Oncology Program, as well as is Scientific Director of the Cancer Genetics Unit at USC/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center in Los Angeles.

He completed a residency in hematology and oncology at the University Hospital Tübingen in Germany, a clerkship in oncology at George Washington University Medical Center in Washington, D.C., and a clerkship in hematology at Beth Israel Hospital of Harvard Medical School in Boston, Mass. He served subsequent fellowships in biochemistry and molecular biology at the Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center. An active researcher, Dr. Lenz focuses on topics including the regulation of gene expression involved in drug resistance, patients at high risk of developing colorectal cancer, determination of carcinogenesis, and methods of early detection and better surveillance of these cancers. He is a member of several professional societies such as the American Association for Cancer Research, American Gastroenterological Association, and National Society of Genetic Counselors. He also serves on the national advisory board of a number of professional organizations. A Fellow of the American College of Physicians, Dr. Lenz is the author of numerous peer-reviewed publications and invited papers, reviews and editorials. In addition to having a National Cancer Institute-funded laboratory, he is a recipient of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Young Investigator Award, ASCO Career Development Award, and the STOP CANCER organization’s Career Development Award.

He received his M.D. and interned at the University of California, San Francisco, and completed his Medical Oncology training at the National Institutes of Health, during which time he conducted molecular biology investigations in the Laboratory of Tumor Cell Biology. Since 1977, he has been continuously funded by the National Institutes of Health. Prior to UCI, Dr. Meyskens was at the Arizona Cancer Center at the University of Arizona where he served as Associate Director of Cancer Prevention and Control, from 1984 to 1989, and established one of the most successful Cancer Prevention Research Programs in the world. While at Arizona, he was Principal Investigator of the Vitamin A and Chemoprevention Program Project (PO1 CA 27502) and the PO1 CA41108 Program Project for the study of colon cancer and prevention. He has established a similar chemopreventive effort at UCI and is conducting phase I, II, III and IV chemopreventive trials supported by the NCI and NIH. His current major efforts also include accrual to a phase IIb trial of Bowman-Birk Inhibitor in oral leukoplakia, a phase IIb/III cohort of patients at risk for colon polyps treated with DFMO plus sulindac versus placebo, and a unique natural history, epidemiology and chemoprevention study of patients at high risk of prostate cancer based on familial background. All studies have extensive translational components and are funded by the National Cancer Institute. Additionally, for over 25 years he has conducted active clinical and laboratory research into the cellular and molecular mechanisms of transformation of human melanocyte and melanoma cells and he is recognized as one of the premier clinical and experimental oncologists concerned with melanoma.
