From the 2011 NCI Best Practices
B.1.3.3. Business Planning
•Business planning can provide justification for financial and institutional commitment and quantification of startup and sustainability costs.
B i l i h ld b i t t d i t ll t f ti bi i•Business planning should be integrated into all aspects of operations, biospecimen resource management, and evaluation.
•Resources should aim to establish a documented annual business plan developed with d t t t ff i t d li d ith th i i d i i f th B idepartment staff input and aligned with the vision and mission of the resource. Business plan items should be specific, measurable, actionable, relevant, and time bound.
•The resource business plan should also include a formal continuity plan that addresses ll ibl ti l di ti i l di di t l iall possible operational disruptions, including disaster planning.
•If the resource functions as a service center, the business plan should address issues related to service and revenue generation.
Qualities of well-designed biobanking networks
The biobanks outlined in the review although they operate under a variety ofThe biobanks outlined in the review, although they operate under a variety of models, share many of the following characteristics, which in most cases are detailed in their web sites:
• Governance models with clearly stated technical standards, ethical guidelines, access policies and procedures, scientific rationale, and long-term custodianship plans, i.e. assuring that the program is sustainable from a technical and economic perspective.assuring that the program is sustainable from a technical and economic perspective.
• A strong quality assurance/quality control program with clearly defined standard operating procedures, and regular audits to assure compliance.p g p , g p
• A comprehensive business model that, unless it is entirely supported by public funds, has a sustainable cost-recovery plan, or other means to assure consistent long-term y p gfinancial support.
• In general, adherence to a set of best practices governing both technical and ethical/legal issues, such as those published by the International Society for Biological and Environmental Repositories (ISBER http://www.isber.org) and NCI (http://biospecimens.cancer.gov).

Cost Recovery Example 1 with Highly Conservative assumptions shows recovering 70% of costs by Year 5:11
The More Realistic Example 2 uses going-market price data for samples, and demonstrates the potential to achieve Full Cost Recovery by Year 3 just from the sale of commodities alone:

Best Practices
• Decrease in time spent processing samples in order to meet research requirements• Avoided cost of having to replenish samples because of higher sample quality
• Improves “Lean” abilities to avoid redundant processing costsPractices
Stronger Clinical Correlation
InfrastructureLeverage
• Improves “Lean” abilities to avoid redundant processing costs
• Higher annotated data promotes improved data sets and more accurate modeling• Avoids re-collection of data, saving time and cost
• Smaller research organizations can leverage storage and bioinformatics system infrastructure, reducing the need to purchase their own
Job Creation Impact on Economy
LeverageMore Efficient
Research• Reduction in re-experimentation due to higher quality samples
• Avoided cost of having to replenish samples because of higher sample quality
• New jobs created with the potential to spur an increase in certified biobanking professional opportunities, and the resultant economic impact
Improved Patient Diagnosis and Therapeutic
Care
Clinical Trials Cost Savings
• Higher quality specimens reduce clinical trials timeframes and cost• Higher quality samples advance biomarker research
• Improved specimen handling standards reduce the risk of misdiagnosis
• Reduction in adverse impacts and loss of human lifeCare • Savings to patients and healthcare providers

HER2 assay issues: Quantifiable Economic Benefits of Standardization
• HER2 (ERBB2) gene is amplified in ~ 20% of breast cancers
• HER2 “positive” status is an important f li i l dmeasure of clinical outcome and
recommended therapy• Positive result triggers therapy:
~$55K/year~$55K/year• False-positive: risk of cardiotoxicity, no
clinical benefit – stressful for patient• False negative: missing potentially• False-negative: missing potentially
beneficial treatment• Up to 5,000 false positives and 7,000
false negatives occur per year resulting inASCO/CAP recommendations to revise specimen handling to improve assay reliability published in 2007:false negatives occur per year resulting in
millions of dollars wasted • Problems with testing start with
variability in the way specimens are

TCGA:Example of benefit of implementing best practices
• Tissue quality parameters set by the technical demands of the molecular analysis platforms
• All 10 analysis centers would analyze exactly the same molecules from the same samples from the same patient - all data directly comparable
– Sufficient quantity to satisfy all platforms q y y p
– Sufficient quality to yield interpretable data on all platforms
• The target number of 500 cases per tumor type (lung, glioblastoma, ovary) in the pilot study: defined depth of
l i d b bilit f fi di i h th t analysis and probability of finding genomic changes that occur infrequently (3% level)
Early failures in sample qualityfrom existing collections
Early quality failure rate was over 70% at cost of over $2000 per case (tumor, normal tissue or blood, data, personnel costs) and failed cases had to be replaced to reach target 500 cases/tumor.g /

Economic AnalysesNext steps for OBBR
• Refine the caHUB program cost and pricing models through fine-tuning of:tuning of:– Annual accrual of cases– Types of cases to be collected for various partners– Specimen processing protocols and downstream analyses– Outsourcing plans for caHUB Pilot period and beyond
• Adjust cost recovery targets as more detailed information is received and• Adjust cost recovery targets as more detailed information is received and further guidance provided on NIH funding mechanisms, timing, etc.
• Develop use cases/studies to detail and document the economic benefits that th HUB ill t f h i th f bi i litthe caHUB will create for research in the areas of biospecimen quality; processing protocols; infrastructure leveraging
• Develop a cost analysis and tracking tool and resulting price schedule for the diti d i f HUBcommodities and services of caHUB
