    1 2015 Annual Report

  • A Note from Michael

    Dear Friend,

    When the Foundation launched, we promised to focus on the most urgent medical needs of people living with Parkinson’s. We also pledged to do so with tenacity and a commitment to maximize the impact of every gift.

    In 2015, your partnership — and that of patients, families, researchers and clinicians throughout the Parkinson’s community — helped us accelerate momentum in the field in new and invigorating ways.

    We still have much to do, but your friendship continues to move us toward a cure. Thank you for sharing our purpose and our progress.

    3 2015 Annual Report

    TODD SHERER, PhD Chief Executive Officer

    DEBORAH W. BROOKS Co-Founder and Executive Vice President

    Like the synapses and circuits that make up our neurological function, Parkinson’s research is a complex network. It relies on the interconnectivity, shared purpose and partnership of funders, academia, industry, clinicians and allied health care providers, and those living with Parkinson’s disease (PD).

    The Michael J. Fox Foundation sits at the nexus of these groups, working single-mindedly to accelerate progress toward a cure on behalf of the estimated five million individuals living with Parkinson’s worldwide. (continued...)

  • As this report details, 2015 was marked by a groundswell not only of therapeutic pipeline activity, but also of Parkinson’s community engagement. Thanks to the generosity and commitment of our worldwide network of supporters, we funded $87.8 million in research programs last year — a single-year record for our organization. And our investments continue to bear fruit in the form of tremendous activity in the Parkinson’s therapeutic development pipeline of both symptomatic and potentially disease-modifying treatments.

    Today, no fewer than seven disease-modifying therapies (a treatment that could slow, stop or even reverse progression of Parkinson’s disease, something no current treatment has been proven to do) are advancing through clinical testing.

    Genetics remains the leading path to critical breakthroughs in this arena. In 2015, two Foundation-funded investigations targeting alpha-synuclein, the gene whose protein clumps in the brains of people with PD, moved into human trials. One of these already is planning for a Phase II study. (Read more on page 20.) Meanwhile, mutations of the gene known as LRRK2 — the most common known genetic cause of PD — remain the focus of intense research interest. We are cautiously optimistic that our partners working toward the first LRRK2 inhibitor drugs could initiate clinical trials as soon as 2017.

    On the symptomatic front, as many as four new therapies are positioned to come to market in the next two years, mostly rescue drugs to address disabling motor complications, including “off” periods. In 2015, two new treatments, Rytary and Duopa — novel reformulations of carbidopa/levodopa designed to reduce “off” periods — were approved by FDA and took their place on pharmacy shelves. And as this report went to print, we shared news of the U.S. regulatory approval of Nuplazid (pimavanserin), the first treatment for psychosis (hallucinations and delusions) in Parkinson’s.

    We join patients and families in celebrating these important wins. But we remain sober about the work still to be done, and we continue to look to the Parkinson’s community as vital partners in the continuing advancement of Parkinson’s therapeutic development as a whole.

    As more drugs enter late-stage testing, the need for validated, objective biomarkers intensifies. Biomarkers of Parkinson’s would

    make clinical trials more efficient, optimize the selection of patient populations for clinical testing, and clarify regulatory pathways to approval for breakthrough treatments. MJFF’s landmark Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), launched in 2010, has grown to become the field’s premier vehicle for biomarker development. Last year, the study expanded its genetic cohorts and extended longitudinal observation of the original cohort. PPMI has studied a total of nearly 1,000 individuals to date, and its unparalleled dataset has been accessed more than 500,000 times by researchers worldwide. Today, studies using PPMI biosamples are yielding never-before-possible insights into the natural history of PD. For example, in September 2015, leaders of the study’s genetics core published an analysis of PPMI data outlining five clear criteria that could for the first time allow researchers to screen for Parkinson’s risk and eventually even predict who will get PD.

    As evidenced in part by patients’ and families’ tremendous willingness to take part in PPMI, people with Parkinson’s have long been eager to engage in a true dialogue with scientists. In 2015, the Foundation launched Fox Insight, an online observational study and portal for patients to share their experiences and concerns directly with researchers, helping ensure that R&D priorities are reflective of the most pressing unmet medical needs of people with PD. Fox Insight aims to collect and analyze data from thousands of individuals on measurable features of Parkinson’s, such as slowness of movement, tremor and sleep quality, enabling researchers to assemble a better picture of the clinical progression of Parkinson’s and track its relationship to molecular changes. To date, more than 4,000 participants have enrolled; many more are needed. (Read more on page 46.)

    And because virtual research is most effective when it complements traditional “brick and mortar” studies, our Foundation continues to grow Fox Trial Finder, our online clinical trial matching tool. Last year, Fox Trial Finder crossed the 50,000-mark in registered volunteers, expanded scientifically to include studies focused on atypical parkinsonisms underrepresented in research, and enlarged its international footprint to include France. This brings the total number of countries worldwide in which it is matching volunteers and trials to 31.

    In addition to tools for research engagement, our Foundation hears every day from patients,

    4 The Michael J. Fox Foundation

  • loved ones and caregivers seeking community connection and high-quality educational offerings to better understand their disease. We are eager to continue working with the PD community to spread the word about opportunities to partner in the search for a cure.

    Our grassroots fundraising program, Team Fox, contributed more than $11 million to our research efforts through thousands of community-based events last year. And we connected with friends old and new through an expanding palette of online and in-person events. The Tour de Fox, a summer-long odyssey brought together more than 3,000 participants and supporters across the United States and Canada, and raised an astounding $2.5 million for research. (Read more on page 54.)

    Research roundtable discussions and day-long Partners in Parkinson’s symposia reached tens of thousands of patients and families, as did our Third Thursdays webinars, Ask the MD series and MJFF podcasts breaking down the latest news on drug development and living with Parkinson’s.

    In short, we left 2015 more optimistic and energized than ever by the achievements to date and the possibilities ahead. And we couldn’t do any of it without you. Thank you for helping realize our shared vision of a world without Parkinson’s disease.

    With gratitude,

    5 2015 Annual Report

    Andy S. Grove1937 2016

    AS THE MICHAEL J. FOX FOUNDATION PREPARED THIS REPORT, we joined the technology and business communities in mourning the passing of Andrew S. Grove in March 2016 at

    age 79.

    A visionary leader who was never satisfied with the status quo,

    Andy served for many years as president, CEO and chairman of

    the board for Intel Corporation. He was well-known for his love

    of challenging assumptions and for motivating others to reach

    goals often thought unattainable.

    Andy was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease around the

    time of MJFF’s founding in 2000 and became an adviser who

    influenced the Foundation’s philosophy of accountability, failure

    analysis and willingness to change and adapt. We are grateful

    to Andy for his extraordinary contribution to our mission.

  • 13 2015 Annual Report

    “Parkinson’s research is an ecosystem, and The Michael J. Fox Foundation is at its center. In the end, we all want to find a therapy for PD. To do that you need the best information — including about the targets and potential biomarkers. No one company or single academic lab can do that effectively.”

    Leveraging the Power of Everyone’s Data

    MJFF’S EFFORTS TO FACILITATE COOPERATION BETWEEN DRUG DEVELOPMENT LEADERS — from biotech startups to industry giants — help

    clear hurdles to a cure. Yet, data sharing and

    comparison among companies are atypical for

    research organizations.

    The Foundation’s uniquely solution-driven

    approach is welcomed by partners such as Darryle

    Schoepp, PhD, who serves as vice president and

    head of neuroscience research, discovery, pre-

    clinical and early development of Merck & Co.

    Merck is one of the Foundation’s longstanding

    collaborators, working with MJFF and other

    companies to support the Parkinson’s Progression

    Markers Initiative and to determine the relationship

    between LRRK2 and other proteins.

    A 25-year veteran of PD research, Dr. Schoepp first

    began investigating Parkinson’s and treatments

    to block the breakdown of dopamine in graduate

    school. When his mother was diagnosed with

    Parkinson’s nearly a decade ago, the critical

    need for a cure was driven home in a new way,

    ERROL JACOBS WAS A BROTHER, UNCLE AND FRIEND who passed away in December 2014 at age 77. A high school

    teacher for nearly 40 years, he was remembered by his loved

    ones, colleagues and students as a witty storyteller and a keen

    explorer who loved art, music, vigorous political debate and

    traveling the globe. Errol lived with Parkinson’s for more than

    a decade before his passing, and arranged for The Michael J.

    Fox Foundation to become a beneficiary of his estate.

    A committed philanthropist, Errol believed that a search for knowledge and

    understanding in many fields was vital to culture and human progress. MJFF is

    grateful to Errol, his family and his caregiver for sharing his legacy with us and for

    their dedication to accelerating a cure for Parkinson’s.

    A Legacy of Intellect and Generosity

  • 20 The Michael J. Fox Foundation

    The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s ultimate goal is the development of a treatment to slow, stop or reverse disease progression. Currently, no such treatment exists, but it is the only definition of success we recognize.

    Today, seven potential disease-modifying therapies have progressed to clinical (human) trials. MJFF has lent support to all as part of our high-risk, high-impact approach:

    Accelerating toward a Cure

    FOUR TRIALS ARE TARGETING ALPHA-

    SYNUCLEIN, the protein that forms clumps in the

    brains of people with Parkinson’s. In 2015, two

    companies entered clinical testing: one therapy

    seeks to bind to alpha-synuclein, preventing its

    accumulation, and the second introduces antibodies

    (the body’s natural disease fighters) against the

    protein. Two additional companies are planning

    Phase II trials of other antibody approaches. MJFF is

    working closely with each through financial support

    and/or collaboration on clinical trial design.

    IN SEPTEMBER, THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF

    HEALTH (NIH) ANNOUNCED FUNDING for a Phase

    III trial of inosine, a precursor to the antioxidant

    urate. Studies have shown that people with higher

    levels of urate have lower risk for Parkinson’s or

    slower rate of progression. The MJFF-funded Phase

    II study showed that inosine is safe, tolerable and

    does raise urate levels in people with early-stage PD.

    PHASE III TESTING FOR ISRADIPINE — a calcium

    channel blocker currently prescribed to treat high

    blood pressure — is progressing. MJFF funded pre-

    clinical work and the Phase II study. In early 2016,

    researchers shared a record pace of recruitment for

    the NIH-funded Phase III trial, with more than 300

    volunteers enrolled last year.

    MJFF ALSO IS FUNDING A PHASE I TRIAL of

    nicotine patches based on strong data indicating a

    reduced risk of PD in smokers. The study seeks to

    determine possible biological connections between

    nicotine and Parkinson’s.

  • 25 2015 Annual Report

    —MATTHEW LYDON Vice President, Microsoft Corporation

    “One of the most difficult things I’ve ever done professionally was to tell my team at Microsoft that I have Parkinson’s. I shouldn’t have been surprised by their reaction — a giant embrace, followed by countless offers to get involved.”

    MICROSOFT EXECUTIVE MATT LYDON’S PD DIAGNOSIS has inspired employee-led fundraisers and in-kind consulting to support

    MJFF’s mission of speeding research. Microsoft

    employees work with MJFF staff to analyze our

    website and technical infrastructure to improve

    performance and speed. The Foundation is

    grateful to Microsoft, its employees and the

    many companies who support our mission

    through donations, pro-bono services and

    matched gifts.
