CONSEQUENCE
OF ACTION
In one
suburban Philadelphia high school where
tobacco is a dangerous temptation luring teens into a risky
addiction and a perilous future, Dr. Daniel Rodriguez is
using the school as a proving ground where a critical
transformation is at work. Kids in jeopardy are becoming
healthy adolescents.
Rodriguez, a behavioral scientist funded by the Cancer
Research and Prevention Foundation (CRPF) at the University
of Pennsylvania, is on a quest that began years ago on the
streets of his hometown. When he was just a teenager himself, the Washington, D.C., native would walk miles from
home with his friends into the heart of Georgetown. The
weekend jaunts turned into an important outlet of physical
activity for Rodriguez and sparked a lifelong interest that
became the source of his professional ambitions.
He wanted to understand the power of physical
activity. Can it change our attitudes and our lives? Can the
simple act of exercise keep children and adolescents safe
from harmful substances? Rodriguez tested his theory this
past spring when he surveyed 400 10th graders in one school
district outside Philadelphia. The students were questioned
in depth about their smoking habits and history of physical
activity, with some surprising results.
“The students reported involvement with 64 different
types of physical activity, from kickball to rollerblading,”
Rodriguez says. “There was an amazing variety. But the
initial findings seem to indicate physical activity alone isn’t
enough of a deterrent to smoking, and some activities,
such as skateboarding, may even pose a risk.
“Kids who engage in certain activities, especially
extreme activities like skateboarding, appear more likely to
smoke,” Rodriguez says. Why? While individual activities may
be filled with physical exertion, they are often unsupervised.
2 THE CANCER RESEARCH AND PREVENTION FOUNDATION
“ACTIVITIES
INVOLVING ADULT
SUPERVISION, SUCH AS BALLET
OR KARATE, MAY ACTUALLY
PREVENT SMOKING.”
Dr. Daniel Rodriguez
“It’s simply kids hanging out with friends,” he says, “and
that can mean peer pressure and unhealthy behaviors,
including smoking.
“Other activities involving adult supervision, such as
ballet or karate, may actually prevent smoking,” Rodriguez
says. The bottom line? Children need adult supervision.
“When coaches, parents and teachers set rules and monitor
behavior, teenagers smoke less often. And the activity doesn’t
even have to be physical.
“Our results also indicate that kids are more likely to
smoke if they see their parents smoking inside their homes,”
Rodriguez adds. “That isn’t news to those of us who are
parents,” he says, “but it has been eye-opening to realize how
much influence parents have on their children’s behavior.”
Despite the litany of good and bad influences,
Mom and Dad continue to be their children’s role models.
“More than ever,” Rodriguez cautions, “adults need to step
up, get involved and take responsibility for helping children
grow into caring, healthy intelligent grownups.”
Now Rodriguez is hoping to expand his research and
develop a nationwide pilot program, based on the data produced
through his CRPF grant. “It has been a tremendous experience,” Rodriguez says, “and I’m optimistic that what we are
learning will make a real difference in the lives of children.”

INVESTIGATIVE
VERVE
In one
California laboratory, basic science is
powered by pure imagination and creativity is let loose on
the laws of logic. That’s where tumor immunologist Dr. Gang
Zeng is crafting his masterwork, using the robust serum of
the body’s sensitive immune system to create a more effective
prostate cancer detection tool.
Born to a family of physicians in the Shandong
Province of China, the CRPF-funded researcher is an assistant
professor of urology at the University of California at Los
Angeles. It has been more than a decade since he left his home
to pursue graduate studies in the United States. In 1997,
armed with his newly earned American doctorate, Zeng
began a five-year stint at the National Cancer Institute under
the mentorship of world-renowned cancer immunologist
Dr. Steven Rosenberg.
“Dr. Rosenberg helped me understand how basic
science can make a real difference in people’s lives. That’s
what I want to do—translate the fundamentals of basic
science into improved patient care. It’s a family tradition
that I am happy to continue,” Zeng says.
“IN
EARLY DETECTION,
WE ARE LOOKING FOR
A TEST THAT IS HIGHLY
SPECIFIC AND A CLEAR
INDICATION OF EARLY
STAGE CANCER.”
Dr. Gang Zeng
Today he is using immunology to fashion a tool that
may someday complement the widely used prostate specific
antigen (PSA) test for prostate cancer detection. While the
PSA test has played a significant role in reducing prostate
cancer deaths, it has serious limitations.
“An elevated PSA level doesn’t automatically mean
prostate cancer. We call that low specificity. That means that
the antigen is not a pure target for detection of the disease,”
Zeng says. “And in early detection, we are looking for a test that
is highly specific and a clear indication of early stage cancer.”
The answer may be found in the body’s unique
immune response to the “homegrown invader,” according
to Zeng. “When our bodies are attacked from the outside by
a virus, for example, a single antibody is produced to fight it,”
he says. “That means we can search for one target for diagnosis
and early detection. But the immune response to cancer varies
from person to person and may involve multiple antibodies.
Tumors can even fool our bodies into believing that a malignant
cell is nothing out of the ordinary.”
Still Zeng isn’t discouraged. “We have come a long
way in the last ten years, and sophisticated technology
is helping us identify multiple offending proteins and their
corresponding antibodies.”
The painstaking chore of synthesizing proteins for
testing in the laboratory is time consuming and expensive,
but with the assistance of computer analysis, Zeng is able to
create proteins and generate comprehensive analytical data
that reveal critical information. He has already developed an
“epitope array,” a panel of proteins that appear to be specific
to prostate cancer tissue and produce unique antibodies.
Preliminary tests on human prostate cancer tissue
show remarkable specificity. While this is just the beginning
stage of research, it is critical to the future of Zeng’s longrange research goal. “The Foundation’s funding is enabling
me to make this research real and to ultimately prove the
value of the immunological tool to the detection of
prostate cancer.”

ONE DEDICATED
SCIENTIST
VS. A PAIR OF
DANGEROUS GENES
Two genes
make powerful twin targets.
Coupled within breast cancer cells, the genes are double
trouble, but they may also offer a telling signal to communicate
a woman’s risk and increase her chance for a cure.
Dr. Hua Su is using her CRPF grant to study the
genes in hopes of developing a simple molecular test to
diagnose breast cancer in its earliest stages. Known as DCIS
(ductal carcinoma in situ), this cancer is contained within
the breast’s ducts; no malignant cells have traveled beyond
the tumor to invade nearby tissue; and it is nearly 100
percent curable.
“I’M
CONFIDENT THAT WE
WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY
A SET OF PROTEINS AND
For Dr. Su, understanding the role these genes play in
breast cancer is more than an interesting scientific question;
it is an opportunity with enormous lifesaving potential.
GENES THAT WHEN FOUND
“I want to better understand the genetics of breast
cancer because the disease has such a profound effect on
women in the United States,” Su says. She has found a
committed mentor in Dr. Careen Tang, whose laboratory is
at the epicenter of breast cancer research at the Georgetown
University Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, and
she is well on her way to achieving her goal.
WILL SIGNAL AN EARLY
The two genes that are the focus of Su’s research are
known as ErB-2 and CXCR4. ErB-2 is a known oncogene,
a gene that causes cancer, found in the tissues of advanced
breast cancer that helps cancer cells spread beyond the breast.
The CXCR4 gene is found in advanced breast cancer as well
and is a common factor in many cancer cells. Yet its function
isn’t well understood. It has also been discovered alone, without ErB-2, in very early stage breast cancer tissue and in

Dr. Hua Su
precancerous tissue in the breast. This distinction may be a
key to early breast cancer detection.
“We need to clarify the role of CXCR4,” Su explains,
“and determine if it behaves differently in early stage cancer
tissues than it does in later stage cancers. We need to understand if and how the two genes work in collaboration.”
Do the two need each other to prompt the spread of
breast cancer? Could the presence of the CXCR4 gene alone
in breast tissue serve as a signal for DCIS or even for abnormal cells before they make the dangerous transformation
into cancer?
Dr. Su hopes to find the answers in hundreds of breast
cancer tissue samples she is testing. “There are thousands of
molecular patterns in breast cancer tissue,” Su adds.
“Finding a single gene, or protein instigated by a gene, that
would be a clear signal of early cancer isn’t likely, but I’m
confident that we will be able to identify a set of proteins
and genes that when found in a woman’s blood will signal
an early breast cancer.” And Su believes the twin genes she is
scrutinizing are likely candidates to offer an opportunity for
protective intervention or even the promise of ultimate cure.

LIGHT
REFLECTING LIFE
An engineering
marvel has
been crafted from tiny strands of pure glass. The bundled
fibers transmit and receive light embedded with reams of
information that travel miles across communication cables
or move just lifesaving millimeters.
In the last several decades, scientists have harnessed
the physics of reflected light to create imaginative optical
technology. Fiber optics has evolved into a new generation
of communications devices—from cable television to the
Internet. Now the energy housed in light is being captured
for medical application, with some revolutionary results.
Dr. Vadim Backman, a biomedical engineer at
Northwestern University, is leading a talented team of
investigators studying the broad use of optical technology
in disease detection. One critical project underway may
hold the key to colorectal cancer early detection.
Backman and CRPF fellowship recipient Dr. Young
Kim have collaborated with clinician Dr. Hemant Roy to
test a new diagnostic tool. It uses light and capitalizes on a
well-known biological phenomenon called the “field effect”
to create a non-invasive and cost-effective tool to detect
polyps, growths on the lining of the colon that can become
cancerous tumors.
“The field effect refers to the fact that when cancer
or precancerous cells exist in one small area of tissue in
an organ, there are subtle changes throughout the tissue,”
Backman explains. “We coupled this naturally occurring
effect with the knowledge that reflected light can capture
enormous amounts of data, and we have utilized both of
these factors to create a system that will reveal early changes
in cells and tissue.”
In Backman’s technique, called EBS or backscattering
spectroscopy, light is sent into the colon through a fiber
optic probe inserted just at the rectum and no further. But
the light that emanates from the probe is sensitive enough
to collect millions of bits of information from throughout
the colon and is then reflected back through a signal. A
computer then analyzes this light spectrum. In theory, if a
polyp or an early cancer exists deep within the colon and far
from the light source, subtle tissue changes will be revealed
in the collected data.
“THIS
TECHNIQUE MAY
JUST OFFER THEM AN EASY
ALTERNATIVE AND HELP
DECREASE THE BURDEN OF
COLORECTAL CANCER IN
THIS COUNTRY.”
Dr. Vadim Backman
So far the theory has proven remarkably correct.
EBS was used on 350 patients about to undergo colonoscopy
and correctly predicted the presence of colon polyps in all
43 patients whose colonoscopy confirmed that diagnosis.
“The information provided by the light is far more sensitive
in predicting very early cell changes than a tissue sample,”
Backman adds.
Now armed with a large grant from the National
Cancer Institute, Backman is studying EBS in nearly 2,000
patients from across the country. “I am hopeful that EBS will
prove to be an effective tool that will increase colorectal screening
rates. With so many baby boomers coming of age, millions of
Americans are at risk for colorectal cancer, but because of embarrassment and the difficult preparation for most tests, only a small
percentage will get the recommended screening they need,”
Backman says. “This technique may just offer them an easy
alternative and help decrease the burden of colorectal cancer in
this country.”

ANTICANCER
ANTIBODY
Eighteen-year-old
Erin
Siegel had big dreams, a razor sharp mind and limited
resources. When a presidential scholarship made college a
reality, the Phoenix native set her sights on medical school,
until her aptitude for math moved her off course and toward
a fortuitous detour. Now an epidemiologist, Dr. Siegel is
investigating a new cervical cancer early detection tool,
blending the best of medicine with public health to affect
the health and well being of millions of women.
Siegel is a CRPF-funded researcher at the H. Lee
Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa where she is taking up the
charge of her mentor Dr. Anna Giuliano, one of the country’s
foremost cervical cancer researchers whose own career in
cancer prevention began more than a decade ago with a
single CRPF grant. This initial grant helped Dr. Giuliano
develop the methodology and infrastructure to conduct
clinical trials of a recently approved vaccine for human
papillomavirus (HPV), the virus that causes cervical cancer.
“SCREENING
THE BLOOD
FOR THIS ANTIBODY MAY
BECOME AN IMPORTANT
PREDICTOR FOR CERVICAL
CANCER RISK OR EVEN
AN EARLY DETECTION TOOL.”
Dr. Erin Siegel
“It was Dr. Giuliano who encouraged me to work
with her in Arizona, where she was leading a study related
to the high risk of human papillomavirus and cervical cancer
among Hispanic women. And it was my good fortune that
she asked me to move with her to Moffitt. Now I’m heading
up my own study,” Siegel says.
Despite the vaccine’s approval, millions of women
worldwide have already been exposed to the virus and are at
risk, Siegel explains. “While the Pap test can detect abnormal
cells in the cervix, it has limitations. Testing for HPV
infections isn’t a definitive indicator of cervical cancer risk,
either. In many women, the infection simply resolves itself,
posing no threat,” she adds, “and not all women exposed to
high risk strains of the virus get cervical cancer. We need to
identify another marker in the blood to help us narrow the
universe of women exposed to HPV and more accurately
predict which women are at higher risk for cervical cancer.”
Siegel is investigating a single antibody called antiHmdU aAbs, which is the result of damage to cell DNA
caused by unstable oxygen particles. To do this she is
measuring the antibody in samples of blood collected from
284 women who participated in Giuliano’s Young Women’s
Health Study, which looked at HPV infections in hundreds
of women over the course of several years.
“The completed study information and archived
blood samples are tremendous resources for me,” Siegel says.
“I’m testing the samples of women with and without HPV,
looking for a relationship between levels of the antibody and
the infection. I want to determine if there is a difference in
levels of the antibody in women with HPV as compared to
non-infected women and to see whether the antibody level
changes over time in women with an infection that persisted.”
In the end, Siegel hopes to have enough data to support
a clinical trial to be conducted in thousands of women. “When
used in combination with tests already available, screening the
blood for this antibody may become an important predictor for
cervical cancer risk or even an early detection tool,” Siegel says.
“And because this novel antibody is the result of DNA damage
anywhere in the body, it may prove a key marker for the
detection of other cancers, as well.”

This cancer prevention clinical trial will help to
determine whether a dietary intervention with soy protein
for two years following a radical prostatectomy will prevent
recurrence of prostate cancer in men who are at high risk.
Very small, undetectable cancers in the prostate are common
even in middle-aged men. If the ongoing study shows that
soy can prevent recurrence after surgery for prostate cancer,
which would involve the growth of cancer cells that were
not removed by the surgery, then soy is likely to prevent the
further growth of these small primary cancers as well.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CC) are the primary hepatobiliary (liver) carcinomas
with high mortality rates. HCC is one of the most common
malignant tumors and is the leading cause of cancer death
in the world. CC is the second most common primary
hepatobiliary malignancy in adults. However, the exact
molecular mechanism for these cancers is still unclear, and
the clinical outcome remains poor for most patients. Recent
studies show that prostaglandin (PG) metabolism plays an
important role in liver cancer development and growth.
Chang’s research is examining the EP1 receptor, which may
play a role in PG metabolism. Pharmacological agents that
activate or inhibit the receptor will be examined for their
effect on the growth of liver cancer cells in culture and in
mice. In addition, human liver cancer cells and mice with
genetically altered EP1 gene expression will be developed to
analyze the tumor cell proliferation, programmed cell death
and liver cancer development. Results from the proposed
studies will provide important therapeutic implications for
the chemoprevention and treatment of human liver cancers.

The cells that line the colon are unusual because they
are exposed to ingested substances in our diet. These cells
can also be directly influenced by oral medications and this
unique feature offers opportunities for chemoprevention.
Drs. Hebber and Smith are investigating one type of drug,
called “a PPAR-activating drug,” to determine its cancer
preventive abilities. PPARs, or peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptors, are a group of hormone receptors
belonging to the steroid family. Researchers have discovered
that some colon cancer cells have mutant PPARs. PPARactivating drugs, used to treat patients with type 2 diabetes,
have been shown to both protect the hormones and provide
some protection from colorectal cancer in laboratory tests.
But when used on mice with human-inherited colon cancer
(FAP), the drugs actually worsened the tumors. These
researchers hope to discover why this occurs, and who may
benefit from these drugs. This is important not only for
colon cancer patients, but also for more than 1.5 million
patients in United States prescribed supplemental PPAR
drugs in addition to insulin to control diabetes.

Lesbian, gay and bisexual women and men are at risk
for a late diagnosis of cancer because of low cancer screening
rates. Still, little is known about the barriers to cancer
screening in these individuals. Even less is known about how
to increase their cancer-screening behavior. This study will
first adapt an existing computer-based Tailored Intervention
Messaging System (TIMS) cancer screening intervention for
use with these individuals and then pilot test it in a sample
group to determine whether it is feasible, accepted and effective in prompting screening. Results of this study will provide
data that could lead to a large, randomized controlled

The Living in Pink/CRPF Breast Cancer Prevention Grant
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer
death among Americans. Screening is an effective way to
detect the disease early and improve the chance for cure.
Unfortunately, only about half of eligible Americans are
following recommended screening guidelines. Despite a
number of initiatives to improve screening rates, there has
been little success. One promising area not fully explored is
the way health care providers and patients discuss colorectal
cancer screening with each other. In this study, Dr. Ling is
testing a method to improve doctor-patient communication
by encouraging patients to bring up the topic at clinic visits
and by providing an information sheet that patients can
review with their doctors. His theory is that by improving
communication on colorectal cancer screening to patients,
Americans will adopt this cancer prevention behavior and
the incidence of colorectal cancer can be minimized in
this country.
Mammography is currently the most reliable screening
technique used for breast cancer detection. However, this
method of screening has difficulty visualizing masses and
micro-calcifications hidden in dense tissue. Normal tissue,
called anatomical noise, can prevent radiologists from seeing
important changes in dense breast tissue. Acquiring two
views of each breast can help radiologists eliminate this
problem, but taking two views requires two separate,
uncomfortable compressions of the patient’s breast.
Moreover, the image data from the two views cannot be
directly compared. This study is investigating the feasibility
of a new imaging procedure, called Stereo Imaging (SI),
in which two digital radiographic images of the breast are
acquired using a single compression. The SI method
produces three-dimensional X-ray images with stereo views
of the possible breast lesions and has the potential to be
easily translated into clinical settings.

People who have small growths in the colon, called
polyps, are at higher risk of developing colorectal cancer
(CRC) than the average person. For some specific types of
polyps, there is also an increase in risk for the close relatives
of the person with the polyp. But not all polyp patients are
aware of this increased risk for their family members or the
need for close relatives to be screened. This project will
develop materials to be provided by physicians to their polyp
patients to help them communicate the details of their polyp
diagnosis to their relatives. In turn, these relatives can share
the polyp information with their own doctors, and together
they can decide on the best CRC screening approach for
them. Dr. Ling will also examine whether polyp patients are
being advised to make lifestyle changes that can reduce the
risk of developing more polyps in the future.
Georgetown University Medical Center
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most
serious and complicated chronic liver diseases. It ranks fifth
in cancer incidence and causes the death of about half a
million people each year worldwide. The incidence of HCC
in the United States is increasing, most likely due to the rise
of hepatitis C. HCC develops because of complex changes
in genes and in the expression of proteins in the blood.
Drs. An and Goldman believe these proteins may serve as
“markers” that signal HCC and could be used for early
detection. In this study, the researchers hope to identify
these HCC-related proteins and define new methods for
their detection in the blood. This information could lead
to a powerful diagnostic test, which could be used not only
for early detection of HCC, but also for tracking of the
progression of disease and the effectiveness of therapy.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH
¡Celebremos la Vida! has a 12-year history of providing breast and cervical cancer education, screening and early
detection to medically underserved Hispanic women. Since
its inception, the Celebremos program has provided more
than 3,400 screening and diagnostic mammograms and
more than 3,600 Pap tests. In the past year, CRPF staff
partnered with coordinators from the three Celebremos
clinics to give presentations at several professional
conferences, providing an overview of the program and
sharing resources with attendees.
The results from a patient satisfaction survey for the
program were overwhelmingly positive. Over 99 percent of
the women surveyed in 2006 said they planned to return to
the program and that the staff and volunteers were helpful
and communicated very well in their preferred language.
Additionally, the majority of the participants said that they
would recommend the program to a friend and that they
learned “a lot” about cancer prevention during their visit.
During the past year, CRPF funded the planning
and implementation of the Preventorium Demonstration
Project at the Spanish Catholic Center, with Dr. Anna
Maria Izquierdo as the principal investigator. Based on
Dr. Elmer Huerta’s Preventorium (preventive services that
include cancer, diabetes and cholesterol screening) at the
Washington Hospital Center, the project was developed
to determine the possibility of wider application of the
Preventorium concept. The Foundation plans to fund a
second year to collect more data.
In the coming year, CRPF plans to explore the
feasibility of developing a larger health services project
related to “integrated preventive services” that deliver a
mix of screening to increase access to prevention and early
detection services in medically underserved communities.
Expanding the options of one-stop shopping for such
screening may increase public acceptance and use of
screening and provide opportunities for earlier detection
of disease when it is more successfully treated.
Project Early Awareness continued to be a dynamic
program educating Washington, D.C., public high school
girls about the importance of breast health. More than
2,000 students participated in the education sessions and
were encouraged to share the health information with their
family members and caregivers. A new video and expanded
skills-based curriculum neared completion and will be
implemented in the 2006-2007 school year. CRPF and
Howard University plan to market and disseminate the
materials at the national level.
Since October 2005, the new CRPF-funded George
Washington University Mammovan with its ComputerAided Detection (CAD) technology has been on the streets,
providing mammography services to workplaces and underserved communities. This state-of-the-art program was
made possible by a generous grant from the Amgen
Foundation. All women screened on the van receive followup treatment regardless of their ability to pay. Celebrating
its 10-year anniversary, the George Washington University
Mammovan has provided more than 21,800 mammograms
and diagnosed 73 breast cancer cases in the Washington,
D.C. area.
In June, Wal-Mart underwrote a day of mammograms on
the CRPF/GW Mammovan at the Spanish Catholic Center
in Washington, D.C.
EDUCATION
The 2006 national Dialogue for Action in
Colorectal Cancer Screening conference had 235 participants—the largest in the history of the national Dialogue.
The focus of the conference was to take stock of initiatives
to increase colorectal cancer screening since 1999 and to
look forward to the future of colorectal cancer screening as
part of primary and preventive care. Ken Bentsen, former
United States congressman from Texas, delivered the
keynote address.
Colon has also been part of health fairs in Atlanta, Omaha,
Southern California and Washington, D.C.
The Buddy Bracelet initiative built on its success
from 2005. CRPF distributed nearly 200,000 bracelets
nationwide, bringing the three-year total of bracelets
distributed to over 400,000. This year, Buddy Bracelets
were sent to all 29,000 members of the Oncology Nursing
Society. Additionally, the tags attached to the Buddy Bracelet
outlining screening guidelines were translated and made
available in Spanish.
Leaders in the colorectal cancer community convened
at the annual Dialogue for Action in Colorectal Cancer
Awareness meeting. Pictured from left to right are

and Carolyn Aldigé.
Once again, CRPF recognized leaders in cancer
prevention at the 2006 awards dinner with Cancer
Prevention Laurels for three outstanding individuals:
Linda Burhansstipanov, DrPH, (Cherokee Nation of
Oklahoma), received the Cancer Prevention Laurel for
Outstanding Public Service; Harold Freeman, M.D., was
awarded the Cancer Prevention Laurel for Outstanding
National Leadership; and the Cancer Prevention Laurel for
Outstanding Advocacy was presented to Barry Stein. An
honorary Laurel for Educational Outreach was presented to
Warner Brothers character Foghorn Leghorn, the star of the
Jay Monahan Center for Gastrointestinal Health’s ingenious
colorectal cancer promotional campaign.
Dialogue for Action has now taken root in 13 states.
This past year, CRPF worked with California, Massachusetts,
New York and Virginia to convene state-level conferences
dedicated to implementing colorectal cancer screening
objectives in their respective state cancer plans. Previous
Dialogues have taken place in Arizona/New Mexico,
Colorado, Maryland, Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio, Utah
and West Virginia.
The Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation
spearheaded the seventh annual National Colorectal Cancer
Awareness Month campaign. The Foundation, by utilizing
the strengths and reach of 57 collaborating partner organizations, was very successful in reaching the public with the
message that colorectal cancer is “Preventable, Treatable
and Beatable!”
The inflatable and interactive Super Colon exhibit
traveled to four cities during its official 2006 tour, which
included stops in Baltimore; Columbus, Ohio, the Carnegie
Science Center in Pittsburgh; and the University of New
Mexico Health Sciences Center in Albuquerque. The Super
continued its partnership with the Step-Up Women’s
Network and Merck & Co. on a public awareness campaign
called Make the Connection to teach women about the
connection between cervical cancer and the human papillomavirus (HPV). With stops in 10 cities in 2005, including
Tampa, Denver, Philadelphia, San Diego, Houston, Atlanta,
Chicago, Miami, Cleveland and Irving, Texas, Make the
Connection partnered with cancer centers and hosted events
at local malls, where women and their daughters were invited to make a “Make the Connection” bracelet while learning
about cervical cancer. Through the Internet and media outreach, more than 2 million bead bracelets have been ordered.
In January 2006, the campaign launched a nationwide
public service announcement campaign featuring actress
Elizabeth Rohm, which reached millions of people through
television, print and radio broadcasts. Another PSA focused
specifically on African-American women. The campaign
continued on to Sacramento, Minneapolis, Nashville, St.
Louis and Phoenix where CRPF recognized a local cancer
center and a “hero” from each center who dedicated their
time and energy to educating women about cervical cancer
prevention. Each cancer center received a $10,000 grant to
help support cervical cancer education programs.
A landmark third annual Lung Cancer Workshop,
sponsored by CRPF, was held to facilitate the use of spiral
CT scanning for early lung cancer detection and accelerate
progress in the development of new and effective therapies
for the disease. The Foundation has taken the lead in this
critical national endeavor to reduce the staggering toll lung
cancer takes on men and women in the United States. The
workshop brought together the key players in lung cancer
early detection: the pharmaceutical and medical imaging
industries, federal policymakers and regulators, and advocates and researchers from across the country. As a result,
data sharing between medical centers utilizing CT scanning
is already occurring, helping to speed the widespread use of
the technology for people at high risk for lung cancer.
Finally, the Foundation co-sponsored the annual
Summit Series on Cancer Clinical Trials, a venue to educate the public about the value of participation in clinical
trials, which are essential to improving prevention, early
detection and treatment of cancer. The Summits have provided a platform for patients and patient advocacy organizations, health care professionals, cancer researchers, managed
care organizations and third party payers, public and private
funding agencies, and the pharmaceutical and biotechnology
industries to discuss ways of improving cancer clinical trials.
As a result, public awareness campaigns have been launched,
clinical trial design has improved, and six working groups
have been established to examine everything from insurance
reimbursement to improving information dissemination to
patients participating in clinical research. Since the Summit
Series began, participation in cooperative clinical group trials
has grown by 30 percent.
Congressional Families Action for Cancer
Awareness, directed by Lisa McGovern, spouse of
Congressman James McGovern (MA-3), held two “lunch
and learn” seminars for members of Congress and their
spouses. These events offer an opportunity for them to learn
about cancer topics so they can bring the information back
to their districts. CRPF board member Dr. Jim Mulshine, of
Rush University Medical Center, discussed new innovations
in lung cancer research, prevention and early detection. In
addition, Congressional spouse Pricilla Houghton spoke
about her own battle with the disease. Dr. Darrell Rigel,
of New York University Medical Center, spoke about the
importance of skin cancer prevention and early detection
and congressional spouse and CRPF board member Marcelle
Leahy spoke of her diagnosis and battle with skin cancer.
This past year the Congressional Families program
also helped numerous spouses place op-eds in their local
papers on a variety of cancer-related issues including lung,
breast, cervical and skin cancer. The program also assisted
spouses with various cancer awareness activities going on
in their districts including state fair booths and outreach
to schools.
The 13th annual Action for Cancer Awareness
Awards Luncheon honored Cecile Tauzin, Karyn Greer,
Deirdre Imus and the Bristol-Myers Squibb Tour of Hope.
The program is underwritten by Bristol-Myers Squibb
Oncology and SBC Communications and luncheon
sponsor Roche.
and Healthy South Carolina, a statewide initiative by South
Carolina First Lady Jenny Sanford, sponsored the Have Fun
and Stay Safe in the South Carolina Sun Poster Contest,
during which third and fourth graders were asked artistically
portray how they stayed active and safe in the sun during
the summer months.
POLICY AND ADVOCACY
Engaging legislators, lawmakers and the public in
policy discussions about issues ranging from medical research
to access to preventive care is central to the Foundation’s
mission. The Foundation played a leadership role in issues
critical to disease prevention that were debated by policymakers in 2006, including passage of legislation strengthening the current policy regarding embryonic stem cell
Derick Lindsey, 17, is a
pediatric cancer survivor
who spoke on behalf of
CRPF at the U.S. Capitol in
support of embryonic stem
cell research and how the
research could potentially
lead to prevention of
cancer. Derick was joined
by Members of Congress,
advocates representing
diverse disease communities, media and the public
at the May 2006 event, which eventually led to the vote
in the U.S. Senate in support of expanding current policy
governing stem cell research.
research, approval and coverage determinations for the first
vaccine against the human papillomavirus (HPV), increases
in the medical research budget at the National Institutes of
Health (NIH) and National Cancer Institute (NCI), access
to cancer screening, improvements to the Medicare drug
benefit and the Medicare program, and improvements in
our clinical trials system.
CRPF works both independently and with other
members of the cancer and health communities to educate
our lawmakers and the public about the importance of
prevention research, legislation to encourage screening,
disease prevention and healthy lifestyles, and access to care.
The Foundation actively engages the public through
outreach to its volunteer prevention advocates and online
communications regarding health advocacy to make cancer
prevention a public policy priority. For more information

Hope Street Kids.
In June Hope
Street Kids held its Seventh Annual “Swinging for Caroline”
Golf and Tennis Invitational. The event was held at the
Army Navy Country Club in Arlington, Va., and raised
$600,000. Since 2000 the event has raised over $3.3 million
in support of the Hope Street Kids pediatric cancer research
awards program. This year the event sold out with more
than 200 participants and guests, attracting members of
Congress and the administration, as well as prominent
Washingtonians.
The Caroline Pryce Walker Memorial Event has
proven to be remarkably successful, raising over $330,000 in
cash and in-kind donations last year. Held at the Columbus
Zoo and Aquarium in Powell, Ohio, the event drew a
record-breaking crowd of 1,300 and featured live bands,
great food and, of course zoo animals.
This was a year of many firsts for Tracy’s Kids.
The long-time, CRPF-funded art therapy program at the
Georgetown University Lombardi Cancer Center had its
first expansion, to the Children’s National Medical Center
in Washington, D.C. Under the guidance of Lombardi’s
program director and art therapist Tracy Councill, children
at both centers have the support they need to deal with the
emotional stress and trauma of cancer and its treatment in
a fun, comfortable environment, and to lead active and
fulfilling lives once they are cancer free.
Hollywood glamour occupied center stage on Feb. 15
when the red carpet was rolled out for the 1st Annual
“And the Winner is … Tracy’s Kids” as hundreds of
Washingtonians gathered for an evening of film and fun to
benefit Tracy’s Kids. Red-carpet interviews were conducted
by Jack valenti and critic Joel Siegel.
The evening raised more than $400,000 and was
generously underwritten by the Walt Disney Company, and
major sponsors Chevron and the Pharmaceutical Research
Manufacturers of America. The event would not have been
possible without the leadership of Matt Gerson, Tracy’s Kids
founder and CRPF board member, and Preston Padden,
of the Walt Disney Company.

MORE SPECIAL EVENTS
The Foundation is grateful to the many community
friends nationwide who designate us as a beneficiary of their
fundraising events each year.
One community fundraiser decided to take his cause
to new heights around the world – literally. Scott Borden, a
recent college graduate and rock climbing enthusiast, racked
his brain trying to think of a way to honor his friend and
fellow climber, Mark Grundon, a testicular cancer survivor.
The answer was obvious: Take a rock climbing trip
around the world and call it Climb for a Cause and a Cure.
With each climb, Scott collected pledges from friends, family
and other sponsors. For four months, Scott and other
climbing partners scaled cliffs and peaks in Argentina,
Mexico, Thailand and Canada. In the end, many of the
pledges converted to donations to the Cancer Research and
Prevention Foundation in honor of Mark Grundon and the
Climb for a Cause and a Cure.
Rock climber Scott Borden traveled the world “climbing
for a cause and a cure,” raising funds for CRPF.
During fiscal year 2006, other events that designated
the Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation as the
beneficiary included the Second Annual Michele and
Drew Figdor Texas Hold’em Tournament in New York;
the Scope It Out 5k Walk/Run for Colon Cancer Awareness
in Washington, D.C.; the Living in Pink Breast Cancer
Research Foundation Luncheon in Washington, D.C., the
Chicago One Club for One Cure Golf Outing; the John
Harper Winestock in California; Ron Ruffennach Golf
Classic in Texas; the Great American Walkathon in Maine;
and the Sharon Taylor Shopping Benefit in Pennsylvania.

Make a Difference in Preventing Cancer
Through the generous support of its donors over the last 20 years, the Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation
has been able to provide more than $88 million in support of cancer prevention research, education and community outreach
programs nationwide. This support has played a pivotal role in developing a body of knowledge that is the basis for important
prevention and early detection strategies.
Nearly 10 million cancer survivors are living proof of the value of cancer research and education. But cancer remains the
leading cause of death of Americans under the age of 85. With an estimated 1.3 million new cases of cancer from cancer this year
alone, clearly much more needs to be accomplished. There are many ways in which you can support the Foundation’s work.
UNRESTRICTED GIFTS
The Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation relies
on unrestricted gifts to sustain its day-to-day commitments and
allow our board of directors and scientific review panel the
opportunity to channel resources into those research and education efforts that are most promising. An unrestricted gift may be
designated for a specific program or type of cancer research.
MEMORIAL AND TRIBUTE GIFTS
Memorial and tribute gifts are a very special way to
honor a loved one, friend or co-worker. The Cancer Research
and Prevention Foundation will send a card to the family of the
deceased or to the honoree acknowledging your thoughtful
donation. We are pleased that many couples ask that contributions
be made to the Foundation in lieu of wedding gifts.
PREVENTION PIONEERS
Prevention Pioneers is a monthly giving program designed
to make contributing to the Foundation fast and efficient.
Secure, automatic donations are drawn from credit, debit or
bank accounts and go right to work funding cancer prevention
research and education programs.
SPONSORSHIPS AND SPECIAL EVENTS
Many corporate and foundation contributors to the
Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation support our work
through annual or endowment gifts, cause-related marketing
initiatives, program grants and sponsored research fellowships.
They also support the Foundation as an underwriter or sponsor
of special events such as our Annual Spring Gala, Sporting Clays
Invitational or the Capitol Hill Texas Hold’em Poker Tournament.
There are numerous levels of sponsorship for each event, all
including sponsor recognition opportunities. In addition,
each year numerous friends and community partners designate
the Foundation as the beneficiary of their fundraising events.
PLANNED GIFTS
Planned gifts are an easy way to support the Cancer
Research and Prevention Foundation while providing yourself
and your family with possible tax benefits and income. They
allow for long-range planning and guarantee funding for the
Foundation’s research and education efforts.
RESEARCH ENDOWMENT FUND
A gift to the Research Endowment Fund allows the
Foundation to ensure lifesaving cancer prevention research
continues in perpetuity. You may make an endowment gift to
this fund in your name, or in the name of a loved one you wish
to honor or memorialize.
WORKPLACE GIVING
The Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation is
generously supported through workplace donations, which are a
simple way to make cash gifts through payroll deduction plans.
You can designate the Foundation through your company’s
Charitable Employee Giving Program, the Combined Federal
Campaign or the United Way Program (CFC Campaign No.
9504). Many companies match or double charitable donations
made by employees through employee matching gifts programs.
Contact your human resources department to find out if the
Foundation would qualify for a matching gift from your employer.
