Davis, president of Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC,Yoel Sadovsky, MD, scientific director of Magee-Womens Research Institute, and W. Allen Hogge, MD, chairman of the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences of the University of Pittsburgh Photo taken by Mark Bolster A t Magee-Womens Research Institute (MWRI), something incredible is being uncovered in every laboratory, by every scientist, on every day. There’s a spirit here…part curiosity, part fascination, part determination. Individually and collectively, researchers at MWRI are changing the shape of medicine for women and infants. Their incredible work is impacting lives today, tomorrow and well into the future. As recently as 20 years ago, all medical research focused on men’s issues. With the establishment of MWRI, the nation’s first research institute focused exclusively on the health of women and infants, the breadth of medical research expanded. Convinced that the differences in genders exist on every level, including cellular and molecular, the MWRI team established a new standard for research dedicated to the medical issues facing women and infants. Scientists explore problems such as gynecologic cancers, infectious diseases, genetic conditions and autoimmune deficiencies and then translate their findings into more effective prevention, detection and treatment for patients. The transfer of knowledge from bench to bedside has improved the outcomes for patients at our sister institution, Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC. In fact, U.S. News & World Report recently ranked Magee’s gynecology program No. 6 in the country. As MWRI advances research, Magee-Womens Hospital advances care. 2 www.mwrif.org It’s said that success breeds success. That might be part of the reason why MWRI continues to attract the world’s most respected and renowned researchers specializing in women’s and infants’ issues. As the MWRI team works together to find the keys that will unlock medical advancements, patients in our region, in our country and throughout the world continue to reap the benefits. Some of the current research initiatives taking place at MWRI include: • Researchers in Development & Regenerative Medicine are accelerating discoveries in infertility treatments, including preservation techniques for men, women, boys and girls who must undergo cancer treatments. • Collaborating with physicians and scientists at neighboring Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic, MWRI researchers are studying postpartum depression and the impact of antidepressants on maternal functioning and infant development. • The Microbicide Trial Network, which is housed at MWRI, is working to change the face of HIV by reducing through transmission the development of topical and/or oral products. Thanks to your support, MWRI has touched the lives of countless women and infants throughout the Pittsburgh region and beyond. You have helped to ensure that the discoveries made at the laboratory bench are translated into advancements at patients’ bedsides. The researchers at MWRI are challenging conventional thinking and finding better methods of treatment and prevention. Despite many advances, they never lose sight of the reality that their work is far from being complete. There are more questions to be asked, more theories to be challenged, more hope to be developed. With your continued support, MWRI will remain at the forefront of women’s and infants’ health research, an unparalleled research institute where something incredible is waiting to be discovered. Thank you.

In many cases, these infants are born to mothers with problem pregnancies such as diabetes, preeclampsia, multiple fetuses, or conditions known to increase the risk of complications for the infant or mother. It wasn’t until the recognition of Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) — or perinatology — as a subspecialty of obstetrics and gynecology and the development of advanced testing that physicians could understand the mechanisms by which such conditions affected mothers and their unborn children. “Prior to the early 1970s, we could not image the fetus or determine how healthy or mature it was,” explains Steve N. Caritis, MD, professor, Obstetrics and Gynecology.“We had very little understanding of how maternal diseases affected fetal health. All that changed dramatically during the 70’s. Technological advances revolutionized the field.” The Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at MageeWomens Hospital of UPMC was established at Magee in 1975, just one year after the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology recognized it as a subspecialty. Over the next 15 years, Magee’s MFM program grew to one of national prominence. Physicians in the division were conducting research on maternal diseases and fetal physiology, providing complete prenatal care to women with challenging pregnancies and Steve N. Caritis, MD providing consultation on difficult cases to obstetricians. Clinical research at Magee advanced tremendously in 1986, when the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development created the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Units (MFMU) Network, a multicenter, perinatal research network. Dr. Caritis was the Principal Investigator from Magee in this network and has been with the MFMU Network since its inception. He is the only lead scientist who has been included in the Network since its establishment. Dr. Hyagriv Simhan has been the Co-Principal Investigator for the MFMU for the last six years. Inclusion in the MFMU Network is highly competitive, as it has become the premier clinical research entity in the world focusing on pregnancy. “If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.” 4 www.mwrif.org Isaac Newton So grateful for the care and concern they received [from Magee’s Maternal-Fetal Medicine Department], the Orsattis struggled to translate the word “Magee” into their native Italian and Spanish tongues. “Had we been able to find a way, Lucas would have been named for Magee,” Mark Orsatti says. Membership in the MFMU requires a new grant to be submitted every five years. Centers are chosen based on research experience, leadership, experience in multicenter clinical research, state-of-the-art facilities and subspecialty support. There are only 14 centers from around the country currently included in the network. Clinical research at Magee has advanced beyond the MFMU. Dr Caritis is also the lead scientist on another NIH-sponsored multicenter research network, the Obstetrical-Fetal Pharmacology Research Units (OPRU) Network. This Network is unique in its focus on pharmacology during pregnancy. The four sites in the Network study how pregnancy modifies the metabolism and elimination of medications taken during pregnancy. Pregnant women have been totally ignored in this regard and most of the time receive the same dose of medication as men and non-pregnant women. Pregnancy has a dramatic effect on drug handling, necessitating special dosing consideration. Recently, the NIH funded another large multicenter clinical research network to study first-time pregnant women (NuMOM2B). Dr. Simhan is the lead investigator from Magee. Entry into this network was highly competitive and Dr. Simhan has had a major role in developing the protocol that will be implemented across the eight centers involved in the network. Numerous other investigators in the Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine have been successful in clinical research and have helped to enhance the research reputation of the scientific endeavors at Magee. Basic and translational research also began modestly at Magee, but major advances were made with the construction of the Magee-Womens Research Institute in 1990. “Irma Goertzen, who was the president of Magee at the time, supported the building of a MageeWomens Research Institute,” Dr. Caritis remembers. “The Research Institute broadened both our perspective and opportunities. Our clinical care and clinical research have always been superb. The Research Institute has enhanced our ability to also perform basic and translational research. Very few programs can succeed in clinical, translational and basic research, but the program at Magee has. “In order to be successful at research,” Dr. Caritis continues, “infrastructure is needed. Resources must be in place that allow researchers to pose questions Hyagriv N. Simhan, and to have the means of MD, MSCR answering the questions. We have that kind of infrastructure here at Magee.” Over the years, Magee’s MFM division has evolved into a world-class center with experts in the field of preterm birth, pharmacology in pregnancy, preeclampsia, placental function and fetal growth. In July 2009, leadership of Magee’s MFM division transitioned from Dr. Caritis to Hyagriv N. Simhan, MD, MS. It was a seamless, collaborative transition rooted in respect and trust. “Hy is the best person in the country for this job. He has the energy, the expertise and the tools to take the division further,” says Dr. Caritis. Dr. Caritis, who directs the MFM Fellowship Training Program, is available to provide support to his protégé when necessary. In fact, Drs. Caritis and Simhan are collaborators on a number of research projects not just at Magee but with researchers across the country and around the world. “This program is unparalleled. There is no better training program than this one,” says Dr. Simhan. “To raise the quality of health outcomes for pregnant women and their newborns meaningfully requires both clinical care and research to be integrated and excellent. “I think that the sky’s the limit,“ Dr. Simhan continues. “I don’t think there is an area in perinatal research that we can’t do, and do better than anyone else.” Dr. Caritis seconds that sentiment. “Even though we have come a long way since 1975, we’re nowhere near fulfilling our potential. With the talent and resources available to us, the possibilities are endless.” To learn more about and to support the research, patient care and education at Magee, visit www.mwrif.org. 5 MWRI RESEARCHER DEVELOPING TECHNIQUES TO PRESERVE FERTILITY Of the many functional casualties of cancer, the ability to conceive a child may be among the more heart wrenching. Kyle Orwig, PhD, director of the Fertility Preservation in Pittsburgh (FPP) program at MageeWomens Research Institute (MWRI), is working with his colleagues to educate patients and their physicians about the reproductive risks of cancer treatments and options for preserving fertility. For some patients (e.g., pre-pubertal boys and girls) there are no established clinical options to preserve fertility. So, Dr. Orwig and his team are developing new technologies to preserve and restore fertility. The FPP program comprises a multidisciplinary consortium of researchers, clinicians, ethicists, administrators and trainees within and outside the University of Pittsburgh community. Together with colleagues in pediatric oncology, the FPP program has established a fertility preservation clinic in the Center for Fertility and Reproductive Endocrinology (CFRE) of Magee-Womens Hospital to counsel patients and their physicians about the reproductive risks of their cancer treatment. When possible, patients are scheduled for fertility-sparing procedures before they initiate cancer treatment. For patients who have no option to preserve fertility, the team has obtained IRB approval to cryopreserve ovarian and testicular tissues so that this tissue will be available to the patient when new fertility technologies emerge from the research pipeline. Dr. Orwig is in the process of setting up a Kyle Orwig, PhD gonadal tissue cryopreservation laboratory in the CFRE and is training the clinical lab staff in gonadal tissue processing and freezing techniques. Dr. Orwig’s team is actively engaged in developing new fertility technologies. One study involves removing and preserving spermatogonial stem cells from the testes of a boy or man before he undergoes cancer treatment. The cells can then be transplanted to restore spermatogenesis after the malignant disease is cured. Dr. Orwig’s approach has been successful in the laboratory and he is working to translate spermatogonial stem cell transplantation to the clinic for humans. “By preserving testicular tissue prior to treatment, male cancer survivors may one day have access to new fertility-restoring options,” Dr. Orwig says. “The discussion and decision to preserve gonadal tissue or cells should occur prior to cancer treatment because some treatments can irreversibly destroy fertility, including the potentially therapeutic stem cells. Therefore, it is important to facilitate discussions among patients, cancer doctors, reproductive specialists and scientists about reproductive risks and realistic options on the fertilitypreservation frontier. “Infertility is an incredibly desperate concern for some people,” Dr. Orwig explains. “Reproductive issues are significant contributors to the perceived quality of life for cancer survivors.” With initiatives to provide fertility preservation for women, girls, men and boys, the FPP program may be the most comprehensive and integrated fertility-preservation center in the country.

In subSaharan Africa, which accounts for most new cases of the disease, the difference is even greater. Nearly 13 million women live with HIV compared to 9 million men. The typical victims of HIV in Africa are not sex workers or women with high numbers of sexual partners as many believe; they are women in a stable relationship whose husbands were infected with HIV prior to marriage or have acquired HIV outside of the relationship. Such sexual “rights,” social pressures and societal “norms” are what drive Sharon Hillier, PhD, principal investigator of the Microbicides Trial Network (MTN). The MTN is an HIV/AIDS clinical trials network that was established in 2006 by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the National Institute of Mental Health and the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human 8 www.mwrif.org Development, all of which are part of the U.S. National Institutes of Health. The mission of the MTN is to conduct clinical trials that will lead to the licensure of products that can be used to prevent HIV infections in women and men. Based at Magee-Womens Research Institute (MWRI) and Sharon Hillier, PhD the University of Pittsburgh, MTN oversees 13 clinical trial units at 20 locations in seven countries, including India, Durban and the United States. The network has gained worldwide attention for groundbreaking work with microbicides — products that are applied vaginally or rectally or taken orally to prevent HIV. “Even though we are now 30 years into the HIV/ AIDS epidemic, the only strategies we have available After being diagnosed with HIV from her 22-year addiction to drugs and alcohol, Sheila Taylor began treatment, educated herself about HIV and prayed. “I learned to like myself a lot. HIV is not who I am, it’s what I have,” she says. Thanks to the care she received at Magee, Sheila later delivered a beautiful, healthy, HIV-negative baby girl, aptly named Precious. for prevention of new infections are condoms and male circumcision. A vaccine appears to be years away,” explains Dr. Hillier, who is also a senior investigator at MWRI. “By utilizing efficient, scientifically rigorous and ethically sound clinical studies, the development of new biomedical approaches for HIV prevention is within reach.” The majority of the network’s studies evaluate microbicides that women apply vaginally to prevent HIV, but the MTN recently expanded research to include the assessment of microbicides when applied rectally in both men and women. The team also is exploring whether HIV treatment medications known as antiretroviral drugs can protect a person from contracting HIV. And in the summer of 2010, the breadth of Dr. Hillier’s work further expanded when she and her co-investigators received an $11.8 million grant to develop small microbicide films, similar to breath strips, which could greatly decrease the cost of providing doses of microbicides for daily use. The team hopes the films will be ready to transition into the first evaluations in humans within a year. A recent study demonstrates the promise of using antiretroviral drugs for prevention of HIV in women. A study team showed that among 899 women from Durban and a neighboring community in South Africa, there were 39 percent fewer HIV infections among women who used the gel containing tenofovir before and after sex when compared to those who used a gel with no active ingredients. “When it comes to HIV prevention, the road is long, and there are always mountains to climb, but I firmly believe that microbicide research will change the face of the global HIV epidemic in much the same way that effective contraceptives changed women’s lives 50 years ago,” says Dr. Hillier. “We have an unprecedented opportunity to demonstrate that a product can offer both women and men an accessible, inexpensive and acceptable way of decreasing their risk of HIV regardless of where they live.” To learn more about and to support the research, patient care and education at Magee, visit www.mwrif.org.

Prompted to visit by her friend Teresa Heinz, Mrs. Brown knew that MWRI was a critical stop on her tour of the Steel City. The Browns were struck by tragedy in 2001 after losing their daughter, Jennifer, who died only 10 days after being born seven weeks premature. This heartbreaking incident left them wanting to better understand and prevent the problems that afflicted Jennifer, making the groundbreaking pregnancy and neonatal research being conducted in MWRI’s laboratories of great interest to Mrs. Brown. Driven by their thirst for knowledge and desire to help save other newborn lives, the Browns established the Jennifer Brown Research Laboratory in 2004, based at the Queen’s Medical Research Institute at the University of Edinburgh. The lab focuses on preventing death and long-term handicaps that may result from impaired development, premature birth and other neonatal complications. Mrs. Brown was accompanied to MWRI by Teresa Heinz; Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell; Jeffrey Romoff, CEO of UPMC; city leaders; and guests of Reed Smith, who hosted the event. Sarah Brown and Yoel Sadovsky, MD, scientific director of Magee-Womens Research Institute Photo taken by John McCaulley As Mrs. Brown stated in her blog after her visit, “It was inspiring to see the good work that is taking place at Magee to help women in pregnancy, premature newborns and long-term protection of women’s health. I believe that it is so valuable to scientists around the globe to share their knowledge and expertise.” MWRI hopes that Mrs. Brown’s visit will lay the groundwork for a partnership between themselves and the Jennifer Brown Research Laboratory.

Thanks to generous philanthropic gifts, two new lectureships are a valued addition to Research Day at Magee, an annual event where fellows and residents of Magee-Womens Research Institute (MWRI) and Magee-Womens Hospital’s Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences (OB/GYN/ RS) gather to showcase their work through oral and poster presentations. With a vital interest in supporting research and nurturing young scientists, MWRIF Board chairwoman Peggy Joy provided funding for the first new lectureship, titled The Margaret Prine Joy Lecture in Reproductive Sciences. Joy’s involvement with MWRI since the late 1990s fostered her desire to make an investment in the mission of the Research Institute. The second new lectureship, Celebration of Life: A Lectureship Honoring Mothers, was funded by the chair of the OB/GYN/RS Department, W. Allen Hogge, MD, and his wife, Joan. The couple were searching for a way to honor their own mothers along with the many mothers and families of Magee. The Hogges’ gift will enable the nurturing of other promising young staff at both MWRI and the hospital. This year, the lectureships funded keynote speakers Fred Turek, MD, of Northwestern University and Mark Phillippe, MD, of the University of Vermont College of Medicine to share their expertise at Research Day. Through the generosity and commitment of both Ms. Joy and the Hogges, these lectureships will help to inspire residents and researchers at Magee for years to come. 11 Stylish Fundraiser Designed by Magee Physician Specializing in gynecologic oncology, Joseph Kelley, MD, director of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology of the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences at MageeWomens Hospital, sees firsthand how cancer affects women’s lives. Inspired by the strength and determination of the patients he works with, Dr. Kelley has taken up another successful occupation: fashion designer. “Ties (Totes and Scarves) to the Cure” is a line of stylish accessories including four different colored ties, a fashionable scarf and tote bag designed by Dr. Kelley and Vineyard Vines. Proceeds benefit breast and ovarian cancer research to save the lives of women affected by cancer in western Pennsylvania and beyond. Magee Society to be Launched During Hospital’s Centennial For 100 years, Magee-Womens Hospital has been an integral part of western Pennsylvania. Long respected for its gynecologic and obstetric care, Magee has evolved to become a national leader in providing comprehensive medical care. In 2011, during Magee’s centennial, MageeWomens Research Institute & Foundation will introduce a means for people to invest in the work of both the hospital and of Magee-Womens Research 12 www.mwrif.org Institute (MWRI). The Magee Society is a giving club that will enable donors to ensure that the work of Magee and MWRI continues well into the next century. Based on the level of support, donors will receive special expressions of appreciation, from invitations to private events to recognition in publications. But more importantly, these leadership gifts will help benefit the world-renowned research and patient care carried out at Magee and MWRI. Cindy and Christopher Hughes: Moving Past Tragedy With two healthy children at home, Cindy and Christopher Hughes were ready to bring another child into their life. The couple was devastated, though, when Cindy’s two subsequent pregnancies failed. Despite their experience, they were touched by the care, dedication and compassion they received from the staff at Magee. As time passed, Cindy and Chris wanted to turn their tragedy into something positive in remembrance of their unborn children. The Hughes chose to open a life insurance policy supporting resident training education in Magee’s Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Services. The need to continue a relationship with Magee was important to the family, since they felt that a bond had been established beyond that of a medical center providing a service. According to Christopher, “Giving to Magee was easy — they earned it every step of the way. Now we feel like we’re part of not only the Hughes family, but also the Magee family.” Debra Limbach: A Sisterly Bond in the Face of Cancer When Debra Limbach learned in 2005 that she had lymphoma of the cervix, the experts at MageeWomens Hospital were there to help, just as they had helped her newborn son in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit 16 years prior. Her cancer was extremely rare, but Joseph Kelley, MD, had encountered it before and was successful in helping Debra become cancer-free. Throughout her battle, Debra’s dedicated sisterin-law Elsa was there with a helping hand. “I wanted to do something meaningful for Debra. She didn’t need another pair of shoes or a purse,” said Elsa. “Her only request was help for increased research into her condition.” Investing in the place that had saved the lives of both her sister-in-law and her nephew made perfect sense. Elsa made a donation to Magee-Womens Research Institute & Foundation (MWRIF) in honor of Debra to support women’s gynecologic cancer research. Over the years, Elsa has continued to support MWRIF. Debra and Elsa’s sisterly commitment and dedication support a great cause that helps families everywhere. Debra (left) and sister-in-law, Elsa, have utilized their strong sisterly bond in supporting women’s gynecological cancer research at Magee.

Having that kind of head start is unbelievable, and it made a difference in my life.The program was certainly the keystone experience in my life that led me to where I am today. For that, I am forever thankful,” says Vivek Verma. Man Bikes 325 Miles to Raise Money for Breast Cancer Awareness, Education On June 24, 2010, Joe Scarpaci biked into Magee-Womens Hospital, marking the end of a 325mile four-day trek from Blacksburg,Va., to Pittsburgh. Every push of the pedals along the way was fueled by the memory of his mother, Josie, who lost her battle to breast cancer in 1998. Joe’s ride raised proceeds for the Josie Scarpaci Breast Health Access Fund, which was established through Magee-Womens Foundation. The fund allows Magee to provide a comprehensive resource binder to newly diagnosed breast cancer patients. To date, nearly $25,000 has been raised in Josie’s name. Through the efforts of her son, Josie’s life is commemorated with each Magee patient who valiantly fights against a diagnosis of breast cancer. 14 www.mwrif.org Contributors LISTS Magee-Womens Research Institute & Foundation Supporters Listed below are those who have made a gift in support of Magee-Womens Research Institute & Foundation between July 1, 2009, and June 30, 2010.
