01What it does

What Quantum Leap Healthcare Collaborative does

Mission

The mission of quantum leap healthcare collarborative is to provide management and financial support to healthcare research organizations, particularly involving breast cancer research and treatment.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Ispy 2.2 - I-spy 2.2 uses a 'sequential multiple assignment randomized trial' (smart) design - that is both smart and adaptive. The trial consists of up to three blocks of treatment. The first, block a, includes novel targeted therapies, without standard chemotherapy. If a patient achieves a complete response after block a, they can avoid toxic chemotherapy and go directly to surgery. If they have residual cancer, or the treatment is found to have little effect halfway through the course of treatment, they are recommended to proceed to treatment in block b. In block b, patients are assigned a treatment regimen most likely to work for their subtype, often combined with chemotherapy since the risk of toxicity is more acceptable in patients with more resistant cancer. (continued on schedule o)if block b treatment is effective, the patient can skip additional chemotherapy and go to surgery. Only if they still have tumor left after block b, will the patientt get rescue therapy with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide a chemotherapy regimen that has been around for decades. Average overhead booked to program in fy2024 = 36.9%

  2. Dcis - the re-evaluating conditions for active surveillance suitability as treatment: ductal carcinoma in situ (recast dcis) platform trial is a landmark phase 2 trial that is changing the lens through which we treat dcis. The study is aimed at preventing the progression of dcis to breast cancer and is evaluating three investigational endocrine therapy arms.with the objective to avoid over-treatment of low-risk dcis patients, this new trial offers dcis patients endocrine therapy with the intent to identify patients who are responsive to non-invasive treatment and have the option to omit surgery and be monitored via long-term active surveillance. (continued on schedule o)a key element in reducing over treatment of dcis is identifying biomarkers that reflect the risk of progression so that those with low-risk lesions are spared surgery. Recast dcis features the assessment of mri imaging and molecular-based biomarker analyses in addition to evaluating new investigational agents in this setting. If patients and their physicians agree, they may be able to stay on endocrine therapy for up to three years. Average overhead booked to program in fy2024 = 7.2%

  3. Phase1b - pre I-spy is an open-label phase 1b platform study designed to evaluate single agents or combinations in a metastatic treatment setting that may be relevant for breast cancer patients with the overall goal of moving promising drug regimens into the I-spy 2.2 trial and/or other oncology-based trials in a timely manner. The primary objectives of this platform trial are to determine the safety and tolerability of new agents/regimes in patients with certain advanced solid tumors and breast cancer while obtaining preliminary efficacy data of the new agents/regimes. The study was developed to help investigators and industry partners meet the safety qualifications necessary for participation in I-spy 2.2 (continued on schedule o) trial and/or other phase ii/iii studies.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 5 funders, grant income fell $168k → $132k.

8 of 18 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 29% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of QUANTUM LEAP HEALTHCARE COLLABORATIVE’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

QUANTUM LEAP HEALTHCARE COLLABORATIVE has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 27% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left

57% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund QUANTUM LEAP HEALTHCARE COLLABORATIVE.
