("DF/CHCC") is a Massachusetts charitable corporation organized on December 14, 2000, whose members are The Children's Hospital Corporation ("Children's") and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc. ("Dana-Farber"). Its primary purpose is to oversee, coordinate and support the Pediatric Oncology Program (the "Joint Program"). It also, formalizes the pediatric oncology partnership that has existed between Dana-Farber and Boston Children's since 1947.The Joint Program, which is the largest pediatric oncology program in New England and one of the most active in the country, offers the combined expertise of both a world-class cancer center and an internationally renowned children's hospital. Neighboring institutes connected by pedestrian bridges, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Boston Children's Hospital work together to offer seamless, integrated care for children with all types of cancer and blood disorders including the rarest and most complex cases. Through our joint partnership, Dana-Farber/Boston Children's offers more specialists, more treatment options, and more clinical trials than almost any other pediatric center treating cancer and blood disorders in the world.Our Expertise in Treating Pediatric Cancer and Blood Disorders: Our hematologists and oncologists are among the world leaders in their respective specialties; many have pioneered treatments that have been adopted by medical communities around the globe. Our doctors also collaborate with teams of expert subspecialists to provide truly comprehensive care for our patients. Innovative Approaches:Our history of research and innovation has resulted in many of the diagnostic and therapeutic techniques currently used around the world to treat cancer and blood disorders. Today, we continue to stand among the world's leaders in many innovative approaches.Our research, clinical trials, and state-of-the art treatment facilities allow our care teams to provide the safest and most effective care possible.Some of our innovative approaches include:- The Advancing Childhood Cancer Therapies (ACCT) Clinic offers clinical trials for relapsed and refractory cancer. CAR T-cell therapy is a promising new treatment for some of the most challenging cases we face in pediatric leukemia and lymphoma. - Gene therapy delivers DNA into a patient's cells to replace faulty or missing genes or to add new genes in an attempt to cure a disease or make changes so the body is better able to fight off disease. - Immunotherapy is the treatment of disease by inducing, enhancing, or suppressing an immune response. Cancer immunotherapy attempts to stimulate the immune system to reject or destroy tumors.- MIBG therapy is a special treatment for children with refractory or relapsed neuroblastoma. We are one of only a handful of centers in the United States equipped for this type of treatment. - Our Pediatric Cancer Genetic Risk Program provides cancer risk assessment and comprehensive recommendations for managing cancer risk.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
