The Foundation's strategy Vds reviewed, updated and endorsed by the Foundation's Scientific Advisory Board. Whilst this did not fijndamentally change the FoUndatn'S mtssion and vision, it has supported prioritls8tion and areas of focus for the Foundation. (rhe updated strategy is summarised in Figure 1.1 There were 18 active projects at the yearond. ofwhich 14 were vthh acadern collaborators and the remainder with commercial partners. A furM)er 3 projects were in adive development. Significant presS was made on a number of key scientific projects: The randomised. placebo controlled, clinical trial (NCT02991807) assessing the use of the MTOR inhibitor everolimus vs pb¢ in PHTS subjects with neurobehavioural problems completed recruitment This was a significant milestone for PHTS research as it was the first ever clinical trial to assess a drug intervention in this Specif patient population. Publication of results is exwcted later in 2021. PTEN Research was the majority funder of this sludy. Reflecting the importance of developing approaches to facilitate future clinical trials in PHTS subjects, grants were made to the University of Melboume and John Carroll University to support the development of PHTS-specific neurobehavioural evaluation tools. It is hoped that these tools may become endpoints for future clinical trials. An application for an Intemational Classification of Diseases IICD-10-CMI code for PHTS was also submilled to the US Center for Disease Control. Page 5
PTEN RESEARCH FOUNDATION (A Company Llmited by Guaranle¢) RESEARCH TRUSTEES, REPORT (continued) FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 The Foundation's preclinical work is fOSSed on the devek)pmenl of relevant preclinical models in which to perform drug repurp)sing sbjdies to provide supportive d3ta and rationale for future PHTS patient clinical trials. Initially. the studies are fDcused on a broad range of existing molecules that have been developed to specifically inhibit the key 5vJnalling nodes of the P13KJAKTlmTOR pathway. Inhibitory activity will be assessed both in vitro and in vivo in models that are deperent on loss of PTEN function. During the year signif cant progress was made towards rnodel development targeting malignancy (endometrial hYrPlaSja). vascular anomalies and neurology with multiple academic Ilaborators. Further, the Foundation signed agreements with the Contract Research Organisations ICROS) Evolec and Charfes River Laboratories to broaden the range of available PHTS-specific models and provide ¢apa¢ity to evaluate large numbers of drug repurposing candtdates in contrast to the more bespoke studies with academic collaborators. A collaborab.on with the vascular biok)gy group at Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute in Barcelona has estsblished a re[ of PHTS vascular malformations and is assessing two potential clinical candidates.

This includes clinical research studies, interventional dinical triaFs. preclinicavtranslational research projects and, where appropriate. basic research projeots. Funding is primarily provided through two mechanisms: Targeted calls Innovation Awards 11 is noted that discussions arising from the Clinical DeveloprrEnt Working Groups have also led to several grant applications. Gran15 are awarded to Principal Investigators who have qualified with an MD or PhD and who have an established research prograrnme in a recogni%ed academ or clinical research institution. Eligibility is not restricted to any SpefiC geography. Funding is intended to suppart all essenttal costs relating trj the project. including staff, consum8bles, equipment, travel and publication costs. The Foundation has a wlicy to only pay costs directly attributable lo the activities of the grant. Applications undergo a lenti¢, strategic. and programmatic assessment by the Foundation's internal research team before generally being submitted for extemal peer review by at least two independent subject- matter experts. The peer vieWed applTrcatsons are then subject to review by the Scienltfic Athiisory Board ISAB} and trustees.

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees a responsible for assessing the charitable companys ability to continue as a going concern. disclosing, as applicable. matter5 related lo going concern and using the goin9 concem basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to Itquidate the charitable company or to ¢ease operations. or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditors, responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are lo obtain ?sOnable assuran about whether the financi41 statements as a whole are free from material misslatement, whether due to fraud or error. and to issue an auditors, report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurants is a hh level of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) wll aNvays detect a material misstatement when it exists. Mi5Statemenls can arise from fraud or error and are considered malerial if. indNidually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably t expected lo influence the economic decisK)ns of usets taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance wth laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above. to detect material misslatemenls in respect of irregularities, including fraud. In identifying and assessirtg risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including traud and non-compliance wth laws and regutatKJns. we considered the following: The nature of the sector and the impact of COVKI 19 on financial and operab'ng perf0mlan and policies.. Enquiries of managemenL including obtaining and reviewing supporting documentstion, concerning the charity's policies and procedures relating to.. identifying, evaluating and comptying wth laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance., delecling and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud-, and the internal controls established to mitsgate risks lated to fraud or rn-COMpliace of laws and regulations., and Discussions among the engagement team regarding how and vthere fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud. The engagement team include5 audit partners and staff who have extenswe experien¢e of working entibes in similar sectors and this experience was relevant to the discussion about where fraud risks might arise. We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory tramework that the charity operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and [U18.0nS that had direct effect on the detenmination of tnalerial amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and reguLgtR)ns we considered in this context included the UK Charities Ac( Charities SORP 2019 and the Companies Act 2006. In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamentsl to the charity's ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty- Page 13
PTEN RESEARCH FOUNDAnoN IA company limited by guarantee) INDEPENDENT AUDITORS. REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PTEN RESEARCH FOUNDATION {CONTINUED} FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 As a result of these procedures. we ¢ODsidered Ihe partir#Jlar areas that were SUSptib]e lo misslatemenl due lo irregularities including fraud were in SpeCt of income recognition and classification, management override and unrecorded grant commilments. Our procedures to reswnd lo risks identified included the following Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to SUPF#Nting documentation to assess compliance wlh provisions of revant laws and regulations de5critsed as having a direct effect on Ihe financial statements,. Enquiring of management Conrning ¥tual and wtenlial litigation and Claims- Performing analyti] prctedures to idents'fy any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misslatemenl due to fraud- Reading minutes of meetings of those Charged vrith govemance.. Reviewing recognition of income to supporting documentation to verity approprrdle recognition and Classif'On: In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of CLTrntrols,' assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a wlentkal bkgs-, and evaluating the rationale of any signrficant transactions that are unusual or outSKle the nomial course of the charity's operations,, Reviewing grant agreements and evidence supporting stage of completion in respect of grant milestones to verify accuracy of grant cornmitments. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the fvrther removed non•compliance with laws and regulations is from the ev8nts and transactK)ns reflected in the financial statements. the less likely we would become aware of it. Aso, the risk of not detecting a material MisstatenI due to fraud is higher Ih8n the risk of not detecb'ng one re5ulling from error, as fraud may invofve deliberate contsalmenl by. for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
