The ACS (American Cancer Society) was founded by businessmen and doctors.

In this case, parenthesis were used clarify or add information about the meaning of the initials “ACS”. If the information within parenthesis is deleted, the meaning of the sentence will not change.

The example sentence does not need additional punctuation marks such as brackets or commas to clarify its meaning.
