Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

Foghorn Therapeutics

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)

Dr. Kadoch is a co-founder of Foghorn Therapeutics, a small biotech company. Foghorn has developed a “Gene Traffic Control” platform, based on the biology of the chromatin regulatory system, to develop therapeutics targeting epigenetic regulators in cancer and other diseases.This grant aims to (1) comprehensively profile the assembly and modular organization of PBAF complexes and define the impact of PBRM1; and to (2) define the consequences of PBRM1 loss on the recruitment of RNA Pol II to active promoters and transcription initiation. The DFCI Conflict of Interest Committee concluded that the results of this research could be of scientific and financial interest to Foghorn Therapeutics and, accordingly, represented a financial conflict of interest under the regulations.

Listed Research Project
DF/HCC Kidney Cancer SPORE

This SPORE is focused on several important themes in kidney cancer: 1) using the growing understanding of kidney cancer biology to target critical pathways and produce durable clinical benefit for patients with advanced kidney cancer; 2) correlating genomic analyses with clinical outcomes to identify molecular biomarkers for the purposes of monitoring and predicting treatment outcome; 3) understanding the mechanisms by which kidney cancer becomes resistant to standard therapies and developing effective treatment combinations.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, public records requests filed at multiple public state universities

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
