Conflict of Interest
Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

(PQ7) In Vivo Cellular Optical Imaging of Esophageal Tumors and Microenvironment
Esophageal cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancers. The largest impediment for determining optimal targeted therapies for esophageal cancer treatment is the absence of an in vivo imaging method that can identify cancer cell types, tumor microenvironment, and is able to closely monitor the treatment progress. Therefore, the purpose of this program is to develop the native contrast real time in vivo imaging technology that will improve esophageal cancer survival rates through optimized and personalized treatment.

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.
