Conflict of Interest

The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Advancing treatment outcomes in malignant glioma by integrating immunotherapy and standard of care using genetically engineered mice that recapitulate molecular feature of human glioma

Project Narrative Using the body?s own immune system to combat cancer (call immunotherapy) is a promising new approach for the treatment of cancer. Immunotherapy is currently being tested for a type of very aggressive brain cancer called glioblastoma multiforme. These trials are conducted in patients who are also receiving radiation and chemotherapy, which is standard for glioblastoma. In order to better interpret these clinical trials, we need to understand how radiation and chemotherapy will affect the immune cells that are present within and around the tumor so that we can better leverage the power of immunotherapy for glioblastoma patients.

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.
