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.

Image-guided EMT inhibition for treating metastatic breast cancer
This project will be focused on developing new image-guided therapeutic strategy by targeting proteins in key biological events associated with metastasis to treat life- threatening metastatic breast cancer. The new therapy has a great potential to prevent breast cancer metastasis and alleviate the resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapy, and to eventually cure the disease. Preclinical and clinical development of a lead therapeutic regimen will be initiated once it is identified and validated in the project.

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.
