This database was last updated in December 2019 and should only be used as a historical snapshot. There may be new or amended records not reflected here.
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.

Therapy for leptomeningeal medulloblastoma by a novel implantable pump
Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain cancer in children, with frequent spread to the linings of the brain and spinal cord (i.e., leptomeningeal metastasis), where treatment cannot enter effectively, making this an important health problem. Our proposal will test a new mode of metronomic chemotherapy and immunotherapy delivered directly to leptomeningeal metastases of medulloblastoma in mice, using a novel implantable wireless programmable refillable micropump developed by us. Successful testing will serve as preclinical data to translate use of a scaled-up pump for a first-in-humans clinical trial and may also allow subsequent expansion to other brain-centered diseases that can benefit from leptomeningeal drug delivery and thus further increase the impact of this work.

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.
