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

A Phase I Dose-escalation Study of Intraperitoneal CYN101 as Consolidation Immunotherapy in Women with Residual or Recurrent Ovarian Cancer Status after Chemotherapy

In spite of significant progress in cancer therapies, mortality rates for most malignancies remain high. The classical regimen of cancer therapy (e.g. chemotherapy and radiotherapy) has a narrow therapeutic index that is further reduced by drug resistance that develops among tumor cells and is often associated with severe side effects. Therefore, we propose a viral immunotherapy clinical trial, using novel and safer vectors that have the potential to cure tumor metastasis and prevent relapse.

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.
