Filing Type

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.

(PQA4) Molecularly Targeted Chemoprevention for Preneoplastic Squamous (5R01 CA194617-02)

Squamous cell carcinomas kill over 900,000 people worldwide annually for which there are only ineffective therapies, though it is estimated that cancer prevention efforts have the potential to reduce cancer incidence and cancer-related mortality by over 50% and 30% percent, respectively. Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cuSCC), the 2nd most common skin cancer, has a well-ordered sequence of development beginning with chronically sun-exposed skin, progressing to the most common precancerous lesion in humans, the actinic keratosis (AK), and then ultimately to invasive cancer. Our studies will demonstrate that specific microRNAs and specific DNA mutations are the properties of cells in a preneoplastic field that will serve as the basis for both risk prediction and chemoprevention of SCC.

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.
