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.

An Advanced Vaccine Candidate To Prevent Zika Virus Infection
PROJECT NARRATIVE In this proposal, we provide preliminary data demonstrating that we have developed a novel approach to preparing an advanced vaccine candidate against Zika virus that is highly immunogenic, elicits strong neutralizing antibody responses to multiple strains of virus, and protects against lethal Zika virus infection. Based on these findings, we plan to produce clinical-grade vaccine suitable for testing in Phase I clinical trials.

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.
