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.

Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

Neuroinflammation NewCo, Inc.

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)

This project aims to characterize at the molecular, cellular and organismal levels the pathophysiology of clonal histiocytic disorders, exemplified by Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) and Erdheim-Chester Disease (ECD). There is a business overlap with NeuroInflammation Newco because they may have an interest in the research results.

Listed Research Project
Lineages and pathophysiology of clonal histiocytic disorders

Narrative This project investigates the pathophysiology of clonal histiocytic disorders, exemplified by Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) and Erdheim-Chester Disease (ECD). We made the novel hypothesis that somatic BRAF mutations in yolk sac hematopoietic progenitors during embryogenesis may be causative of these diseases, and we have developed in vivo models that allow this hypothesis to be tested experimentally. This work will help elucidate the pathophysiology and mechanism of histiocytoses, and improve the treatment of some of their most adverse complication such as the neurodegenerative syndrome.

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.
