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 Value
Listed Reason
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)

The SFIs of the investigator are related to the funded research since the technology being used in the project has been licensed to the company with which the investigator has multiple relationships.

The Institution has determined that since the technology could be further validated as a result of the research, these financial interests could conflict with project.

Listed Research Project
SPORE in Breast Cancer

Overall Narrative The UNC Breast Cancer SPORE, funded since 1992, continually updates its approaches through recruitment and development of talented faculty and investment in genomic, early detection and therapeutic technology. The UNC SPORE has had an emphasis over more than two decades on minority disparities through the unique population-based Carolina Breast Cancer Study and other initiatives; the proposed projects will focus on understanding the correlates and causes of disparate survival outcomes between African-Americans and whites, the influence of inflammatory signaling in ER+ disease, developing clinically practical molecular and immunologic biomarkers of response to existing and new treatments, and how to reverse adaptive reprogramming that results in rapid resistance to targeted agents in triple negative breast cancer.

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.
