Merck

Listed Reason

The research company wants a group of "experts" in the field to assess their data on a new patented drug to treat fatty liver (NAFLD) from animals and clinical studies (1B/2A). No new patent is expected, just an opinion as to whether the data is promising (or not) to continue drug development to a large RCT for future FDA approval. The plan is to help with potential design strategy, approach to assessment of key endpoints (liver biopsy, imaging, and soluble biomarkers), study population, and operational aspects for NASH. Of note, these have mostly already been standardized by the FDA for 2B/3A RCTs so no information is expected to lead to a patent in the study design.

Additional Comments

The meeting will take place on 2/28 at New York City (Newport Airport hotel).

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.
