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.

Optimizing AAV Vectors for Central Nervous System transduction
Project Narrative The goals of this research are to improve on current CNS-directed gene therapy approaches for Sanfilippo Syndrome and neurodegenerative diseases in general by comparing 40 promising vectors directly and confirming the cell type and expression levels of the best vectors in murine and primate models. The efficacy of the best vector will then be assessed in the murine model of Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB (MPS IIIB or Sanfilippo Syndrome type B). This disease has a devastating impact on the children and families affected and this proposal will identify an optimal therapy to relieve this disease burden.

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.
