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.

Targeting the MLL-WDR5 protein-protein interaction
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a form of blood cancer and affects both children and adults with an incidence of approximately 7000 new patients in the U.S. each year. A substantial portion of AML cases has extremely dire prognosis and new and effective therapies are urgently needed. This project seeks the discovery and development of small-molecule inhibitors of the WDR5-MLL protein-protein interaction as a completely new class of therapy for the treatment of AML and other types of human cancer.

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.
