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.

Listed Research Project
CD19 Directed CAR Therapy

In this project a form of personalized medicine using a customized immune system will be tested for patients with advanced chronic lymphocytic leukemia: the patient is first treated with FDA approved chemotherapy and then infused with patient T lymphocytes that have been altered in the laboratory to have redirected specificity for a molecule on the surface of the tumor cells, a process that endows the T cells with the capability to kill tumor cells. The results in a pilot phase I trial indicate that the redirected T cells have potent antitumor effects in patients. The studies in this project will establish further the safety and feasibility of the procedure, and will provide essential information on the mechanism of action of this promising new therapy in a phase IIa clinical trial in patients with advanced chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

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.
