This database was last updated in December 2019 and should only be used as a historical snapshot. There may be new or amended records not reflected here.
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.

Covalent BioScience, Inc.
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
Covalent BioScience Inc. is a private, for-profit company whose business focuses on developing therapeutic formulations based on catalytic antibodies, covalent vaccination, and protein nucleophilicity. Dr. Planque owns stock in the company. She had assigned her inventor rights of the technology to another inventor, Dr. Sudhir Paul (Primary Investigator) and Dr. Paul has since assigned those rights to the company. The research project is directed towards identifying and characterizing specific catalytic antibodies (catabodies) that degrade tau, which could then be developed for therapy of Alzheimer's disease in future studies. The research utilizes the related technology.
Tau-directed catalytic antibodies
Tau aggregates are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. This project is directed towards identifying and characterizing specific catalytic antibodies that degrade tau. The catabodies could be developed for therapy of Alzhemier's disease in future studies.

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.
