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.

MD Anderson Cancer Center EDRN- CVC for Early Detection of Ovarian Cancer
When ovarian cancer is diagnosed at an early stage, combination surgery and chemotherapy can cure 90% of women with disease contained in the ovary (stage I) and 70% with disease limited to the pelvis (stage II), but when disease has spread further, cure slips to 20% or less. Our group has shown that annual measurement of CA125 followed by ultrasound, and surgery, if indicated, can detect early stage (I, II) disease with no more than three operations for each case detected. Our Clinical Validation Center will provide specimens to EDRN Biomarker Validation Laboratories and test whether annual measurement of four blood tests detects early stage cases with an acceptable number of benign ovarian lesions.

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.
