Abstract
Patient-centered trials are pivotal to advancing the oncology field efficiently. However, in recent years, there has been a shift away from patient-centered approaches. In this commentary, we describe common non-patient-centric practices of contemporary trials, discuss their implications, and propose potential solutions to relocate patients to the center of trials where they belong.
