A roadmap for improving representation in clinical trials
Clinical trials continue to struggle with recruiting diverse participants that include historically underrepresented and minoritized patients, who are typically patients in non-white racial and ethnic groups and have low income (Medicaid). Enrolling diverse participants will benefit the health sciences by providing more generalizable findings. The Cancer Financial Experience project (CAFÉ) study sought to improve financial distress by providing financial navigation for newly diagnosed cancer patients, and intentionally recruited diverse participants. All diverse participants consented at slightly higher rates than non-diverse participants (21.3 % vs. 20.1 %). Spanish-speaking patients consented at a much higher rate than non-Spanish speakers (36.4 % vs. 20.2 % respectively). Here we discuss how we increased our recruitment of diverse participants. Obtaining diverse participation is achievable and will provide more meaningful findings.
期刊介绍:
Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is an international peer reviewed open access journal that publishes articles pertaining to all aspects of clinical trials, including, but not limited to, design, conduct, analysis, regulation and ethics. Manuscripts submitted should appeal to a readership drawn from a wide range of disciplines including medicine, life science, pharmaceutical science, biostatistics, epidemiology, computer science, management science, behavioral science, and bioethics. Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is unique in that it is outside the confines of disease specifications, and it strives to increase the transparency of medical research and reduce publication bias by publishing scientifically valid original research findings irrespective of their perceived importance, significance or impact. Both randomized and non-randomized trials are within the scope of the Journal. Some common topics include trial design rationale and methods, operational methodologies and challenges, and positive and negative trial results. In addition to original research, the Journal also welcomes other types of communications including, but are not limited to, methodology reviews, perspectives and discussions. Through timely dissemination of advances in clinical trials, the goal of Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is to serve as a platform to enhance the communication and collaboration within the global clinical trials community that ultimately advances this field of research for the benefit of patients.
