TORONTO, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Diversity in clinical trial data is more important than ever, yet cultural differences in health behaviors, communication styles and attitudes toward research participation continue to create significant barriers to inclusive enrollment. Historical underrepresentation, compounded by limited infrastructure in some regions, exacerbates these challenges, risking the exclusion of critical insights and correlations that could improve research outcomes. As the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) now emphasizes diversity planning in protocol development and study execution, it is essential for clinical research professionals to prioritize inclusive recruitment and retention strategies.
In this webinar, the expert speakers will explore the evolving landscape of clinical trial recruitment. They will address key considerations for enhancing diversity in traditional site-based studies while providing actionable recommendations for hybrid and decentralized study designs.
Patient travel services play a pivotal role in ensuring that participants from diverse geographic locations and socioeconomic backgrounds can access trial sites, eliminating logistical barriers to participation. Attendees will gain insights on how to expand access, engage diverse populations and ensure that clinical trials better reflect the patients most impacted by research findings.
Register for this webinar to explore innovative strategies for improving patient participation and enhancing diversity in clinical trial recruitment and retention.
Join experts from Elligo Health Research®, Rita Yankyera, Assistant Medical Director; Leslie Carney, Patient Recruitment & Marketing; and Chris Benevides, Patient Travel Services, for the live webinar on Friday, December 6, 2024, at 11am EST (4pm GMT/UK).
