Although we all recognize the under-representation of some populations in clinical trials and the value of having more representative studies, we continue to struggle to increase clinical study diversity. The report identifies major barriers to achieving a diverse clinical trial population across different demographic and non-demographic groups and suggests ways to overcome these barriers. Common obstacles include lack of community engagement critical for developing trust and facilitating diverse enrollment and retention, restrictive eligibility criteria, and logistical (usually attached to budget) issues. Achieving meaningful diversity in clinical trials is a multifaceted challenge that requires intentional, coordinated efforts across the entire clinical trial ecosystem. The difficulty of this endeavor is matched by the significance of its impact, as increasing diversity and representation in clinical trials will not only enhance the effectiveness and safety of drugs but also foster trust within underrepresented populations, making strides towards a more equitable future in medical research. https://lnkd.in/eU7-rZgp The APPENDIX section also provides a valuable source of guidance documents.

Including diversity in clinical studies has long been a topic of discussion within the medical community. The importance of this issue is further elaborated in a perspective published on NEJM Group. One notable example highlighting the impact of diversity on clinical accuracy involves the influence of skin color on the outputs of pulse oximetry, detailed in recent publications. Notably, the US FDA recently released a draft guidance titled "Diversity Action Plans to Improve Enrollment of Participants from Underrepresented Populations in Clinical Studies." This guidance aims to standardize study design, potentially aligning practices with new regulatory provisions. Some manufacturers have already incorporated these requirements into their operations, showcasing proactive measures in this area. The guidance outlines the format and content of Diversity Action Plans, emphasizing the need for sponsors to specify enrollment rationale and goals across various demographic factors. It also encourages a comprehensive approach to diversity beyond traditional categories, ensuring representation of the patient populations that may benefit from approved products. While the focus is currently on US markets, aligning these requirements internationally presents an intriguing challenge. Aligning epidemiologically with conditions treated by products across diverse markets adds further complexity to this goal. Furthermore, the guidance holds promise for digital health applications, ensuring efficacy and benefit alignment with user needs.

Life Science Leader Passionate about External Communications | Patient Focused Drug Development | Patient Engagement | Global Health Advocate | Oncology & Rare Disease
Patient Focus is a corporate, enterprise imperative and flows through clinical development from there. One approach that holds great promise for development stage companies is for Program Team leadership to take the lead and develop and commit to a patient/ advocacy engagement plan with shared development and corporate reputational objectives. Corporate Communications can be a great partner. Companies can start by making sure program teams are intimately connected with the patient experience.
It's easy for drug development companies to say they're committed to supporting the patient engagement movement – but research shows otherwise. A recent survey from Tufts University shares that of several hundred companies polled, only 27% are routinely soliciting patient input into protocol design decisions. Aside from that, a recent CISCRP study found: ◾ Only 35% of clinical trial volunteers report receiving a formal verbal or written “Thank You." ◾ Less than 30% of clinical trial volunteers report receiving any information about the results of their clinical trial. If you want to become more patient-centric but don't have the bandwidth, resources, or know-how, we'd love to help.
