Promoting Racial Justice in Cancer Clinical Trials: Community Engaged Solutions for Bridging Gaps
Our findings demonstrate that people of color strongly desire clinical trial options and discussions during cancer care, and trust-building is foundational to opening pathways to research participation. We offer concrete steps for increasing racial justice in cancer clinical trials that serve as a point of reflection and guidance for healthcare professionals, researchers, and clinical trials teams.
