Evaluation of the Establishment of a Public and Patient Involvement and Engagement Group to Support Clinical Trials in Pakistan: Protocol for a Mixed-Methods Study
Although focused on a single group, this evaluation lays the groundwork for understanding PPIE practices in LMIC contexts. It provides valuable insights into developing equitable partnerships and improving patient-centred research. This study contributes to a growing body of knowledge, offering practical guidance for implementing PPIE in settings with unique socioeconomic challenges and cultural realities. The findings are expected to benefit the local research community and similar initiatives globally, particularly in regions with comparable challenges.
