Understanding the Challenge
Clinical trials have long struggled with underrepresentation from various demographic groups, hindering the ability to understand treatment efficacy across different populations. This lack of diversity exacerbates health disparities and limits outcomes for marginalized communities. The FDA's recent guidance mandates sponsors to create diverse action plans to ensure representative testing. Failure to comply could lead to delays and increased costs.
