Numerous studies have documented patient-level barriers to research participation that are often connected to social determinants of health. As described in this paper, to significantly move the needle toward greater diversity and inclusion in cancer research, it will take a full commitment to integrating an equity lens across the cancer research ecosystem, specifically among sponsors, institutions, and investigators.
大量研究记录了患者参与研究的障碍,这些障碍通常与健康的社会决定因素有关。正如本文所述,要显著推动癌症研究中更大的多样性和包容性,就需要全面承诺在癌症研究生态系统中纳入公平视角,特别是在赞助商、机构和研究人员中。
