Background
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Revitalization Act in 1993 was designed to address disparities in the participation in clinical trials. Signed into law on June 10, 1993 and amended October, 2001, the Revitalization Act directed the NIH to establish guidelines for inclusion of women and minorities in clinical research.

Cancer related disparities
· Incidence and mortality rates from lung cancer are higher among African American men than in whites, even though they begin smoking at an older age and smoke fewer cigarettes per day.
· The Appalachian region has a higher mortality rate for all cancers in the United States as a whole.
· Vietnamese women have a higher cervical cancer incidence rate than any ethnic group in the United States, approximately fives times the incidence in non-Hispanic white women.

Barriers to Recruitment
Barriers that limit participation are multifactorial and complex
Vary from one population to another
Lack of awareness of clinical trials Lack of opportunity and access Individual beliefs regarding participation in
medical research
![Page 13: Presentation Name Recruitment and Accrual of Special Populations Special Population Committee Elizabeth A. Patterson M.D., Chair](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649c825503460f9493a9a4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Barriers of awareness
May be affected by the health literacy of potential participants failure of dissemination regarding clinical trials
to possible participants and/or their health care providers.

Lack of opportunity and access
May be related to · health insurance status · potential cost or time required by

Individual beliefs regarding participation in medical research
· Vary by to race/ethnicity, social economic status, educational status, and geographic location

Strategies for the Recruitment of Special Populations
· Differences in cultural perceptions regarding healthcare utilization and research should be considered when developing strategies for the recruitment of participants from culturally diverse populations.
· The strategies used for recruitment should reflect the recruitment target population.
· For all populations, health care providers have a crucial role in increasing referrals for clinical trials.

Recommendations for Successful Recruitment:
· Acknowledgement that the recruitment of a diverse study population is not an investigator choice; it is a mandate from the NIH.
· Establishment of minority/special populations accrual goals based on prevalence or incidence of disease
· Development of recruitment strategies for special populations in advance of trial launch, optimally at the time of protocol development
· Selection of sites based on prior site success in minority recruitment and a plan in place to recruit special populations

For the sites: (Cont.)
· Cultural adaptations of recruitment materials· Community based advisory committees and promotion
of trial by community leaders or trial champion/thought leaders
· Collaboration with local health care providers/clinicians· In populations with limited literacy, informed consents
read aloud in English, Spanish or the language of the targeted population with scripts adjusted to less than 6th grade level readability.
· Development of memorandum of understanding with other research groups within the same institution to share expertise in recruitment of special populations

Conclusion
· Effective recruitment and retention of racial and ethnic minorities, women and medically underserved populations is critical in improving health disparities and in the treatment and prevention of cancer in all populations.
· Future goals should include better understanding of barriers and strategies to recruitment of special populations as well as strategies to increase the diversity of scientists and researchers.
