Finding Common Ground: Clinical Trial Inclusion from Perspectives of Sites and Patients

In this recorded webinar, Teckro led a practical discussion about diversity, equity and inclusion both from the perspective of research sites and patient advocates. We highlighted research sponsored by Teckro and conducted by the Center for Information and Study on Clinical Research Participation (CISCRP) that looked at the nuanced complexities of LGBTQ+ community participation in clinical research.

The discussion focused on:

• Multidimensional approaches needed to achieve true diversity, equity and inclusion
• LGBTQ+ patient perspectives highlighting challenges with clinical trial participation
• Clinical research site perspectives against the backdrop of current site pressures
• Recommendations for improving inclusion of underserved patient communities in clinical trials

Hosted by SCRS in partnership with Teckro, this webinar was presented by:

• Silvina Baudino, Teckro director of site engagement
• Luckie Alexander, founder of Invisible Men and LGBTQ+ advocate
• Chris Komelasky, CEO and Co-founder of SiteBridge Research
