Clinical trials are essential for evaluating potential new treatments, advancing the standard of care, and improving patient outcomes, yet only about five percent of Americans participate in them.
Join The Hill, virtually on May 20th, as we discuss measures Congress can take to make clinical trials more accessible to patients. Our program will address the economics behind clinical trials, biggest barriers to participation and how it affects the future of drug development. |
