Diversity in Clinical Trials

Minorities have historically been underrepresented in clinical trials. In 2011, African Americans and Hispanics comprised 12% and 16% of the US population, respectively, but only 5% and 1% of trial participants were African Americans and Hispanics, respectively. Clinical trials and the people who volunteer to participate in them are essential to help develop safe and effective medical products to fight diseases and illnesses.
