MONTO A SUBVENCIONAR

4.500.000 EUR

This topic aims to develop a multi-faceted, intersectional approach to overcome the multifactorial barriers associated with the recruitment and retention of underserved patient populations in clinical studies and to contribute to transforming the way clinical studies are conducted in Europe.

Expected Impact:
The following impacts are expected:

•Awareness and understanding of what diversity, under-represented and underserved communities look like in geographies across Europe, including barriers and gaps to recruitment and retention in different types of clinical research, such as clinical studies1 on medical products, clinical investigations for medical devices, and performance studies in in vitro diagnostics (IVDs), cohorts, and registries.

•Enhanced representativeness of underserved populations in clinical studies across Europe, through the building of a patient-centric, sustainable infrastructure that improves the recruitment and retention of these patients.

•Increased study data reliability and genetic diversity by including different demographic groups, thereby enhancing patient trust in the evidence generated. More patients benefit from increased access to improved innovative health technologies including medicinal products and medical devices that meet the specific needs and profiles of all patient populations.

•Promoting the implementation of new tools, solutions, approaches, or process models that will reduce the burden of clinical studies and facilitate and increase diverse patient populations’ access to clinical studies.

•Contribution to the Accelerating Clinical Trials in the EU2 (ACT-EU) objectives to proactively deliver inclusive patient-oriented medicines development and delivery across populations.
