- Abstract
The article presents a systematic review to determine the barriers to participation of underrepresented populations in cancer-related trials. Several factors were reported as barriers to participation in cancer related trials including lack of culturally relevant education about clinical trials, lower socioeconomic status and racial/ethnic minority status. Only 20 of the studies in the review reported significant associations between hypothesized barriers and enrollment.
