ClinConnect Summary

The Clinical Trial Preference Study is a research project aimed at understanding how to make clinical trials more appealing to people from diverse backgrounds who are often underrepresented in these studies. The goal is to find out what specific features of clinical trials might encourage more individuals from different racial and ethnic groups, as well as those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, to participate. Researchers will look at preferences for things like receiving full results versus limited results, how much effort participants have to put in, whether assessments are done at home or in a clinical setting, and if the results are relevant to specific social groups or the general population.

To be eligible for this study, participants must be at least 18 years old, live in the United States, and have internet access with audio and visual capabilities. They should also be able to read and speak English. If you join the study, you'll be part of a larger group of 800 individuals who will share their thoughts on what makes a clinical trial more attractive. The information gathered will help researchers design better trials in the future, making it easier to include diverse participants and address health disparities.
