Thank you for attending INtegrate 2024, the AACP Interim Meeting. Please take a few minutes to complete this brief survey and share your feedback about the meeting. We value your input and your comments will assist us in planning future events.

This survey will close on Friday, March 29th. Your responses to this survey will remain confidential.

The diversity of clinical trial participants does not reflect the population of the United States. AACP is seeking to learn about activities at its member schools related to clinical trial recruitment and diversity of clinical trial participants as part of our project, “Mobilizing a Pharmacy Advances Clinical Trials (PACT) Network and Community-based Organizations to Address Diversity in Clinical Trials,” funded by Genentech and the Genentech Foundation Health Equity and Diversity in STEM Innovation Grant. This project aims to create and train a network of community-based pharmacists and partners to enhance clinical trial participation among underrepresented populations.

This information collection is a continuation of a preliminary scan of activities related to clinical trials and participant diversity to gather insights from select schools as part of a collaborative agreement with researchers from the Texas A&M University Irma Lerma Rangel School of Pharmacy funded by the Food and Drug Administration Office of Minority Health and Health Equity. The results of the preliminary scan are promising, highlighting the active participation of pharmacists in initiatives enhancing diversity in clinical trials.

For the purposes of this scan, an activity is broadly defined as a collaboration, initiative, course, partnership, or program contributing to advancing clinical trial diversity in areas such as advocacy, education, teaching, outreach, practice, research, and/or service. The information collected will be used to create a public resource about pharmacy academia’s activities to enhance diversity in clinical trials. Information submitted will be analyzed by members of the project team, and insights from submitted activities and outcomes will be used to form the basis of a strategic framework for utilizing pharmacist-community partnerships to increase clinical trial diversity.
