The Cancer Patients Alliance for Clinical Trials Survivorship (CancerPACT) is an initiative aimed at increasing participation in adult cancer clinical trials, particularly among Latino and other minority groups. Focusing on areas such as Los Angeles, Sacramento, Salinas Valley in California, and Denver, Colorado, CancerPACT collaborates with local hospitals and healthcare providers to assess the effectiveness of their efforts in improving access to cancer clinical trials.
Historically, women, the elderly, and minority groups, especially Latino-Americans, have had low participation rates in cancer clinical trials. CancerPACT seeks to address this disparity by working towards a more representative and inclusive trial population, ultimately striving for better outcomes and survivorship for all cancer patients.
