Summit for Health Equity: Encouraging Health Equity and Diversity in FDA-Regulated Clinical Trials

October 25, 2023

Foley Hoag presented our first-ever hybrid half-day Summit for Health Equity in which we – through four presentations and panel discussions – provided an overview and analysis of the latest issues surrounding health equity and social determinants of health in the U.S. The Summit convened multi-disciplinary lawyers and leaders across the healthcare vertical for engaging dialogue and education.

Encouraging Health Equity and Diversity in FDA-Regulated Clinical Trials

This session provided an overview of various efforts that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has taken to encourage sponsors to increase the participation of diverse groups in clinical trials to better represent the populations that could potentially benefit from the medical interventions being studied. We also discussed how medical product companies can help bridge the gap in health equity and diversity through advertising, promotion, and other relevant communications in an FDA-compliant manner.
