Rare Disease Clinical Trials

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

When caring for an individual with a rare disease who has exhausted standard treatments or for whom there are no treatments available, exploration of clinical trials, and possibly expanded access programs, may be warranted. However, many care team members and their patients may not know where to begin with these options. In addition, a number of barriers to participation may exist for both the patient and the care team. Clinicians caring for people with rare diseases, therefore, would benefit from education about how to find appropriate trials for their patients with rare diseases, and how to overcome patient and team barriers to participation.
