SUMMARY:Advancing Women’s Participation in Clinical Trials: Barriers\, Innovations\, and Actionable Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Women have historically been underrepresented in clinical trials\, leading to critical gaps in understanding how diseases present\, progress\, and respond to treatment across the female lifespan. Biological factors\, such as hormonal changes\, as well as social and structural barriers—including caregiving responsibilities\, limited access to trial sites\, and lack of awareness—have contributed to lower participation. As a result\, treatments may be less optimized for women\, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds. Improving women’s participation in clinical trials is essential to generating more accurate\, inclusive evidence\, advancing health equity\, and ensuring that medical innovations are safe\, effective\, and responsive to the diverse needs of all women. \nSWHR hosted a webinar to bring together perspectives from research\, advocacy\, and lived experience to explore the barriers limiting women’s participation in clinical trials and highlight actionable strategies to improve inclusion\, equity\, and engagement across the research lifecycle.
