Experts voice the need for comparing traditional clinical trials to decentralized trials

There's one question that Hollings Cancer Center researcher Jennifer Dahne, Ph.D., co-director of the remote and virtual trials program at the South Carolina Clinical & Translational Research Institute, hears more than any other as she consults with clinical researchers about how to set up remote trials, also known as decentralized trials. Will these trials overcome the barriers that make it difficult for minority and underserved populations to participate in clinical trials? It's also a question she often discusses with her peers at other academic medical centers that are also home to Clinical and Translational Science Award hubs.
