In this podcast episode, Adam B. Murphy, MD, MBA, MSCI, discusses the need to increase diversity in clinical trials, specifically focusing on studies in prostate cancer.

“These findings suggest that guideline recommended treatment intensification remains low for patients with mCSPC in both Medicare and the Veterans Health Administration, but especially for Black patients,” says Daniel J. George, MD.
