Cancer patients with HIV travel farther for clinical trials
Original: HIV patients with cancer must travel farther than others to access clinical trials
Researchers at the University of Notre Dame have found that people living with HIV who are diagnosed with cancer must travel considerably farther than other cancer patients to reach clinical trials, a disparity rooted in the historical exclusion of HIV patients from cancer research. The findings highlight how limited trial availability compounds existing barriers to care and may contribute to worse outcomes for this group.
Why now: New research from Notre Dame has drawn attention to a previously under-recognised access disparity at the intersection of HIV and cancer care.
