The FDA Office of Minority Health and Health Equity (OMHHE) in collaboration with the University of Maryland Center of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (M-CERSI) will host a virtual public workshop: "Collaborating to Advance Health Equity for Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease" on Wednesday, February 10, 2021 from 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM ET.

This event aims to advance attendees' understanding of the following:

  • Leveraging patient experience data and community/system approaches to inform care, drug development and overall research agenda to improve patient outcomes and reduce health inequities for diverse communities with diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD).
  • Explore barriers to diversity in clinical trials for CKD and diabetes and strategies to improve diversity in clinical trials.
  • Utilization of real-world data to inform strategies and decision making on the management of diabetes and CKD.

Regulatory Impact:

This workshop supports the Office of Minority Health and Health Equity's (OMHHE) mission; the 21st Century Cures Act to understand patient perspectives; and the 2012 Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (FDASIA Section 907), an effort to advance inclusion of racial and ethnic minority populations in clinical trials.
