Abstract

Opportunities exist to promote inclusive cancer care and clinical research to reduce disparity and achieve health equity. Through raising awareness of the nuances of the clinical encounter to promote inclusivity as well as reducing barriers to access and enrollment in clinical trials, a more complete understanding regarding the spectrum of disease and opportunity for inclusive cancer care can be achieved.
