Improving Racial and Ethnic Equity in Clinical Trials Enrolling Pregnant and Lactating Individuals.

Racial and ethnic marginalized populations have historically been poorly represented, underrecruited, and underprioritized across clinical trials enrolling pregnant and lactating individuals. The objectives of this review are to describe the current state of racial and ethnic representation in clinical trials enrolling pregnant and lactating individuals and to propose evidence-based tangible solutions to achieving equity in these clinical trials. Despite efforts from federal and local organizations, only marginal progress has been made toward achieving equity in clinical research.
