There is a disproportionate representation of diverse racial and ethnic groups when compared to the over-representation of white counterparts in clinical trials. Since race and ethnicity are known to contribute to interindividual differences in drug exposure along with responses, the risk-benefit ratio is thus altered in certain populations. At the 14th American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Conference on the Science of Cancer Health Disparities in Racial/Ethnic Minorities and the Medically Underserved, held virtually on 68 October, the results of a simulated pancreatic cancer clinical trial screening process revealed that Black patients were significantly more likely to be excluded from pancreatic clinical trials than their white counterparts.

The forum emphasised on exchange of knowledge on latest innovations and clinical trials by leaders in Interventional cardiology from both India and United States. Over 25 million heart failure cases worldwide and 8-10 million heart failure patients in India, which translates into 40% of global burden heart failure. Continue reading →

Introduction Cardiac output (CO) is the primary driver of blood pressure (BP) and is closely linked to BP. Patients with heart failure and low BP (HF-LBP) have increased rates of in- and out-of-hospital mortality. There are two important features in the pathophysiology of hospitalized patients with HF-LBP, namely congestion and low CO. Continue reading →
