Is it ethical to use treatments in under-represented groups who have not been included in clinical trials?—Concerned Dermatologist Dear Dr. Dermatoethicist: Is diversity important in clinical trials? Is it ethical to use treatments in under-represented groups who have not been included in clinical trials? —Concerned Dermatologist Dear Concerned Dermatologist: Psoriasis clinical trials have included 85.2% of White patient participants.1Chen V.

Inclusion of all skin types is important for the results of clinical trials to be generalizable.4Akintilo L. Pulavarty A. Onwudiwe O. Garibyan L. Lee K.

There are known differences in the anatomy of various skin types, although some of these studies are limited and may not be generalizable to all underrepresented groups.5Wesley N.O. Maibach H.I. Racial (ethnic) differences in skin properties: the objective data.Am J Clin Dermatol. 2003; 4: 843-860Crossref PubMed Scopus (168) Google Scholar However, treatment of diverse patients with medications may not necessarily result in the outcomes reported in White patients. It is incumbent upon us to warn diverse patients that certain medications may have not been tested in underrepresented groups and to urge pharmaceutical companies to be more inclusive in future trials. Without clinical trials having been undertaken on a significant number of diverse patients, we cannot definitively preserve the beneficence and safety of our patients while trying to avoid nonmaleficence. We do not know how diverse patients will respond to a new treatment and if there will be unanticipated reduced efficacy or adverse side effects. However, it is unethical to not treat underrepresented patients with the best and newer medications. It is inherently unfair and additionally reflects a lack of justice as well as systemic inherent bias that to date clinical trial administrators have not made a greater effort to recruit underrepresented patients into clinical trials in proportion at least to their representation in our population. Finally, informed consent/truthfulness needs to be shared with these patients regarding new drugs that have not been trialed in underrepresented patients and that the outcome cannot be guaranteed. They have an autonomous right to know the risks they are taking and why (Table I).Table IEthical issues in treating underrepresented patients with therapeutics trialed on White SkinEthicsIssuesBeneficence•We cannot preserve the safety of our patients without clinical trials that include a variety of skin types.

Open table in a new tab SOC, Skin of color. Although there has recently been greater awareness regarding the need to include underrepresented patients in clinical trials, those drugs approved before this have not been proven effective or safe in diverse patients. We need to make our underrepresented patients aware that although a greater effort is now ongoing to recruit participation of diverse patients in clinical trials, there has not been appropriate accrual of diverse patients in past studies2Charrow A.

Increasing diversity in the investigators involved in clinical trials and research could potentially help rectify this situation. Dermatologists should play an active role in appropriately referring our underrepresented patients to clinical trials and being advocates for increasing diversity in clinical trials. –Dr. Dermatoethicist None disclosed." @default.
