Inclusion in Trials

AbbVie embeds inclusion strategies throughout the clinical development process, focusing on removing unintentional barriers and expanding participation among underserved groups.

Advancing Access and Representation in Clinical Research

Our Patient Inclusion team at AbbVie is dedicated to making clinical trials accessible and representative for all populations. Our work centers on three key areas: improving clinical patient access, advancing patient centricity and engagement, and building strategic external partnerships.

We integrate patient voices into every aspect of trial design and planning, collecting insights from patients, caregivers, and communities to better understand lived experiences and unmet needs. These insights directly inform our study design and enhance the overall trial experience.

By cultivating and maintaining strategic partnerships, we broaden our reach and foster trust in the communities we serve. We leverage data and insights to guide our disease strategies and uphold accountability. Our commitment is to ensure our clinical trial programs truly reflect and serve the patients they are intended for.
