Measuring Racial Equity and Institutional Racism in Primary Care (EQUIP)
Kimberly Johnson, MD, MHS; Amy Corneli, PhD, MPH; and Bryce Reeve, PhD
NIH/NIHMD R01: Collaboration
Black patients receive lower quality healthcare than their White counterparts. This study will develop a measure to identify structures and processes within primary care practices that may either contribute to these disparities or improve equitable care for Black patients.
A Clinical Trial Readiness Study of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (THINK-TTP)
Theresa Coles, PhD, and Toyosi Onwuemene, MD
NIH/NCATS R21 Award
This research addresses a critical barrier to immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) clinical trial readiness – the absence of validity evidence for clinical outcome assessments (COAs) measuring cognitive function. Without validity evidence for COAs, iTTP clinical trials cannot follow FDA patient-focused drug development guidance to evaluate the effect of candidate therapies on cognitive function – the health-related quality of life outcome most important to patients. By developing a measurement strategy for cognitive function in patients with iTTP, this research will facilitate the design and conduct of future studies using COAs as clinical trial endpoints.
