Description
“AYAs are underrepresented in clinical trials and unfortunately have one of the highest rates of being uninsured of any population. So, this is really concerning for a lot of reasons and really impacts our ability to make a difference for their treatment and outcomes,” Stacy Whiteside, APRN, MS, CPNP-AC/PC, CPON®, nurse practitioner and fertility patient navigator in the Department of Hematology, Oncology, and Blood and Marrow Transplant at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, OH, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a discussion about increasing AYA enrollment in clinical trials. Whiteside is also the nursing representative for the Children’s Oncology Group (COG) AYA Committee.
