Increased clinical trial enrollment among adolescent and young adult cancer patients between 2006 and 2012–2013 in the United States

Stagnant outcomes for adolescents and young adults (AYAs) 15–39 years of age with cancer are partly attributed to poor enrollment onto clinical trials. Initiatives have focused on increasing accrual, but changes at the population‐level are unknown. We examined patterns of clinical trial participation over time in AYA patients with cancer.
