Recruitment & Regulatory Preparation

Within this service there is a unique focus upon enhancing accrual of minority and underserved populations to population science, cancer control, and clinical research. Led by Ms. Cecilia DeGraffinreid, MHS, RHIA, this service identifies and facilitates the accrual of human subjects from the OSU Medical Center hospital, clinics and cancer center, and, importantly, the community. To facilitate the latter Ms. DeGraffinreid liaisons with referral sources outside of the cancer center to increase the numbers of patients accrued to clinical trials. This service of the BMSR works in collaboration with the James Cancer Hospital Diversity Enhancement Program and the OSUCCC Clinical Trials Office to effectively coordinate efforts and maximize all resources in order to create a larger, more diverse accrual base.
