Most cancer patients are treated outside big academic hospitals, but most trials are run inside them. Requiring a share of sites to be community practices would bring trials to where patients are.
Regulators and public funders would expect registrational trials to open at least 30 percent of sites in community oncology practices and non-metropolitan hospitals, supported by hub-and-spoke oversight from an academic centre (the NCORP model). Sponsors report site mix in the application and diversity plan.
