Ensuring Equity Throughout Every Step of the Research and Development Process
There is a lack of easily accessible information highlighting the prevalence and severity of diseases among minority and under-represented groups. This is particularly challenging at the bedside where daily decisions are made about preventive and therapeutic interventions for individual patients with specific health conditions.
At Pfizer, we’re passionate about ensuring equity is prioritized throughout every step of the R&D process. To help address this, we undertook a literature review of the diseases in our pipeline, and created a “heatmap” to highlight the health disparities and inequities that exist in 38 diseases across race and ethnicity in the United States. This heatmap is the first completed initiative under ITEM – the Institute of Translational Equitable Medicine.
