Michael Roth, MD, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, discusses barriers to adolescent and young adult (AYA) participation in cancer clinical trials, highlighting the need to address system, institutional, provider, and patient-level barriers to increase enrollment. Institutions often do not open up nationally available trials due to a lack of financial incentives, while providers lack awareness within the AYA population. This interview took place at American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2025 in Chicago, IL.
