As the largest public funder of biomedical research in the world, the National Institutes of Health (“NIH”) annually funds over $38 billion in extramural research, including about $6 billion for clinical trials. On May 28, 2024, OIG published a report (“OIG Report”) summarizing its finding that, of the NIH‑funded clinical trials randomly selected by OIG for review, a majority failed to meet NIH’s requirements for inclusion of diverse trial participants.
