Objective: To examine the effectiveness of current community-based participatory research (CBPR) clinical trials involving racial and ethnic minorities.

Data Sources: All published peer-reviewed CBPR intervention articles in PubMed and CINAHL databases from January 2003 to May 2010.

Study Design: We performed a systematic literature review.

Data Collection/Extraction Methods: Data were extracted on each study’s characteristics, community involvement in research, subject recruitment and retention, and intervention effects.

Principal Findings: We found 19 articles meeting inclusion criteria. Of these, 14 were published from 2007 to 2010. Articles described some measures of community participation in research with great variability. Although CBPR trials examined a wide range of behavioral and clinical outcomes, such trials had very high success rates in recruiting and retaining minority participants and achieving significant intervention effects.
