Racial disparities and treatment trends in a large cohort of elderly black and white patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: This study investigated whether there was a significant gap in receipt of treatment for nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) between blacks and whites, and whether the gap or disparity changed during the past 12 years from 1991 to 2002. METHODS: The study population consisted of 83,101 patients including 75,141 (90.4%) whites and 7960 (9.6%) blacks aged ≥65 years who were diagnosed with American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stages I‐IV NSCLC identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program's Medicare database. Age‐adjusted and sex‐adjusted rates and crude and adjusted odds ratios for receiving appropriate stage‐specific treatment of NSCLC were reported. RESULTS: For stages I‐II NSCLC combined, blacks were 37% less likely (OR, 0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.55‐0.73) to receive surgery, 42% less likely (OR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.36‐0.92) to receive chemotherapy, and for stages III‐IV combined, 57% less likely (OR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.30‐0.61) to receive chemotherapy compared with whites. Older patients, women, and those in lower socioeconomic quartiles had greater disparities in receipt of treatment compared with the highest income quartile. Disparity trends were not significantly narrowed during the past 12 years between blacks and whites for receipt of the above treatments. CONCLUSIONS: There have been substantial disparities in receiving recommended treatments between blacks and whites, and these disparities have been relatively stable without a significant trend of narrowing during the past 12 years. Efforts should focus on providing appropriate quality treatment and educating blacks on the value of having these treatments to reduce these disparities in receipt of treatment for NSCLC.

Disparities in race, sex, socioeconomic status, level of education, residence, and insurance status, among other factors, continue to be associated with outcomes such as mortality, incidence, stage at diagnosis, and timely receipt of recommended treatment for patients with NSCLC.
“The results show that disparities in race,128–131 sex,132 socioeconomic status,132–135 level of education,136 residence,128,136 and insurance status,137–139 among other factors, continue to be associated with outcomes such as mortality,128,140 incidence,137,140 stage at diagnosis, and timely receipt of recommended treatment129,131 for patients with NSCLC.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
