Breast cancer disparities in outcomes; unmasking biological determinants associated with racial and genetic diversity
Open accessAbstract
Breast cancer (BC) remains a leading cause of death among women today, and mortality among African American women in the US remains 40% higher than that of their White counterparts, despite reporting a similar incidence of disease over recent years. Previous meta-analyses and studies of BC mortality highlight that tumor characteristics, rather than socio-economic factors, drive excess mortality among African American women with BC. This is further complicated by the heterogeneity of BC, where BC can more appropriately be defined as a collection of diseases rather than a single disease. Molecular phenotyping and gene expression profiling distinguish subtypes of BC, and these subtypes have distinct prognostic outcomes. Racial disparities transcend these subtype-specific outcomes, where African American women suffer higher mortality rates among all BC subtypes. The most striking differences are observed among the most aggressive molecular subtype, triple-negative BC (TNBC), where incidence and mortality are significantly higher among African American women compared to all other race/ethnicity groups. We and others have shown that this predisposition for triple-negative disease may be linked to shared west African ancestry, where the highest rates of TNBC are observed among west African nations, and these high frequencies follow into the African diaspora. Genetic and molecular characterization of breast tumors among subtypes and racial/ethnic groups have begun to identify targets with future therapeutic potential, but more work needs to be done to identify targeted treatment options for all women who suffer from BC.

Genetic ancestry may be causally related to some genetic traits and diseases, unlike the social construct of race.
“Fairness and diversity have especially important considerations in such applications given that genetic ancestry may be causally related to some genetic traits and diseases (178, 183-186), as opposed to the social construct of race (173).”

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.
