Evaluation of Socioeconomic and Racial/Ethnic Disparities in All-Cause Mortality in Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer
For AYAs with cancer with similar access to care, Hispanic and NH-Black patients have higher risk of all-cause mortality than NH-White patients, whereas no significant SES-associated survival disparities were observed. These findings warrant further investigation, awareness, and intervention to address inequities in cancer care among vulnerable populations.
