Racial/ethnic disparities in curative‐intent treatment for early‐stage non‐small cell lung cancer patients among heterogeneous Black populations: <scp>US</scp>‐born Black, Afro‐Haitian, West Indian Black, and Hispanic Black
Pronounced disparities in accessing curative-intent treatments for early-stage NSCLC were evident across all Black subgroups, regardless of treatment availability and comorbidity profile. These findings underscore the need to address Black heterogeneity and prompt further research to rectify treatment disparities in early-stage NSCLC.
