Racial and ethnic disparities and socioeconomic determinants of male breast cancer mortality in the United States
Our findings highlight elevated mortality risks of mBC among Black patients, among Asian or Pacific Islander patients with TNBC, and associations with household income and insurance status. Interventions addressing socioeconomic inequities that impact access to cancer care programs and services may help reduce racial/ethnic disparities and improve mBC survival outcomes.
