Racial/ethnic and sex disparities in mortality among US cancer survivors
In this mixed population of cancer survivors, a higher burden of social and behavioral risk factors was associated with increased mortality. The findings underscore the critical need to integrate SDoH assessment and mitigation into long-term survivorship care to address social determinants and health behaviors to promote equity in survivorship outcomes. Future research with detailed clinical data is needed to disentangle the effects of cancer type and stage from post-diagnostic factors.
