Neeraj Agarwal shared a post on X about a recent paper by Chadi Hage Chehade et al. published in JAMA Network Open, commenting:
“Just in JAMA Network Open.
Unacceptably low rates of NGS testing in metastatic Prostate Cancer and bladder cancer in real world patients (worse in Black and Hispanic patients), Flatiron Health.
Proud of our postdoc, Chadi, Yeonjung, George and the team for terrific mentoring by Umang Swami, GU Cancer Research Program.”
