Salvador Jaime-Casas, Postdoctoral Research Fellow at City of Hope, shared a post on X:
“Honored to share our latest publication! Evaluating outcomes across Latino subpopulations with localized prostate cancer
In an analysis of 7,084 patients with PC treated with RALP, we found significant differences in outcomes across Latino subpopulations
- Mexican patients had higher baseline PSA and shorter 5- and 10-year OS/BCRFS vs. other Latino subgroups
- SCA subpopulation showed better OS vs. Caribbean and Mexican pts
- Higher baseline PSA and prior hormone therapy were independently associated with high-risk disease at presentation among Latino patients
- Findings underscore the need to disaggregate Latino data in oncology research
- Future research integrating socioeconomic determinants is necessary.
Grateful with the incredible team at City of Hope Surgery.”
