Comparison of the Genomic Landscape Between Primary Breast Cancer in African American Versus White Women and the Association of Racial Differences With Tumor Recurrence.

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: African American women are more likely to die as a result of breast cancer than white women. The influence of somatic genomic profiles on this racial disparity is unclear. We aimed to compare the racial distribution of tumor genomic characteristics and breast cancer recurrence. METHODS: We assessed white and African American women with stage I to III breast cancer diagnosed from 1988 to 2013 and primary...
