e12575Background: Breast Cancer (BC) has been classified into four subtypes: Luminal A (LABC), Luminal B (LBBC), Triple negative (TNBC) and HER2-enriched (HER2e). BC mortality in Black women is significantly higher than in Whites and Asians. BC in Blacks has been characterized by higher grade and later stage. Causes of the Black-White BC survival disparity have been investigated, including differences in: diagnostic stage, socioeconomics, and comorbidities. These have led researchers to investigate the differences in tumor molecular subtype and their association with clinical outcomes and races. Methods: This study used the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results – 18 (SEER-18) Registries research data between 2010 and 2013 that included over 212,000 patients. Descriptive statistics, Odds ratios (OR) and 95%Confidence intervals (CI) were used to study the association between BC stage, grade, and mortality and BC molecular subtypes across different races. We employed Cox regression models to explore th...
