Racial and socioeconomic disparities in glioblastoma outcomes: A single‐center, retrospective cohort study

Abstract

To best personalize treatment for and understand the causes of glioblastoma, racial and socioeconomic influences must be examined. The authors report their experience at the O'Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center in the deep south. In this report, contemporary molecular diagnostic data are included. The authors conclude that there are significant racial and socioeconomic disparities that influence glioblastoma outcome and that African American patients do better.
