Overview

Systematic review shows racial and ethnic disparities in survival rates for cholangiocarcinoma, indicating a need for improved treatment strategies.

Key Points

  • Black patients with cholangiocarcinoma showed worse survival outcomes compared to White patients with a pooled hazard ratio of 1.05.
  • Hispanic and Asian patients had better survival rates than White patients, with pooled hazard ratios of 0.86 and 0.88 respectively.
  • Less likely to present at an earlier stage, Black and Hispanic patients also had lower rates of surgical resection.
  • Addressing these racial and ethnic disparities in survival could promote health equity and improve patient outcomes.
