Overview

Observational analysis shows disparities in survival rates among children with relapsed B-ALL, indicating race and ethnicity matter.

Key Points

  • Hispanic patients experienced worse overall survival (OS) after relapse compared to others.
  • Post-relapse OS differed by race and ethnicity, showing a significant trend (p=0.002).
  • Analysis of 2,053 B-ALL patients revealed socioeconomic status impacted survival outcomes.
  • Persistent disparities in survival highlighted the need for targeted treatment interventions.
