Overview

Retrospective cohort analysis reveals survival differences in hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated with systemic therapies, indicating ethnic disparities in healthcare access.

Key Points

Asian and Hispanic patients demonstrated better overall survival compared to White patients undergoing systemic therapy.
Patients receiving novel systemic therapies showed improved survival rates, with Asian patients more likely to access these treatments.
Black and Hispanic patients had similar rates of treatment receipt, highlighting potential inequalities in healthcare access.
Racial differences in survival outcomes worsened over time, emphasizing the need for further research into these disparities.
