Epidemiological study investigates glioblastoma genetics and survival in diverse ethnic populations, suggesting critical insights for treatment.

The study aims to explore the effects of ethnic diversity on glioblastoma markers and clinical survival outcomes.
Analyzed data from the Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) across White, African, and Asian American cohorts.
Stratified patients by the 2021 WHO classification of CNS tumors.
Evaluated population-specific genomic drivers and survival rates using Kaplan-Meier and Cox models.
White American males aged 50–60 had the highest GBM incidence.
Asian Americans showed a lower incidence rate (0.46-fold compared to Whites).
Chromosome 7 gains and chromosome 10 losses were linked to significantly lower survival rates (HR 0.798).

Chiu et al. (2026) studied this question.
