Abstract

Gynaecological cancers are the most prevalent cancers in women, making them a major public health concern for decades. Health disparities and inequalities in access to care among different racial groups have been a major concern in the US healthcare system. This study was aimed at investigating cause-specific survival rates among non-white women with gynaecological cancer and to identify risk factors associated with gynaecological cancer mortality by race. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate 5-year survival estimates and various risk factors for gynaecological cancer among non-white women were analysed using Cox proportional hazard model. The findings of this study highlight the need for targeted interventions to improve access to care and reduce health disparities for non-white women with gynaecological cancer.
