Abstract

Historical and contemporary data consistently show Black men have a higher incidence of prostate cancer and experience worse oncologic outcomes.1 While the precise cause of these disparities remains unclear, a growing number of publications indicate that socioeconomic status (SES) and environmental exposures, also referred to as social determinants of health (SDOH), are substantial drivers of these differences. In this article, DeRouen et al. examine the relationship between neighborhood archetypes and racial/ethnic disparities seen in prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM) and overall survival (OS).
