Prostate Cancer Racial Disparities



September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month and despite great strides in prostate cancer care over the past several years, racial disparities in care persist.

Black and Hispanic men have a high burden of prostate cancer mortality. Prostate cancer affects 1 in 8 men, with the number rising to 1 in 6 for black men and comprises more than 1 in 5 of all new cancer diagnoses for Hispanic men.
