Findings indicate that racial and ethnic disparities in breast cancer outcomes were influenced by a complex interplay of biological, social, and systemic factors. Black women were more likely to have aggressive tumor phenotypes, such as luminal B and basal-like subtypes, which contributed to poorer outcomes. These disparities persist even after adjusting for genomic assay results and molecular subtypes, suggesting that genomic factors alone cannot fully explain differences in clinical outcomes.
