Abstract C44: Endometrial carcinoma recurrence in black and white women in the NRG Oncology/Gynecologic Oncology Group 210 trial

CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides evidence that racial disparities in endometrial carcinoma recurrence risk vary by histologic subtype. Socioeconomic factors do not explain black-white differences in endometrial carcinoma recurrence risk. Future studies exploring the role of biological factors and post-diagnosis surveillance contributing to racial differences in endometrial carcinoma recurrence are warranted.Citation Format: Ashley S.
