Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
To analyze the association between the Neighborhood Deprivation Index (NDI) and clinical outcomes of locoregional breast cancer (BC).
Methods
Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database is queried to evaluate overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) of early- stage BC patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2016. Cox multivariate regression was performed to measure the association between NDI (Quintiles corresponding to most deprivation (Q1), above average deprivation (Q2), average deprivation (Q3), below average deprivation (Q4), least deprivation (Q5)) and OS/DSS.
Results
Of the 88,572 locoregional BC patients, 27.4% (n = 24,307) were in the Q1 quintile, 26.5% (n = 23,447) were in the Q3 quintile, 17% (n = 15,035) were in the Q2 quintile, 13.5% (n = 11,945) were in the Q4 quintile, and 15.6% (n = 13,838) were in the Q5 quintile. There was a predominance of racial minorities in the Q1 and Q2 quintiles with Black women being 13–15% and Hispanic women being 15% compared to only 8% Black women and 6% Hispanic women in the Q5 quintile (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, in the overall cohort, those who live in Q2 and Q1 quintile have inferior OS and DSS compared to those who live in Q5 quintile (OS:- Q2: Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.28, Q1: HR 1.2; DSS:- Q2: HR 1.33, Q1: HR 1.25, all p < 0.001).
Conclusion
Locoregional BC patients from areas with worse NDI have poor OS and DSS. Investments to improve the socioeconomic status of areas with high deprivation may help to reduce healthcare disparities and improve breast cancer outcomes.
