Delay, stage of disease, and survival among White and Black women with breast cancer.

D I Gregorio, K M Cummings and A Michalek

Delay in obtaining treatment, stage of disease at diagnosis, and five-year survival were compared for 29 Black and 156 White females treated for breast cancer at Roswell Park Memorial Institute between 1957 and 1965. No statistically significant differences were found between Black and White patients in treatment delay although a tendency for longer delay among Blacks was noted. Race had little effect on survival when delay, stage of disease, and age were controlled.
