Analyzing Clinical Outcomes and Genomic Data of American Indian Patient Population
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to describe the outcomes in American Indian patients receiving immunotherapy in a multi-institution retrospective study at several other high-volume centers that care for this patient population and to identify any healthcare disparities that can lead to future interventional studies.

Detailed Description
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have been shown to increase survival in metastatic solid tumor patients when compared to the previously standard of care chemotherapy. Epidemiologic studies of American Indian cancer patients demonstrated having significantly worse survival when compared with Caucasians when controlled for age, sex, alcohol abuse, smoking, insurance, and disease stage.
There are no current studies specifically examining the American Indian population receiving treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. The aim is to describe the outcomes in American Indian patients receiving immunotherapy in a multi-institution retrospective study at several other high-volume centers that care for this patient population and to identify any healthcare disparities that can lead to future interventional studies.
