The impact of patient biology on racial disparities in breast cancer outcome

This study identifies molecular differences in HR+ breast cancer between Black and White women, linking structural factors like poverty to tumor biology and immune signatures.

Prostate cancer risk stratification improved across multiple ancestries with new polygenic hazard score

The paper improves prostate cancer risk stratification across multiple ancestries using a new polygenic hazard score with additional SNPs, showing higher hazard ratios and positive predictive value for clinically significant prostate cancer.

Performance of African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score varies according to local ancestry in 8q24

The paper assesses how the performance of an African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score varies with local ancestry in 8q24 using genetic data from 6,253 men with African ancestry.
