Disparities in the treatment of patients with IL-2 for metastatic renal cell carcinoma
Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations, 06/08/09
Saigal CS et al. - African Americans and women were much less likely to be treated with IL-2 after controlling for relevant clinical variables. These data document that the only therapy offering a complete response to patients with mRCC is less frequently given to those who are African American or female. It is possible that the racial and gender-based disparities in treatment with IL-2 will be replicated with newer, expensive treatment options for mRCC.
