Logistic regression for ALK alterations evaluating Hispanic ethnicity and controlling for site of treatment, age at initial diagnosis, gender, and smoking
History
ARTICLE ABSTRACT
This study identified a higher incidence of ALK alterations in Hispanic patients with NSCLC (12.76%) compared with that in non-Hispanic patients (5.36%) treated at a large academic center in Los Angeles, highlighting the impact of race on molecular alteration profiles and emphasizing the need to increase access to molecular analyses for this population. The variability in mutational alterations may be influenced by biological and environmental factors.
