N2 - OBJECTIVE: To determine whether African Americans (AAs) with intermediate- to high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) receive similar treatment as white patients and whether any observed disparities are narrowing with time.METHODS: We used Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results to identify 128,189 men with localized intermediate- to high-risk PCa (prostate-specific antigen ≥10 ng/mL, Gleason score ≥7, or T stage ≥T2b) diagnosed from 2004 to 2010. We used multivariate logistic regression analyses to determine the impact of race on the receipt of definitive treatment.RESULTS: AA men were significantly less likely to receive curative-intent treatment than white men (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.79-0.86; P <.001). There was no evidence of this disparity narrowing over time (Pinteraction 2010 vs 2004 = .490). Disparities in the receipt of treatment between AA and white men were significantly larger in high-risk (AOR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.56-0.64; P <.001) than in intermediate-risk disease (AOR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.88-0.97; P = .04; Pinteraction <.001). After adjusting for treatment, demographics, and prognostic factors, AA men had a higher risk of prostate cancer-specific mortality (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.12; 95% CI, 1.01-1.25; P = .03).CONCLUSION: AA men with intermediate- to high-risk PCa are less likely to be treated with curative intent than white men. This disparity is worse in high-risk disease and is not improving over time. Factors underlying this treatment disparity should be urgently studied as it is a potentially correctable contributor to excess PCa mortality among AA patients.
