Multiple myeloma has twice the incidence and death rate in Black people, compared with White people. Yet, Black people are half as likely to undergo a stem cell transplantation despite having similar, if not better, survival rates compared to White people, when given standard of care treatment. Chasms in early diagnosis, treatment options and access, survival rate, and more, remain for racial and ethnic underserved populations. A culmination of biases, disparities, and inequities continues a cycle of inadequate oncology treatment for multiple myeloma, thus resulting in delayed diagnosis, and suboptimal clinical management prognosis, and survival rate.
In this CME Outfitters BriefCase, faculty experts will guide learners through a patient case scenario reflecting the impact of biases, disparities, and health inequities that reduce the quality of oncology care for racial and ethnic underserved patients with multiple myeloma. This program will provide actionable strategies, empowering attendees to recognize factors and implement changes in practice to improve multiple myeloma treatment.
