Compared to White patients, patients of color are less likely to undergo surgical resection for early\u2010stage disease and receive chemotherapy. This study explored the time to first treatment (T2FT), receipt of standard guideline\u2010concordant first\u2010line therapies, and overall survival in an mPDAC population by race\/ethnicity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Utilizing real\u2010world United States data from the Flatiron Health electronic health record (EHR) derived, deidentified database, T2FT was defined as the difference between the diagnosis date of mPDAC and the initiation of first\u2010line systemic anticancer therapy in days; receipt of standard\u2010guideline concordant first\u2010line therapy was defined based on the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines. We assessed disparities in T2FT and overall survival by race using Kaplan\u2013Meier curves with log\u2010rank tests and Cox proportional hazards regression models.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In the study population of interest, there was a significant difference in T2FT for Black compared to White patients. This effect is attributable to the first 2\u2009months following diagnosis. There was no evidence of a difference by race after 2\u2009months. Receipt of first\u2010line therapy and the median number of standard\u2010guidelines therapies did not significantly differ by race\/ethnicity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Implications<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our findings suggest that there is a modest difference in T2FT by race\/ethnicity in the initial time period following diagnosis of mPDAC, but no reported difference in overall survival. Additional studies using a larger, more diverse cohort of patients are recommended to better understand the effects of race\/ethnicity on the treatment and survival of patients with mPDAC.<\/jats:p>\n
