Interviews were conducted by the same interviewer, with concordance in race between the interviewer and interviewees.

Six were male, married, and treated with a hypomethylating agent. Seven patients had secondary AML. Themes were broadly categorized under (1) the diagnosis and treatment experience, (2) challenges that arose, and (3) coping strategies. Unique findings included the experience of bias during the initial diagnosis period (but not during treatment decision-making discussions), and the overwhelming role of faith\/religion\/spirituality in coping. Other notable themes included trust, shock and urgent decision making, diverse support systems, physical limitations, the psychological impact, and financial constraints.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Interviewed Black patients with newly diagnosed AML reported bias in the initial diagnosis period, possibly racially motivated, but did not feel this was at play in treatment discussions. The importance of faith\/religion\/spirituality in coping was also highlighted. Interventions focused on implicit bias training and supporting spiritual needs are critical to improve the experience of Black patients with AML and provide equitable care to all patients with AML.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/26892820251403847","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,10]],"date-time":"2026-02-10T17:35:50Z","timestamp":1770744950000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Qualitative Study of the Initial Diagnosis and Treatment Experience of Black Patients with Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Allison O.","family":"Taylor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Hematologic Malignancies and Cellular Therapy, Department of Medicine, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laura J.","family":"Fish","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Duke Cancer Institute, Behavioral Health, and Survey Research Core (BHSRC), Durham, North Carolina, USA."},{"name":"Department of Family Medicine and Community Health, Duke School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kris W.","family":"Herring","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Duke Cancer Patient Experience Research Program, Duke Cancer Institute, Durham, North Carolina, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jordan","family":"Infield","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Hematologic Malignancies and Cellular Therapy, Department of Medicine, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kimberly S.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Division of Geriatrics, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina, USA."},{"name":"Geriatrics Research, Education and Clinical Center (GRECC), Veterans Affairs Health Care System, Durham, North Carolina, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas W.","family":"LeBlanc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Duke Cancer Patient Experience Research Program, Duke Cancer Institute, Durham, North Carolina, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","unstructured":"Institute NC. \u201cCancer Stat Facts: Leukemia\u2014Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).\u201d Available from: https:\/\/seer.cancer.gov\/statfacts\/html\/amyl.html [Last accessed: July5 2023]."},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1158\/2159-8290.Cd-20-1579"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood-2017-04-778225"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/bloodadvances.2017007013"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1158\/1055-9965.Epi-14-0963"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21873\/anticanres.11057"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/bloodadvances.2018019125"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0174760"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/bloodadvances.2021005148"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood.2021012830"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s40487-022-00200-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/pon.4309"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1049732315617444"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/2159676X.2019.1704846"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_3_2_16_2","first-page":"21","article-title":"\u201cThe Control Preferences Scale","volume":"29","author":"Degner LF","year":"1997","unstructured":"Degner LF, , Sloan JA, , Venkatesh P. \u201cThe Control Preferences Scale.
