A study of 450 mTNBC patients in community practices found high biomarker testing rates and encouraging outcomes across racial groups, with Hispanic patients showing the longest survival. However, Black women of West African ancestry face the highest TNBC incidence and greater neuropathy from paclitaxel, making docetaxel a potential alternative. Social determinants like neighborhood deprivation and allostatic load are also linked to TNBC risk.
