From 1999 to 2019, rates of cancer deaths declined steadily among Black people in the United States. Nevertheless, in 2019, Black people still had considerably higher rates of cancer death than people in other racial and ethnic groups, according to a large epidemiologic study led by NCI researchers.
Black patients are less likely than patients of other races and ethnicities to receive autologous hematopoietic cell transplants for multiple myeloma, according to a study published in the April issue of Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma, and Leukemia.
