      Multifactorial Causes of Racial Disparities

      Clinical Trial Representation

      Key Themes:

      • Black men are significantly underrepresented in prostate cancer clinical trials (<5% in most studies).
      • Many trials fail to provide race-specific data.
      • The ARANOTE study achieved 10% representation of Black men.
      • Representation is critical for both clinicians and patients to understand treatment applicability.

      Key Points for Physicians:

      • Consider the racial composition of clinical trials when evaluating evidence.
      • Note the stronger evidence base for darolutamide in Black men from ARANOTE.
      • Acknowledge limitations in data generalizability when discussing treatment options with patients.

      Notable Insights: The 10% representation in ARANOTE, although still below the proportion of Black men in the prostate cancer population, represents a significant improvement over typical enrollment patterns and enables more meaningful subgroup analysis.

      Clinical Significance: Improved representation in the ARANOTE study provides a stronger evidence base for treatment decisions in Black men with mHSPC.
