Community Conversations: Real World Strategies for Tackling Disparities in Immunotherapy Cancer Care

Health inequities across varying socioeconomic and racial/ethnic groups continue to persist in cancer care, especially with access to lifesaving immunotherapy treatment. To ensure more optimized use of immunotherapies, clinicians need to understand the ongoing barriers and implement tactics to best address disparities within their own practice amongst their diverse patient populations with cancer.

Another significant gap related to optimal immunotherapy use relates to the proper recognition and management of immune-related adverse events (irAEs). All those on the interdisciplinary oncology team need to better grasp how to evaluate and mitigate irAEs, especially in patients with cancer who are challenged by health disparities.
