Abstract
- A recent report suggested Black men with prostate cancer were more responsive to immunotherapy. Here, the authors analysed prostate cancer gene expression profiles and show tumours from Black men and men with African ancestry have an increased proportion of plasma cells compared to those of White men and this correlates with improved outcome following treatment.
