Patients with lung cancer from minority groups receive more intense end-of-life care, often in hospitals against their preferences, leading to lower quality of life and higher costs.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of death in the U.S., with a low survival rate due to late-stage diagnoses, highlighting the importance of improving end-of-life care.
Disparities exist in lung cancer mortality among minority groups, but there is less understanding of the intensity of care provided at end of life, prompting further research and intervention.
