Hispanic patients participating in SWOG trials who received uniform treatment and follow-up were found to have similar survival outcomes compared with non-Hispanic patients, with the single exception of those patients with advanced stage prostate cancer. The results of the current study demonstrate that Hispanic patients receiving uniform treatment and follow-up have similar outcomes compared with non-Hispanics.
