Abstract
A series of new indole-oxadiazole derivatives was designed and synthesized to develop potential anti-breast cancer agents. The compounds exhibited significant inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 1.78 to 19.74 μM against ER-positive human breast cancer (BC) cell lines T-47D and MCF-7. Among them, compounds (5a, 5c, 5e-5h, 5j-5o) displayed superior activity against ER-α dominant (ratio of ER-α/ER-β is 9/1) T-47D cells compared to the standard drug bazedoxifene (IC50 = 12.78 ± 0.92 μM). Compounds 5c and 5o exhibited remarkable anti-proliferative activity with IC50 values of 3.24 ± 0.46 and 1.72 ± 1.67 μM against T-47D cells, respectively. Further, compound 5o manifested 1589-fold higher ER-α binding affinity (213.4 pM) relative to bazedoxifene (339.2 nM) in a competitive ER-α binding assay, while compound 5c showed a binding affinity of 446.6 nM. The Western blot analysis proved that both compounds influenced the ER-α protein's expression, impeding its subsequent transactivation and signalling pathway within T-47D cells. Additionally, a molecular docking study suggests that compounds 5c and 5o bind in such a fashion that induces conformational changes in the protein, culminating in their antagonistic effect. Also, pharmacokinetic profiles showed that all compounds have drug-like properties. Further, molecular dynamic (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) analysis confirmed the stability, conformational behaviour, reactivity, and biological feasibility of compounds 5c and 5o. In conclusion, based on our findings, compounds 5c and 5o, which exhibit significant ER-α antagonistic activity, can act as potential lead compounds for developing anti-breast cancer agents.

Abstract
Objective: Rurality is associated with higher incidence and higher disease-specific mortality for most cancers. Outcomes for rural and ultrarural ("frontier") patients with thyroid cancer are poorly understood. This study aimed to identify actionable deficits in thyroid cancer outcomes for rural patients. Methods: We queried linked California Cancer Registry and California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development databases for patients diagnosed with thyroid cancer (1999-2017). We analyzed time from disease stage at diagnosis, time from diagnosis to surgery, receipt of appropriate radioactive iodine ablation, surveillance status, and overall and disease-specific mortality for urban, rural, and frontier patients. Cox and logistic regression models controlled for clinical and demographic covariates a stepwise manner. All incidence figures are expressed as a proportion of newly diagnosed cases. Results: Our cohort comprised 92,794 subjects: (65,475 women [70.6%]; mean age 50.0 years). Compared to urban patients, rural and frontier patients were more likely to be American Indian, White, uninsured, and from lower quintiles of socioeconomic status (p < 0.01). Distant disease at diagnosis was more common in rural (56.0 vs. 50.4 cases per 1000 new cases, p < 0.01) and frontier patients (80.9 vs. 50.4 per 1000, p < 0.01) compared to urban patients. The incidence of medullary thyroid cancer was greater in rural patients (17.9 vs. 13.6 cases per 1000, p < 0.01) and frontier patients (31.0 vs. 13.6 per 1000, p < 0.01) compared to urban patients. The incidence of anaplastic thyroid cancer was higher in frontier versus urban patients (15.5 vs. 7.1 per 1000, p < 0.01). When compared to urban patients, rural and frontier patients were more often lost to follow-up (odds ratio [OR] 1.69 [confidence interval, CI 1.54-1.85], and OR 3.03 [CI 1.89-5.26], respectively) and had higher disease-specific mortality (OR 1.18 [CI 1.07-1.30], and OR 1.92 [CI 1.22-2.77], respectively). Rural and frontier residence was independently associated with being lost to follow-up, suggesting that it is a key driver of disparities. Conclusion: Compared to their urban counterparts, rural and frontier patients with thyroid cancer present with later-stage disease and experience higher disease-specific mortality. They also are more often lost to follow-up, which presents an opportunity for targeted outreach to reduce the observed disparities in outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of breast cancer among Chinese women has gradually increased in recent years. This study aims to analyze the situation of breast cancer screening programs in China and compare the cancer detection rates (CDRs), early-stage cancer detection rates (ECDRs), and the proportions of early-stage cancer among different programs. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies in multiple literature databases. Studies that were published between January 1, 2010 and June 30, 2023 were retrieved. A random effects model was employed to pool the single group rate, and subgroup analyses were carried out based on screening model, time, process, age, population, and follow-up method. RESULTS A total of 35 studies, including 47 databases, satisfied the inclusion criteria. Compared with opportunistic screening, the CDR (1.32‰, 95% CI: 1.10‰-1.56‰) and the ECDR (0.82‰, 95% CI: 0.66‰-0.99‰) were lower for population screening, but the proportion of early-stage breast cancer (80.17%, 95% CI: 71.40%-87.83%) was higher. In subgroup analysis, the CDR of population screening was higher in the urban group (2.28‰, 95% CI: 1.70‰-2.94‰), in the breast ultrasonography (BUS) in parallel with mammography (MAM) group (3.29‰, 95% CI: 2.48‰-4.21‰), and in the second screening follow-up group (2.47‰, 95% CI: 1.64‰-3.47‰), and the proportion of early-stage breast cancer was 85.70% (95% CI: 68.73%-97.29%), 88.18% (95% CI: 84.53%-91.46%), and 90.05% (95% CI: 84.07%-94.95%), respectively. CONCLUSION There were significant differences between opportunistic and population screening programs. The results of these population screening studies were influenced by the screening process, age, population, and follow-up method. In the future, China should carry out more high-quality and systematic population-based screening programs to improve screening coverage and service.

A catchment and location-allocation analysis of mammography access in Delaware, US: implications for disparities in geographic access to breast cancer screening. Breast Cancer Res 2023; 25:137.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite a 40% reduction in breast cancer mortality over the last 30 years, not all groups have benefited equally from these gains. A consistent link between later stage of diagnosis and disparities in breast cancer mortality has been observed by race, socioeconomic status, and rurality. Therefore, ensuring equitable geographic access to screening mammography represents an important priority for reducing breast cancer disparities. Access to breast cancer screening was evaluated in Delaware, a state that experiences an elevated burden from breast cancer but is otherwise representative of the US in terms of race and urban-rural characteristics. We first conducted a catchment analysis of mammography facilities. Finding evidence of disparities by race and rurality, we next conducted a location-allocation analysis to identify candidate locations for the establishment of new mammography facilities to optimize equitable access. METHODS A catchment analysis using the ArcGIS Pro Service Area analytic tool characterized the geographic distribution of mammography sites and Breast Imaging Centers of Excellence (BICOEs). Poisson regression analyses identified census tract-level correlates of access. Next, the ArcGIS Pro Location-Allocation analytic tool identified candidate locations for the placement of additional mammography sites in Delaware according to several sets of breast cancer screening guidelines. RESULTS The catchment analysis showed that for each standard deviation increase in the number of Black women in a census tract, there were 68% (95% CI 38-85%) fewer mammography units and 89% (95% CI 60-98%) fewer BICOEs. The more rural counties in the state accounted for 41% of the population but only 22% of the BICOEs. The results of the location-allocation analysis depended on which set of screening guidelines were adopted, which included increasing mammography sites in communities with a greater proportion of younger Black women and in rural areas. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study illustrate how catchment and location-allocation analytic tools can be leveraged to guide the equitable selection of new mammography facility locations as part of a larger strategy to close breast cancer disparities.

Abstract
PURPOSE Racial disparities in outcomes of breast cancer in the United States have widened over more than 3 decades, driven by complex biologic and social factors. In this review, we summarize the biological and social narratives that have shaped breast cancer disparities research across different scientific disciplines in the past, explore the underappreciated but crucial ways in which these 2 strands of the breast cancer story are interwoven, and present 5 key strategies for creating transformative interdisciplinary research to achieve equity in breast cancer treatment and outcomes. DESIGN We first review the key differences in tumor biology in the United States between patients racialized as Black versus White, including the overrepresentation of triple-negative breast cancer and differences in tumor histologic and molecular features by race for hormone-sensitive disease. We then summarize key social factors at the interpersonal, institutional, and social structural levels that drive inequitable treatment. Next, we explore how biologic and social determinants are interwoven and interactive, including historical and contemporary structural factors that shape the overrepresentation of triple-negative breast cancer among Black Americans, racial differences in tumor microenvironment, and the complex interplay of biologic and social drivers of difference in outcomes of hormone receptor positive disease, including utilization and effectiveness of endocrine therapies and the role of obesity. Finally, we present 5 principles to increase the impact and productivity of breast cancer equity research. RESULTS We find that social and biologic drivers of breast cancer disparities are often cyclical and are found at all levels of scientific investigation from cells to society. To break the cycle and effect change, we must acknowledge and measure the role of structural racism in breast cancer outcomes; frame biologic, psychosocial, and access factors as interwoven via mechanisms of cumulative stress, inflammation, and immune modulation; take responsibility for the impact of representativeness (or the lack thereof) in genomic and decision modeling on the ability to accurately predict the outcomes of Black patients; create research that incorporates the perspectives of people of color from inception to implementation; and rigorously evaluate innovations in equitable cancer care delivery and health policies. CONCLUSIONS Innovative, cross-disciplinary research across the biologic and social sciences is crucial to understanding and eliminating disparities in breast cancer outcomes.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the second most diagnosed malignancy in American women with a lifetime occurrence of 1 in 8 women in the United States. There has been a dearth of research focusing on regional differences in breast cancer mortality with respect to race in the US. It is crucial to identify regions that are lagging to uplift the outreach of breast cancer care to certain races. Data for this study were obtained from the 2016-2018 Nationwide Inpatient Sample. In-hospital mortality, race and hospital regions for the patients with the primary diagnosis of Malignant Neoplasms of Breast were studied. Baseline characteristics of participants were summarized using descriptive statistics. The patient population was stratified as per race, hospital region, gender, therapy received and family history. Logistic regression was performed to derive the odds ratio while adjusting for different variables. 99, 543 patients with metastatic breast cancer were identified. African Americans (AAs) were found to have the highest reported deaths at 5.54%, followed by Asians and Pacific Islanders at 4.80% and Caucasians 4.09% (p < 0.0001). The odds of dying were significantly higher in the AA population when compared to Caucasian population (OR 1.391 (1.286-1.504)), and the odds were consistently higher across all regions of the US. In terms of regional disparities with respect to race, AA's had highest mortality in the south whereas all other races had the highest mortality in the west. It was seen that races identifying as "others" had significantly higher odds of dying in the Northeast. It is crucial to identify racial differences in the various regions across the US in order to implement appropriate outreach strategies to tackle these disparities.

Abstract
PURPOSE Disparities in breast cancer survival have been observed within marginalized racial/ethnic groups and within the rural-urban continuum for decades. We examined whether there were differences among the intersectionality of race/ethnicity and rural residence on breast cancer outcomes. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis among 739,448 breast cancer patients using Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) 18 registries years 2000 through 2016. We conducted multilevel logistic-regression and Cox proportional hazards models to estimate adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and hazard ratios (AHRs), respectively, for breast cancer outcomes including surgical treatment, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, late-stage disease, and risk of breast cancer death. Rural was defined as 2013 Rural-Urban Continuum Codes (RUCC) of 4 or greater. RESULTS Compared with non-Hispanic white-urban (NH-white-U) women, NH-black-U, NH-black-rural (R), Hispanic-U, and Hispanic-R women, respectively, were at increased odds of no receipt of surgical treatment (NH-black-U, AOR = 1.98, 95% CI 1.91-2.05; NH-black-R, AOR = 1.72, 95% CI 1.52-1.94; Hispanic-U, AOR = 1.58, 95% CI 1.52-1.65; and Hispanic-R, AOR = 1.40, 95% CI 1.18-1.67), late-stage diagnosis (NH-black-U, AOR = 1.32, 95% CI 1.29-1.34; NH-black-R, AOR = 1.29, 95% CI 1.22-1.36; Hispanic-U, AOR = 1.25, 95% CI 1.23-1.27; and Hispanic-R, AOR = 1.17, 95% CI 1.08-1.27), and increased risks for breast cancer death (NH-black-U, AHR = 1.46, 95% CI 1.43-1.50; NH-black-R, AHR = 1.42, 95% CI 1.32-1.53; and Hispanic-U, AHR = 1.10, 95% CI 1.07-1.13). CONCLUSION Regardless of rurality, NH-black and Hispanic women had significantly increased odds of late-stage diagnosis, no receipt of treatment, and risk of breast cancer death.

Abstract
This article is the American Cancer Society's update on female breast cancer statistics in the United States, including population-based data on incidence, mortality, survival, and mammography screening. Breast cancer incidence rates have risen in most of the past four decades; during the most recent data years (2010-2019), the rate increased by 0.5% annually, largely driven by localized-stage and hormone receptor-positive disease. In contrast, breast cancer mortality rates have declined steadily since their peak in 1989, albeit at a slower pace in recent years (1.3% annually from 2011 to 2020) than in the previous decade (1.9% annually from 2002 to 2011). In total, the death rate dropped by 43% during 1989-2020, translating to 460,000 fewer breast cancer deaths during that time. The death rate declined similarly for women of all racial/ethnic groups except American Indians/Alaska Natives, among whom the rates were stable. However, despite a lower incidence rate in Black versus White women (127.8 vs. 133.7 per 100,000), the racial disparity in breast cancer mortality remained unwavering, with the death rate 40% higher in Black women overall (27.6 vs. 19.7 deaths per 100,000 in 2016-2020) and two-fold higher among adult women younger than 50 years (12.1 vs. 6.5 deaths per 100,000). Black women have the lowest 5-year relative survival of any racial/ethnic group for every molecular subtype and stage of disease (except stage I), with the largest Black-White gaps in absolute terms for hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative disease (88% vs. 96%), hormone receptor-negative/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive disease (78% vs. 86%), and stage III disease (64% vs. 77%). Progress against breast cancer mortality could be accelerated by mitigating racial disparities through increased access to high-quality screening and treatment via nationwide Medicaid expansion and partnerships between community stakeholders, advocacy organizations, and health systems.
