About this study
In plain language
This study looks at how moving to the U.S. affects prostate cancer care and life after cancer for Black immigrant men from sub-Saharan Africa and the Caribbean. It explores how race, social life, surroundings, habits, and systems affect their health and quality of life.
This trial is aimed to better understand the impact of migration history on the quality of life of Black immigrant CaP survivors (both SSAI and CI). We will illuminate the full range of racial, social, environmental, behavioral, and structural factors associated with the Black immigrant experience in the US using a SDOH model.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
