Abstract in brief

Prostate cancer is a major health issue in the US, being the second leading cause of cancer-related death among men, with recent data showing a rise in distant stage cases starting around 2010.
While survival rates for localized prostate cancer are very high (approaching 100%), the survival rate for distant stage prostate cancer has gradually improved but remains lower, with variations observed across different racial and ethnic groups.
Understanding how prostate cancer incidence and survival differ by stage, race/ethnicity, and age can help shape better screening, treatment, and survivor support strategies, and further research is needed to address disparities in outcomes.
