Abstract Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a very aggressive form of breast cancer and Black American (BA) women face disproportionately higher mortality rates than White American (WA) women. The molecular mechanism behind this disparate clinical outcome remains poorly understood. We find that BA TNBC patients exhibit higher protein expression of KRT17 compared to WA TNBC and non-TNBC patients and correlates to poor distant metastasis-free survival.
