BACPAC is addressing the alarming prostate cancer disparities affecting Black men through innovative patient-centered research that transforms how cancer care is delivered. Black men are 2-2.4 times more likely to die from prostate cancer and 60-70% more likely to be diagnosed with aggressive forms, making this community-driven approach essential for creating effective solutions.
• BACPAC stands for Black and African Descent Collaborative for Prostate Cancer Action.
• The organization brings together researchers, patient advisors, and community members.
• Black men often face barriers when requesting PSA screening despite higher risk factors.
• Current research projects include STAR (post-surgery care), GEMS (aggressive cancer factors), and resource toolkit development.
• Virtual research community connects over 2,500 people, including 1,500+ prostate cancer survivors.
• Patient advisors provide critical insights that shape research questions and methodologies.
• Research focuses on solutions rather than just documenting existing disparities.
• Cultural context matters – many Black men prefer PSA blood tests over digital rectal exams.
• The organization aims to become independent to influence prostate cancer research nationally.
• The annual symposium on October 4th will share research findings and build community connections.
