Factors Associated with Advanced Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Stage in France

A single-hospital case series of 780 women with breast cancer from a university hospital in Paris. The dataset likely contains factors associated with advanced-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), which was found to be at least three times more common in patients born in Sub-Saharan Africa compared to those born in France. The data was collected by Pierre Chauvin and last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze associations between patient origin and cancer stage based on the described hospital case series
• Study disparities in triple-negative breast cancer frequency based on the reported 3x higher occurrence in Sub-Saharan African-born patients
• Investigate explanatory factors for late-stage diagnosis based on ethnographic findings like low awareness and healthcare navigation difficulties

Strengths

• Dataset is small at 5.5 KB, facilitating quick download and initial exploration
• Includes a specific finding that TNBCs were at least 3 times more common in patients born in Sub-Saharan Africa

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data scope is limited to a single-hospital case series of 780 patients
