AB  - BACKGROUND: Non-Hispanic black women (NHB) are diagnosed with triple negative 
      breast cancer (TNBC) more often than other ethnic or racial groups in the United 
      States (US). This study describes regional differences in TNBC incidence among 
      NHB women in the US from 2011 to 2015. METHODS: We analyzed data from the United 
      States Cancer Statistics (USCS) that includes incidence data from the Centers for 
      Disease Control and Prevention's National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) and 
      the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results 
      (SEER) programs. RESULTS: Compared to the incidence rate for NHB women in the 
      South, rates were significantly lower in the Northeast (22.6 per 100,000), higher 
      in the Midwest (25.5 per 100,000) and similar in the West. These regional 
      differences might be explained by genetic admixture among people with different 
      geographic ancestral origins. CONCLUSIONS: Results from this study highlight the 
      need to extend etiological research and evidence-based cancer prevention and 
      control efforts to women at high risk of this disease in order to decrease cancer 
      disparities.
