Core Tip Gastric cancer (GC) is a leading cancer health disparity among the Alaska Native (AN) people. The aim of this study was to evaluate recent trends in AN gastric cancer incidence and survival. AN patients differ from non-Hispanic White patients in increased incidence, younger age at diagnosis, a higher presence of non-cardia, diffuse subtype, signet ring cell carcinomas, Helicobacter pylori, and greater proportion of GC among women. AN patients diagnosed at an early stage and whom receive surgical treatment have better overall survival compared to later stage patients. Therefore, additional screening programs and early detection measures for AN people, may improve patient outcomes.
