Lung cancer remains the leading cancer-related death across North America. Imaging is fundamental. Recently, healthcare disparities came into research focus. Our aim was to explore disparity from an imaging, genetic, and outcome perspective. We utilized the AACR Project GENIE Biopharma Consortium (BPC) dataset v 1.1 to build a collated NSCLC dataset. Descriptive and analytical statistics were applied according to data characteristics. From 1849 patients, mean age was 64.4 y (±10.5), 58% ( n = 1065) were female, 23% ( n = 419) never smoked, 84% ( n = 1545) were of white race, and 57% ( n = 1052) were &lt; stage III. No difference ( p &gt; 0.05) was found for baseline imaging by race. White race showed higher 3-month surveillance imaging ( p = 0.048) and a baseline stage &lt; IV (OR 0.61). KRAS (33.3 vs. 17.9%), STK11 (14.8 vs. 7.3%), and KEAP1 (13.3 vs. 5.3%) mutations were predominant among white patients while EGFR mutation (19.2 vs. 44.1%) was less predominant. Mutations in TP53 or KEAP1 had worse PFS and OS. The latter was also reduced in STK11, KRAS + STK11, and KRAS + KEAP1 mutations. Meanwhile, EGFR mutation had increased OS. Multivariate analysis showed that progression on imaging at 3 or 6 months (HR 1.69 and 1.43, respectively), TP53 (HR 1.37) and KRAS (HR 1.26) had lower OS while EGFR and LRP1B (HR 0.69 and 0.39, respectively) had higher OS. No racial disparity at baseline imaging was observed. Higher initial stages among non-white patients might reflect inequalities in accessing healthcare. However, race wasn't associated to OS. Finally, progression in imaging at 3 or 6 months showed the higher hazard ratios for death.
