Brief Summary
This multiple site, prospective, non-randomized study has been designed to compile information on the efficacy of the Contura™ MLB in delivering APBI in appropriately selected patients through evaluation of dosimetric success as compared with a single central lumen balloon device and through treatment outcomes.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Able and willing to sign informed consent
- Age 50 or older at diagnosis
- Life expectancy greater than 10 years (excluding diagnosis of breast cancer).
- Surgical treatment of the breast must have been lumpectomy. The margins of the resected specimen must be histologically free of tumor (negative surgical margins per NSABP criteria).
- On histologic examination, the tumor must be DCIS or invasive breast carcinoma. For patients with invasive breast cancer, an axillary staging procedure must be performed. Either:
- sentinel node biopsy (SNB) alone if sentinel node(s) is/are negative; or
- axillary dissection (minimum of six axillary nodes removed); and
- the axillary node(s) must be pathologically negative.
- The T stage must be Tis, T1, or T2. If T2, the tumor must be ≤ 3.0 cm in maximum diameter.
- Estrogen receptor positive tumor
You may not qualify if:
- Age \< 50 at diagnosis (regardless of histology)
- Pregnant or breast-feeding (if appropriate, patient must use birth control during the study)
- Active collagen-vascular disease
- Paget's disease of the breast
- History of DCIS or invasive breast cancer
- Prior breast or thoracic RT for any condition
- Multicentric carcinoma (DCIS or invasive)
- Synchronous bilateral invasive or non-invasive breast cancer
- Surgical margins that cannot be microscopically assessed or that are positive or close
- Positive axillary node(s)
- T stage of T2 with the tumor \> 3 cm in maximum diameter or a T stage \> 3
- Estrogen receptor negative tumor
