NCT01000662

Brief Summary

All patients (with Stages 0-II breast cancer) will receive an accelerated three week regimen of prone whole breast radiotherapy. The study intends to test the hypothesis that a weekly boost to the tumor bed, delivered on Friday, before the weekend break, is as well tolerated as the daily boost during accelerated prone radiotherapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Acute Radiation Toxicities Recorded According to Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG)

    Number of patients with a grade 2 or greater toxicity after 3 weeks of whole breast IMRT with a once/week boost compared to those patients treated with a daily boost: 0 - no symptoms, 5 - death directly related to radiation effects

    Day 60

Secondary Outcomes (12)

  • Average Score on Breast Cancer Treatment Outcomes Scale (BCTOS) at Baseline

    Baseline

  • Score on "SF-36 v2 Vitality" Scale

    Baseline

  • Average Score on Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) Scale

    Baseline

  • Average Score on Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) Breast Quality of Life Scale

    Baseline

  • Average Score on Breast Cancer Treatment Outcomes Scale (BCTOS) at the End of Treatment

    At the end of Treatment, an average of 3 weeks

  • +7 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Radiation Therapy

Radiation: Weekly Radiation Therapy

Interventions

15 daily radiation fractions of 2.7 Gy, Monday to Friday for 3 weeks, to the whole breast with a daily concomitant boost of 0.5 Gy to the tumor bed, for a total daily dose of 3.2 Gy to the tumor bed (2.7Gy+0.5 Gy). The overall dose will be 40.5 Gy to the breast and 48.0 Gy to the tumor bed.

ARM 1 daily boost

15 weekly radiation fractions of 2.7 Gy Monday to friday for three weeks to the entire breast with a Friday boost of 2.0 Gy to the tumor bed, for a total dose to the tumor bed on each friday of 4.7 Gy (2.7 Gy+ 2.0 Gy). The overall dose will be 40.5 Gy to the breast and 46.5 gy to the tumor bed.

ARM 2 weekly boost
