Evaluation of a Once Per Day Regimen of Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation for Improved Breast Appearance in Pts w/Low Risk, Hormone Responsive Brst Ca (NCT06008158)
Prospective Evaluation of a Once Per Day Regimen of Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation in Low-Risk, Hormone-Responsive Breast Cancer
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This phase II trial tests how well accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) delivered once per day works in ensuring an acceptable breast appearance in patients with low risk, hormone responsive breast cancer. APBI uses precise radiation beams to kill cancerous cells in a smaller area of the breast (partial breast) instead of the whole breast or chest area as in standard therapy. Additionally, APBI is given in a shorter course of treatment than whole breast radiation therapy, over fewer days instead of several weeks, with a lower total dose of radiation. APBI is currently given every other business day for a total of 5 treatments with excellent results; however, a shorter treatment duration could have similar or even better results. Undergoing APBI every day on consecutive business days for 5 treatments may result in an improved breast appearance for patients with low risk hormone responsive breast cancer.
