May 19, 2026 updated by: Institut Claudius Regaud

Prospective, multicentric, non-randomized phase II study evaluating the surgical treatment by mastectomy with immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction in patients with breast cancer and receiving adjuvant therapy by TomoTherapy +/-Chemotherapy.

Patients with non-inflammatory and non-metastatic invasive mammary carcinoma will be included in this study.

The study procedure will be a surgical treatment by mastectomy with immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction followed by an adjuvant therapy: TomoTherapy +/-Chemotherapy (radiation therapy alone or preceded by chemotherapy).

The nature of the chemotherapy treatment will be decided according to the standards of each center.
