Ten Fraction Adjuvant Hypofractionated Radiotherapy in Node Positive Breast Cancer (HIPOMAMMLINF)

March 9, 2021 updated by: Paola Pinnaro, Regina Elena Cancer Institute

a Feasibility Study of Accelerated Hypofractionated Radiotherapy in Node Positive Breast Cancer Patients Treated With Surgery

Post-operative loco-regional (LR) hypofractionated radiotherapy (Hypo-RT) is an attractive approach in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC).

Detailed Description

The present is a single arm phase II study assessing toxicity levels after 34 Gy/10 fxs/2 wks to the whole breast/chest wall and to the draining lymph nodes; an optional single fraction 8 Gy boost was administered with electrons to the tumor bed in patients who had undergone conservative surgery. Both acute (CTCAE v4.0) and late (LENT/SOMA) toxicity were collected. All pts but those who underwent mastectomy without reconstruction or with temporary expander were also asked to rate their cosmetic outcome according to the Harvard. Toxicity was assessed weekly during RT and then at each follow-up examination (1, 3, 6 months and then yearly).

  • ECOG Performance status ≤2;
  • histologically negative surgical margins
  • no distant metastases
  • no prior chest radiotherapy
  • life expectancy ≥ 5 years

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Non-epithelial breast cancer (sarcoma, lymphoma etc.)
  • Metastases at the level of the internal chain mammary and / or supra-clavicular lymph nodes histologically assessed
  • pT4 neoplasms or inflammatory breast carcinoma
