December 30, 2025 updated by: Janie Grumley, Saint John's Cancer Institute

Oncoplastic Partial Mastectomy With Intraoperative Radiation Therapy (IORT) in Early Stage Breast Cancer Patients With Prior History of Chest Wall Radiation

Prospective, Non-randomized, Single-arm.The objectives of this study are to evaluate cosmesis and perioperative complications associated with the use of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) at the time of partial mastectomy in patients with breast cancer and a prior history of radiation therapy. Secondary objectives include evaluating effectiveness of partial mastectomy with IORT, measured by local, regional and distant recurrence, mastectomy rate, and disease-specific and overall survival.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cosmetic Outcomes as evaluated using BREAST-Q questionnaire as a measure of patient-reported ratings.
Time Frame: 5 years
The BREAST-Q is a validated patient-reported outcome measure of breast related satisfaction and quality of life, including psychosocial, sexual well-being, and physical domains. Data for cosmetic outcomes will be summarized at the study's completion. This data will be compared to patients included in the IORT Registry that did not have a history of prior irradiation utilizing appropriate statistical tests and models.
5 years
Cosmetic Outcomes as evaluated using the Harvard Breast Cosmesis Grading Scale as a measure of patient-reported ratings.
Time Frame: 5 years
Data for cosmetic outcomes will be summarized at the study's completion. This data will be compared to patients included in the IORT Registry that did not have a history of prior irradiation utilizing appropriate statistical tests and models.
5 years
Cosmetic Outcomes as evaluated by clinician completion of the Harvard Breast Cosmesis Grading Scale
Time Frame: 5 years
Data for cosmetic outcomes will be summarized at the study's completion. This data will be compared to patients included in the IORT Registry that did not have a history of prior irradiation utilizing appropriate statistical tests and models.
5 years
Perioperative complications as documented using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5.0 (CTCAE.v5) scoring system.
Time Frame: 5 years
Data for perioperative complications will be summarized at the study's completion. This data will be compared to patients included in the IORT Registry that did not have a history of prior irradiation utilizing appropriate statistical tests and models.
5 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Effectiveness of partial mastectomy with IORT, measured by local recurrence.
Time Frame: 5 years
Tumor recurrence data will be considered a dichotomous outcome, not a time-to-event outcome.
5 years
Effectiveness of partial mastectomy with IORT, measured by regional recurrence.
Time Frame: 5 years
Tumor recurrence data will be considered a dichotomous outcome, not a time-to-event outcome.
5 years
Effectiveness of partial mastectomy with IORT, measured by distant recurrence.
Time Frame: 5 years
Tumor recurrence data will be considered a dichotomous outcome, not a time-to-event outcome.
5 years
Effectiveness of partial mastectomy with IORT, measured by mastectomy rate.
Time Frame: 5 years
Mastectomy rate will be measured by counting those who receive IORT and whose final pathology shows node positive or multifocal disease span >3cm post IORT, are advised to have mastectomy and have mastectomy.
5 years
Effectiveness of partial mastectomy with IORT, measured by disease-specific survival.
Time Frame: 5 years
Disease specific survival will be measured based on dates and causes of death.
5 years
Effectiveness of partial mastectomy with IORT, measured by overall survival
Time Frame: 5 years
Overall survival will be measured based on dates and causes of death.
