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.

Conditions

Interventions

RADIATION

Daily Radiation Therapy

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.

RADIATION

Weekly Radiation Therapy

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.
