Summary

Radiation therapy after surgery to remove breast cancer improves control of the breast cancer. Standard therapy after breast conservation surgery is five to six weeks of radiation to the entire breast.

This clinical trial will evaluate the effectiveness of conformal radiation therapy delivered only to the area in the breast where the lumpectomy will be performed.

This study will determine if radiation therapy delivered in this manner will prevent the cancer from coming back and eliminate the need for five to six weeks of radiation. Eligible participants will be randomized to one of two arms; Arm 1 which is comprised of one neoadjuvant radiation treatment, or Arm 2 which is comprised of three neoadjuvant radiation treatments.

The study will also gather information about the safety and effects (good and bad) this radiation has, the immune priming effects of this radiation, and on patient satisfaction with the appearance of the breast.
