Abstract
Purpose
To report long-term institutional outcomes for ductal carcinoma in situ treated with accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using multiple modalities as a part of breast-conserving therapy.
Methods and Materials
From January 2001 to April 2019, 240 patients with stage 0 breast cancer were treated with breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and adjuvant APBI at our institution. Based on the 2024 American Society for Radiology and Oncology (ASTRO) APBI guidelines, 170 patients were “recommended,” 68 were “conditionally recommended,” and 2 were “not recommended” for APBI. A total of 102 patients were treated with linear accelerator-based external beam radiation therapy, 38 with magnetic resonance image-guided external beam radiation therapy (MRgEBRT), 49 with multicatheter interstitial implant (ISI) brachytherapy, and 51 with intracavitary applicator brachytherapy (strut-adjusted volume implant). Patients treated with external beam radiation therapy received 3850 cGy in 10 fractions twice a day. Patients treated with ISI or strut-adjusted volume implant received 3400 cGy in 10 fractions twice a day. Recurrence and survival were calculated using the Kaplan–Meier method. Cosmesis was scored by the Harvard criteria.
Results
At a median follow-up of 11.5 years (range, 1.2-17.8 years), the overall and cause-specific survival rates were 94.8% and 100%, respectively. The 10-year ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence rate was 3.8%. There were 9 observed ipsilateral breast tumor recurrences with 1 concurrent ipsilateral regional lymph node recurrence. No other breast failures, regional recurrences, or distant metastases were noted. Breast cancer–specific survival (BCSS) was 99.6% at the time of analysis. There was no statistically significant difference in overall survival or recurrence rates between the different treatment modalities. Cosmesis was excellent or good in 90% of cases without a statistically significant difference between the treatment method, 2024 American Society for Radiology and Oncology APBI criteria, or the 2022 American Brachytherapy Society (ABS) APBI acceptability categories.
Conclusions
APBI as a component of breast-conserving therapy for pure ductal carcinoma in situ is associated with excellent survival rates, local control, and cosmetic outcomes regardless of radiation therapy modality.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Advances is to provide information for clinicians who use radiation therapy by publishing: Clinical trial reports and reanalyses. Basic science original reports. Manuscripts examining health services research, comparative and cost effectiveness research, and systematic reviews. Case reports documenting unusual problems and solutions. High quality multi and single institutional series, as well as other novel retrospective hypothesis generating series. Timely critical reviews on important topics in radiation oncology, such as side effects. Articles reporting the natural history of disease and patterns of failure, particularly as they relate to treatment volume delineation. Articles on safety and quality in radiation therapy. Essays on clinical experience. Articles on practice transformation in radiation oncology, in particular: Aspects of health policy that may impact the future practice of radiation oncology. How information technology, such as data analytics and systems innovations, will change radiation oncology practice. Articles on imaging as they relate to radiation therapy treatment.
