Second cancer risk after breast conserving therapy is becoming more important due to improved long term survival rates. In this study, we estimate the risks for developing a solid second cancer after radiotherapy of breast cancer using the concept of organ equivalent dose (OED).
Computer-tomography scans of 10 representative breast cancer patients were selected for this study. Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT), tangential intensity modulated radiotherapy (t-IMRT), multibeam intensity modulated radiotherapy (m-IMRT), and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) were planned to deliver a total dose of 50 Gy in 2 Gy fractions. Differential dose volume histograms (dDVHs) were created and the OEDs calculated. Second cancer risks of ipsilateral, contralateral lung and contralateral breast cancer were estimated using linear, linear-exponential and plateau models for second cancer risk.
Compared to 3D-CRT, cumulative excess absolute risks (EAR) for t-IMRT, m-IMRT and VMAT were increased by 2 ± 15%, 131 ± 85%, 123 ± 66% for the linear-exponential risk model, 9 ± 22%, 82 ± 96%, 71 ± 82% for the linear and 3 ± 14%, 123 ± 78%, 113 ± 61% for the plateau model, respectively.
Second cancer risk after 3D-CRT or t-IMRT is lower than for m-IMRT or VMAT by about 34% for the linear model and 50% for the linear-exponential and plateau models, respectively.
由于长期生存率的提高,保乳治疗后的二次癌症风险变得愈发重要。在本研究中,我们使用器官等效剂量(OED)的概念来估计乳腺癌放疗后发生实体二次癌症的风险。
本研究选取了10例有代表性的乳腺癌患者的计算机断层扫描图像。计划采用三维适形放疗(3D-CRT)、切线野调强放疗(t-IMRT)、多野调强放疗(m-IMRT)和容积调强弧形放疗(VMAT),以2Gy的分次剂量给予总剂量50Gy。创建了剂量差异体积直方图(dDVH)并计算了OED。使用二次癌症风险的线性、线性-指数和平台模型估计同侧、对侧肺部和对侧乳腺癌的二次癌症风险。
与3D-CRT相比,对于线性-指数风险模型,t-IMRT、m-IMRT和VMAT的累积超额绝对风险(EAR)分别增加了2±15%、131±85%、123±66%;对于线性模型,分别增加了9±22%、82±96%、71±82%;对于平台模型,分别增加了3±14%、123±78%、113±61%。
对于线性模型,3D-CRT或t-IMRT后的二次癌症风险比m-IMRT或VMAT低约34%;对于线性-指数和平台模型,分别低50%。
