To evaluate the feasibility of hypofractionation with SIB in all settings in Germany to prepare a multicenter treatment comparison.
Eligible patients had histopathologically confirmed breast cancer operated by BCS. Patients received WBI 40.0 Gy in 16 fractions of 2.5 Gy. A SIB with 0.5 Gy per fraction was administered to the tumor bed, thereby giving 48.0 Gy in 16 fractions to the boost-PTV sparing heart, LAD, lung, contralateral breast. The primary study objective was feasibility, administration of specified dose in 16 fractions within 22-29 days with adherence to certain dose constraints (heart; LAD; contralateral breast); secondary endpoints were toxicity, QoL.
151 patients were recruited from 7 institutions between 07/11-10/12. 10 patients met exclusion criteria prior to irradiation. All but two patients (99%) received the prescribed dose in the PTVs. Adherence to dose constraints and time limits was achieved in 89% (95% CI 82% to 93%). 11 AE were reported in 10 patients; five related to concurrent endocrine therapy. Two of the AEs were related to radiotherapy: grade 3 hot flushes in two cases. QoL remained unchanged.
Hypofractionation with a SIB is feasible and was well tolerated in this study.
评估德国所有情况下采用 SIB 进行分割放疗的可行性,为多中心治疗比较做准备。
符合条件的患者为接受保乳术(BCS)治疗的组织学确诊乳腺癌患者。患者接受 WBI 40.0 Gy,16 次分割,每次 2.5 Gy。瘤床给予 SIB,每次 0.5 Gy,16 次分割,共 48.0 Gy,可保护心脏、LAD、肺、对侧乳房的 boost-PTV。主要研究目标是可行性,即能否在 22-29 天内,16 次分割,遵守特定剂量限制(心脏;LAD;对侧乳房),指定剂量;次要终点是毒性、QoL。
2011 年 7 月至 2012 年 10 月,7 家机构共招募 151 例患者。10 例患者在放疗前符合排除标准。除 2 例患者外,所有患者(99%)均在 PTV 内接受了规定剂量。89%(95%CI 82%至 93%)的患者达到了剂量限制和时间限制。10 例患者中报告了 11 例不良反应(AE),其中 5 例与同期内分泌治疗有关。有 2 例 AE 与放疗相关:2 例患者出现 3 级热潮红。QoL 保持不变。
本研究中,SIB 分割放疗是可行的,且耐受性良好。
