Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer (NCT03585621)
A Phase I-II Study of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer (SBRT Breast)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This is a prospective, single institution, phase I-II study of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for unresected breast cancer. Twenty-four patients with advanced breast cancer who are not candidates for surgery (metastatic disease, unresectable, medically inoperable) or decline surgery will be enrolled in a prospective study using SBRT (4 fractions of radiation therapy over 12-15 days) as the primary treatment modality.
Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (5 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (1 items).
Location: Sunnybrook Odette Cancer Centre — Toronto, Ontario
Age range: 18 Years

Usually NOT eligible if any of the following apply:
- Exclusion Criteria: Received chemotherapy within 3 weeks prior to breast SBRT. (Concurrent endocrine therapy is permitted) Multifocal or multicentric tumours. Ipsilateral supraclavicular or infraclavicular nodal disease \>= 1cm size that is at the level of or superior to the brachial plexus Unable to meet the brachial plexus dose constraints despite compromising coverage of target volumes - as per the discretion of the treating physician Treatment target volume estimated to occupy \> 50% of the ipsilateral whole breast volume. Locally recurrent breast cancer, with previous radiotherapy to the breast, or previous lumpectomy or mastectomy. Ipsilateral breast implant. Serious non-malignant disease that precludes definitive surgical or radiation treatment (e.g. scleroderma, systemic lupus erythematosus, cardiovascular/pulmonary/renal disease).
