Randomized Clinical Trial: Comparison Between Quadrantectomy Followed by External Fractionated Radiotherapy and Quadrantectomy Associated With Intraoperative Radiotherapy in Women >= 48 Years of Age Affected by Early-stage Breast Carcinoma.
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating external fractionated radiotherapy and intraoperative radiotherapy for Carcinoma Breast. Completed, enrolled 1,305 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of exclusive intraoperative radiation therapy after conserving surgery in early-stage breast cancer compared with whole breast radiotherapy. The primary outcome was the rate of ipsilateral true recurrence ( any recurrence at or close to primary tumor bed) and new ipsilateral tumors ( any recurrence occurring in quadrants other than the previous one) and the recurrence free survival.
