5. RT target and fractionation schedule in usual clinical practice –Target: whole breast –Dose fractionation: total 45-50Gy with daily 1.8-2Gy ± tumor bed boost 최근 방사선치료의 큰 흐름은 hypofractionation 인데, breast cancer 에서도 hypofractionation 이 가능할까 ? 대부분의 cancer 는 primary tumor 또는 surgical bed 에 margin 을 추가해서 치료하는데, breast cancer 는 꼭 whole breast 를 치료해야 하나 ?

7. Introduction Most widely used fractionation regimen in breast cancer RT –Total 45-50Gy with 1.8-2Gy daily fraction ± surgical bed boost New fractionation regimen interested in recent years –Hypofractionation for whole breast irradiation(WBI) –Accelerated partial breast irradiation(APBI)

8. Hypofractionation for Whole Breast Irradiation

9. Trials of Hypofractionation Versus Conventional WBI 3 randomized trials that have compared hypofractionation with conventional fractionation for WBI(whole breast irradiation) ⇒ Ontario Clinical Oncology Group(OCOG) trial. J Natl Cancer Inst 2002;94:1143-1150 OCOG trial. N Engl J Med 2010;362:513-520 ⇒ UK standardization of breast radiotherapy(START) trial A. Lancet Oncol 2008;9:331-341 ⇒ START trial B. Lancet 2008;371:1098-1107

15. Rates of pneumonitis, symptomatic lung fibrosis, rib fracture, ischemic heart disease –Very low in all trials –No differences between arms in all trials Trials of Hypofractionation Versus Conventional WBI

16. Use of Hypofractionation in Clinical Practice Subgroup analyses from OCOG trial –Reported that hypofractionation was less effective for patients with high-grade tumors Haviland et al. N Engl J Med 2010;362:1843 –Meta-analysis performed in response to upper results –Could not find any detrimental effect of hypofractionation for high-grade disease In summary… –It seems reasonable to treat high-grade tumors with hypofractionation

17. Major consideration in hypofractionation –The treatment of the regional nodes Galecki et al. Acta Oncol 2006;45:280-284 Johansson et al. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2000;48:745-750 Olsen et al. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 1993;26:43-49 –Reported risk of brachial plexopathy in hypofractionated RT Use of Hypofractionation in Clinical Practice

18. START A trial –Only 1 case of brachial plexopathy in 41.6Gy group START B trial –No brachial plexopathy In summary… –Maybe relatively safe, but need to wait for more data and longer follow-up before using hypofractionation for regional LNs RT Use of Hypofractionation in Clinical Practice

19. In conclusion, the results of these studies have confirmed that hypofractionation for WBI(whole breast irradiation) is safe and effective Reasonable regimens for hypofractionation –Total 42.5Gy with daily 2.66Gy over 3 weeks –Total 41.6Gy with daily 3.2Gy over 5 weeks –Total 40Gy with daily 2.67Gy over 3 weeks Use of Hypofractionation in Clinical Practice

21. Partial-Breast Irradiation

22. Biological Rationale Vicini et al. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2004;60:722-730 Ohtake et al. Cancer 1995;76:32-45 Imamura et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat 1985;62:177-184 –Provided evidences that the extension of tumor for most patients is limited to within 1cm from the primary lesion

23. Fisher et al. N Engl J Med 2002;347:1233-1241 Veronesi et al. Ann Oncol 2001;12:997-1003 Liljegren et al. J Clin Oncol 1999;17:2326-2333 –Lumpectomy + WBI vs lumpectomy only –Reported anatomic location of in-breast failures –“Elsewhere failure” occurred less than 4%, with equal frequency in both group Biological Rationale Lumpectomy cavity 로부터 1cm 이상 벗어난 부위에서 발 생한 recurrence

24. Hypofractionated Partial-Breast Irradiation Techniques/Data 4 principal methods to deliver APBI (accelerated partial breast irradiation) –Multicatheter interstitial brachytherapy (MIB) –Balloon-based brachytherapy (MammoSite) –External beam RT (EBRT) –Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT)

25. 1. MIB Technique

26. There are no large phase Ⅲ randomized trials with long-term follow-up

27. 2. Balloon-Based Brachytherapy (MammoSite)

28. There are no large phase Ⅲ randomized trials with long-term follow-up

29. 3. External Beam RT (EBRT) Recently, most commonly used technique Target definition –CTV: tumor bed + 1~1.5cm –PTV: CTV + 0.5~1cm Dose prescription –Total dose 38.5Gy with 3.85Gy/fraction twice daily

31. There are no large phase Ⅲ randomized trials with long-term follow-up

32. 4. Intraoperative Radiotherapy (IORT) Single fraction dose(20Gy) delivered to the lumpectomy site at the time of surgery To protect the thoracic wall, an aluminum-lead disk is placed between breast tissue and pectoralis muscle Not commonly used in these days –Unknown long-term side effects of single high dose radiation –Limited availability

37. Conclusions

38. Two important contributions in breast cancer radiotherapy in recent years –Whole breast hypofractionated radiotherapy –Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) Whole breast hypofractionated radiotherapy –All randomized trials shown similar outcomes compared with conventional fractionation Accelerate partial breast irradiation (APBI) –Multiple single- and multi-institutional data have been published good results –Long-term results of large phase Ⅲ trials are still pending
