Quality-of-life results for accelerated partial breast irradiation with interstitial brachytherapy versus whole-breast irradiation in early breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery (GEC-ESTRO): 5-year results of a randomised, phase 3 trial. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND \ud Previous results from the GEC-ESTRO trial showed that accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using multicatheter brachytherapy in the treatment of early breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery was non-inferior to whole-breast

Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation

Oncology Times, 2017
Traditionally, the treatment for early-stage breast cancer has included lumpectomy followed by whole breast radiotherapy over 5–6 weeks. Due to the inconvenience and cost of this schedule along with concern that targeting the whole breast may be overtreatment from some patients, accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) has been explored as an ...

Reduced Mortality With Partial-Breast Irradiation for Early Breast Cancer: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Trials [PDF]

, 2016
PURPOSE: With earlier detection and more effective treatment, mortality from breast cancer continues to fall and it has become increasingly important to reduce the toxicity of treatments.

Partial Breast Irradiation or Whole Breast Radiotherapy for Early Breast Cancer : A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

, 2010
The purpose of the study was to compare treatment outcomes in patients with breast cancer treated with partial breast irradiation (PBI) and of those treated with whole breast-radiation therapy (WBRT). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of

Partial breast irradiation after sentinel lymph node biopsy omission: Is it a valid alternative to whole breast Irradiation? Analysis of the dose to the sentinel lymph node region during whole breast irradiation vs. partial breast irradiation

Breast
Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) can be safely omitted in selected early-stage, clinically node-negative breast cancer (BC) patients. While these patients are also candidates for partial breast irradiation (PBI), the dosimetric effects of ...

Intraoperative Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer: The Lasting Effects of a Fleeting Treatment

International Journal of Breast Cancer, 2014
In well-selected patients who choose to pursue breast conservation therapy (BCT) for early-stage breast cancer, partial breast irradiation (PBI) delivered externally or intraoperatively, may be a viable alternative to conventional whole breast ...
