Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to evaluate the pathologic response at 12 months after single dose preoperative partial breast irradiation in early stage breast cancer patients. Furthermore, the aim is to collect data on response monitoring. Patient-reported outcome measures and treatment-induced toxicity will be evaluated.

Description:

In this multi-center single arm interventional cohort study 70 patients will be treated with single dose preoperative partial breast irradiation (PBI). Breast conserving surgery will be performed 12 months following PBI to assess pathologic response. Response monitoring following PBI includes MRI (3T and 7T), liquid biopsies and biopsy of the irradiated tumor. Results from this trial can change the current treatment of patients with early stage breast cancer. The single dose PBI can be of benefit for all patients who are suitable for postoperative PBI according to current guidelines. If pathologic complete response can be accurately predicted by (one of) the abovementioned response monitoring modalities, the need for surgery will become disputable. Moreover, in patients without expected pathologic complete response, the burden of radiotherapy can be minimized from 3-4.5 weeks of radiotherapy to a single dose of radiotherapy.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Dosimetry of radiotherapy in prone position	Patient can undergo an additional MRI in prone position for a radiotherapy planning study	1 month
Primary	Pathologic complete response (pCR)	pCR is assessed 6 or 12 months following single dose radiotherapy. Patients will undergo breast-conserving surgery.	up to 12 months
Secondary	Radiologic response on MRI	A 3T MRI will be made 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months following radiotherapy. This will be correlated to the pathologic response.	up to 12 months
Secondary	Biopsy of irradiated tumor	A biopsy of the irradiated tumor will be taken before surgery, this will be evaluated for presence of tumor cells. This will be correlated to the pathologic response.	up to 12 months
Secondary	Treatment-induced toxicity	Radiotherapy- and surgery-induced toxicity will be assessed up to 10 years following radiotherapy according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.03.	10 years
Secondary	Patient reported outcomes - quality of life	European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) Cancer-30 (C30), a cancer specific questionnaire on quality of life.; The C30 consists of the global quality of life (scale 0-100, higher scores indicate higher quality of life), 5 functional domains (physical, role, emotional, cognitive and social functioning, scale 0-100, higher scores indicate better functioning) and 9 symptom domains (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain, dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea and financial difficulties, scale 0-100, higher scores indicate more symptoms). No total score is calculated.	10 years
Secondary	Patient reported outcomes - quality of life	European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) Breast-23 (BR23), a breast cancer specific questionnaire on quality of life.; The BR23 consists of 4 functional domains (body image, sexual functioning, sexual enjoyment and future perspectives, scale 0-100, higher scores indicate better functioning) and 4 symptom domains (systemic therapy side effects, breast symptoms, arm symptoms and upset by hair loss, scale 0-100, higher scores indicate more symptoms) . No total score is calculated.	10 years
Secondary	Patient reported outcomes - anxiety and depression	Anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale): The scales ranges from 0 to 21 for both domains anxiety and depression separately. Higher scores indicate more complaints of anxiety or depression. No total score is calculated.	10 years
Secondary	Patient reported outcomes - fatigue	Fatigue (Multidimensional Fatigue Index). Five dimensions are present: General fatigue, physical fatigue, reduced activity, reduced motivation and mental fatigue. All dimensions range from 4-20, higher scores indicate more symptoms of fatigue on the specific dimension. No total score is calculated.	10 years
Secondary	Patient reported outcomes - work ability	Work ability (Work Ability Index). Seven dimensions are present: current work ability compared to best work ability (scale 0-10), work ability compared to demands of work (scale 2-10), current number of disease (scale 1-7),loss of work ability due to disease (scale 1-6), absenteeism past 12 months (scale 1-5), prognosis work ability in 2 years (scale 1-7), vitality (scale 1-4). A total score of work ability is calculated as the sum of all dimension (scale 7-49). In all dimension higher scores indicate better work ability.	10 years

These questions are about difference between the treated and untreated breast in terms of size, shape, skin color, firmness and overall cosmesis (scale: no difference, small difference, moderate difference, large difference), visibility of the surgical scar (scale: not distracting, little distracting, quite distracting, very distracting) and satisfaction with the appearance of the treated breast (scale: very satisfied, satisfied, not unsatisfied, unsatisfied, very unsatisfied).
