Brief Summary:
This study is to compare radiation toxicity of accelerated partial breast irradiation (ABPI) with whole breast irradiation (WBI) in low-risk breast cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Breast Neoplasms Neoplasm Recurrence, Local Radiation: APBI Radiation: WBI Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
This study is a single-center phase II randomized clinical trial to enroll low-risk breast cancer treat with breast-conserving surgery. All eligible patients are randomized to receive either ABPI (40Gy/10fx/2wks) or WBI(43.5Gy/15fx/3wks). Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) technique is used. Grade 2 or more acute and late toxicities are prospectively evaluated and compared.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: APBI
Patients receive accelerated partial breast irradiation to tumour bed to a total dose of 40Gy, 4.0Gy per fraction, 5 fractions a week, within 2 weeks.
Radiation: APBI
Patients receive radiation to the breast tumor bed to a total dose of 40Gy/10fx/2wks, using intensity-modulated radiation therapy technique.

Active Comparator: WBI
Patients receive whole breast irradiation to a total dose of 43.5Gy, at 2.9Gy per fraction, 5 fractions a week, within 3 weeks.
Radiation: WBI
Patients receive radiation to the whole breast to a total dose of 43.5Gy/15fx/3wks, using intensity-modulated radiation therapy technique.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number o participants with Grade 2 or more toxicity [ Time Frame: 5 years ]

    The evaluated toxicities include the following and are evaluated by CTCAE 3.0 criteria:

    ipsilateral breast and axillary nodal recurrence

  2. overall survival [ Time Frame: 5 years ]

  3. disease-free survival [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    any recurrence or death

  4. distant-metastasis survival [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    distant metastasis

  5. Quality of life measured with BR-23 questionnaire [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    BR-23 questionnaire
