Abstract

Abstract Purpose/Objectives The purpose of this study was to determine early and late toxicities among patients with non-metastatic breast cancer (BC) receiving concurrent bevacizumab (BV) and radiation therapy (RT). Materials/Methods Multicentre, prospective study, of the toxicity of adjuvant concomitant association of BV and RT in patients with non-metastatic BC enrolled in Phase 3 BEATRICE, BEVERLY and BETH trial. Early and late toxicities were assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v. 3.0 during RT, 12 months and 36 months after its completion. Results Sixty-four patients were included from october 2007 to august 2010. They all received adjuvant RT and BV concomitant treatment, plus neo-adjuvant BV for 24 patients. RT was adjuvant and normo-fractionated. Twelve months toxicity was available for 60 patients and 36 months toxicity was available for 43 patients. Median follow-up was 46 months (18-77). Median age was 51 years old (23-68). Among 63 evaluated patients during RT, acute radiation dermatitis was observed in 48 (76%) patients : Grade 1 for 27 (43%), grade 2 for 17 (27%), grade 3 for 4 patients (6%). Grade 2 acute oesophagitis was observed in 1 patient. At 3 years, few toxicities were observed : 6 patients (14%) had grade 1 pain, 4 (9%) had grade 1 fibrosis, one (2%) had grade 1 telangiectasis, one (2%) had grade 1 paresis, 3 (7%) had grade 1 lymphoedema and one grade 3 lymphoedema. No grade 4 toxicity was observed. At 12 months, only one evaluated patient had a LVEF <50% and none at 36 months. Conclusions Concurrent bevacizumab with locoregional RT is associated with acceptable early and late 3-years toxicities in patients with BC. Determination of late toxicity at 60 months is currently underway.
