Abstract

Abstract Purpose: Outcomes following adjuvant accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) in select women with early-stage breast cancer are comparable to whole breast irradiation. Robotic stereotactic accelerated partial breast irradiation (RSAPBI) with fiducial tracking is an attractive treatment option, but limited outcomes data are available for this approach. We report 2-year outcomes for a prospective multi-institutional trial treating select women with RSAPBI. Materials and Methods: Post-menopausal women with DCIS and Stage IA breast cancer were treated over a five-year period extending from November 2015 to November 2020 and were followed for a minimum of 18 months. Treatments were delivered with a robotic radiosurgery system. Four gold fiducials were implanted around the lumpectomy cavity prior to the start of treatment for tumor bed delineation and target tracking. The CTV was defined as the lumpectomy cavity with a uniform 5-15 mm expansion confined to the breast tissue and the PTV was defined as the CTV with a 0-5 mm uniform expansion. The PTV was prescribed 30 Gy in 5 fractions. Disease status assessments were completed at 4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months and yearly intervals thereafter for five years. Results: Eighty-one patients (median age 68 years) with hormone receptor-positive tumors were treated over a median 9 days (range, 5-15). Sixty-eight women had invasive ductal carcinoma (84%) and thirteen had DCIS (16%). The median treated PTV was 108 cm3 (IQR 66-156) and the median prescription isodose line was 81% (IQR 79-83). The median CTV expansion was 10 mm (range 5-10) and the median PTV expansion was 3 mm (range 0-5). At a median follow up of 2 years there was one new ipsilateral breast tumor diagnosed. There were no local, regional, or distant treatment failures. Conclusions: Two-year results suggest that RSAPBI with fiducial tracking is an effective technique for the adjuvant treatment of post-menopausal women with hormone receptor-positive early-stage breast cancer. Additional follow-up is planned to confirm this preliminary finding. Citation Format: Jonathan M.
