Prospective Study of Particle Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer With Different Arm Position
- Conditions
- Breast Cancer
- Interventions
- Device: Fixed positions of arm down and arm up
- Registration Number
- NCT05878678
- Lead Sponsor
- Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center
- Brief Summary
The optical body surface image (C-RAD) was used to guide and track the change of positions, and multimodal images (including 2D X-ray images, CT images and PET-CT images) were used to verify the treatment positions. In order to explore the accuracy of breast cancer patients' treatment positions and its impact on dose of the new fixation device in two different fixed positions of arm up and arm down, optimize the position fixed equipment and methods of particle radiotherapy for breast cancer, and then establish the precision process of particle radiotherapy for breast cancer under the guidance of multimodal images. In a word, this is a dosimetry and prospective Phase II randomized clinical study of the accuracy of multi-modal guided particle radiotherapy for postoperative breast cancer with different arm position.

Group Intervention Description Fixed positions of arm down Fixed positions of arm down and arm up Patients will receive particle radiotherapy in arm down position. Radiation: adjuvant hypofractionated intensity-modulated proton radiotherapy; For patients received modified radical mastectomy, CTV1: chest wall ± regional lymph drainage area, 40.05Gy (RBE) in 15 fractions with proton radiotherapy; For patients received lumpectomy, CTV1: whole breast ± regional lymph drainage area, 40.05 Gy (RBE) in 15 fractions with proton radiotherapy; CTVtb: tumor bed SIB to 48 Gy (RBE) in 15 fractions with proton radiotherapy. Fixed positions of arm up Fixed positions of arm down and arm up Patients will receive particle radiotherapy in arm up position. Radiation: adjuvant hypofractionated intensity-modulated proton radiotherapy; For patients received modified radical mastectomy, Clinical Target Volume (CTV) 1: chest wall ± regional lymph drainage area, 40.05Gy (RBE) in 15 fractions with proton radiotherapy; For patients received lumpectomy, CTV1: whole breast ± regional lymph drainage area, 40.05 Gy (RBE) in 15 fractions with proton radiotherapy; CTVtb: tumor bed SIB（simultaneous integrated boost） to 48 Gy (RBE) in 15 fractions with proton radiotherapy.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The accuracy of multi-modal guided particle radiotherapy for postoperative breast cancer with different immobilization position within 3 months after radiotherapy The optical body surface image (C-RAD) was used to guide and track the change of positions, and multimodal images (including 2D X-ray images, CT images and PET-CT images) were used to verify the treatment positions. In order to explore the accuracy of breast cancer patients' treatment positions and its impact on dose of the new fixation device in two different fixed positions of arm up and arm down, optimize the position fixed equipment and methods of particle radiotherapy for breast cancer, and then establish the precision process of particle radiotherapy for breast cancer under the guidance of multimodal images.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Acute toxicities within 3 months after radiotherapy Acute toxicities assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03
Overall survival rate at 5 years post radiotherapy Tumor local control rate at 5 years post radiotherapy Progression free survival rate at 5 years post radiotherapy Late toxicities > 3 months after radiotherapy Late toxicities assessed by Toxicity criteria of the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) and the European organization for research and treatment of cancer (EORTC)
