Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • 1\. Histologically or cytologically confirmed invasive breast cancers
  • 2\. ECOG performance status : 0 \- 3
  • 3\. Underwent curative intent surgery for the breast cancer with complete microscopic resection either in the form of a mastectomy or breast conservation surgery
  • 4\. Adequate axillary clearance or a validated sentinel node biopsy procedure. For the purpose of this study, adequacy of the axillary clearance will be determined by a multidisciplinary tumor board and rationale for the decision documented in the case records. As a general guideline, at least 10 axillary lymph nodes need to be sampled for an axillary nodal dissection to be considered as adequate.
  • 5\. Absence of distant metastases. Patients who have high risk breast cancer as defined by a Nottingham Prognostic Index (NPI) of \> 5\.4 will be considered for metastatic workup in the form of a 18 FDG PET CT. Alternatively, a CT scan of the thorax and whole abdomen, and a bone scan is also allowed. Metastatic workup will also be recommended in patients with AJCC 8 T3/T4 tumors at presentation, 4 or more nodes positive after surgery (pN2 or above). Patients with low or intermediate NPI will be considered for metastatic workup on a case by case basis. Metastatic workup will also be recommended for all patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced breast cancers.
  • 6\. Clear margins of resection for the breast primary as defined by absence tumor on ink in the specimen if a breast conservation has been performed or excision upto the deep fascia of the pectoralis major or skin.
  • 7\. Adjuvant radiotherapy is indicated. The following patients will be considered as candidates to receive adjuvant radiotherapy:
  • A. All patients after breast conservation surgery or after neoadjuvant chemotherapy
  • B. Patients after mastectomy if any of the below:
  • i. T3 \- T4 tumors

Exclusion Criteria

  • 1\. Patients with pure ductal carcinomas in situ (in patients undergoing upfront surgery).
  • 2\. Patients with non\-epithelial malignant conditions of the breast viz. Sarcomas, lymphomas, phyllodes tumors
  • 3\. Patients with metaplastic breast cancers
  • 4\. Presence of pathologically proven residual supraclavicular nodal metastases or residual internal mammary lymphadenopathy at time of radiotherapy.
  • 5\. Prior radiotherapy to the ipsilateral breast/chest wall or the mediastinum. Patients with synchronous / metachronous contralateral breast malignancies will be eligible for inclusion. Patients requiring bilateral breast radiotherapy are also eligible for inclusion.
  • Concurrent illness, including severe infection that may jeopardize the ability of the patient to undergo the procedures outlined in this protocol with reasonable safety
  • 7\. Serious medical or psychiatric conditions that might limit the ability of the patient to comply with the protocol.
  • 8\. Patients planned for concurrent chemotherapy during radiation therapy. Concurrent hormonal therapy or targeted therapy using anti\-HER2 agents is allowed.
