简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to document lymphedema rates in patients requiring regional nodal irradiation (RNI) who receive hypofractionated radiation as compared to conventional radiation.
详细描述
Participants with stage II or stage III node-positive breast cancer, or T3N0 node-negative will receive hypofractionated radiation for 4 weeks. We hypothesize that patients receiving a shorter course of radiation will have reduced lymphedema. Lymphedema is diagnosed when the patient's arm circumference measures 10% or more as compared to pre-treatment (baseline) arm circumference measurement. Secondary endpoints will address the effectiveness, quality of life, and side effect profile of a shortened course of treatment.
