简要总结

This clinical research aims to determine if concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy is more effective than sequential chemotherapy and radiation therapy for patients with stage IIB-III breast cancer. It seeks to answer the following key questions:

  1. When compared to sequential treatment, does concurrent chemoradiotherapy increase disease-free survival?
  2. What effects does concurrent treatment have on post-operative look, quality of life, and side effects including arm swelling (lymphoedema)?
  3. What are each treatment approach's financial costs?

Researchers will compare the following to groups:

Arm A: Participants in the sequential treatment group will first undergo chemotherapy and then radiation.

and Arm B: Participants in the concurrent treatment group will undergo radiation therapy while undergoing chemotherapy.

Participants are going to:

  1. Get the usual chemotherapy (taxanes and/or anthracyclines).
  2. Receive radiation therapy for three to four weeks.
  3. Have follow-up visits every 6months for 5years to check for cancer recurrence, side effects, and quality of life.

结局指标

主要结局

Study the 3-year Disease Free Survival.

时间窗: From enrollment to 3 years after treatment at six months intervals.

次要结局

  • Impact of concurrent regimen on patient's Quality of life using the EORTC QLQ 30 and BR 23 and EQ5D5L questionnaire.(From enrollment at pre-raditherapy, post-radiotherapy completion and on follow up at 12-monthly interval up to 3 years.)
  • Subjective and objective assessment of cosmesis in breast-conserving surgery patients, utilizing the Harvard scale and the BCCT core photographic evaluation, respectively.(From enrollment at pre-raditherapy, post-radiotherapy completion and on follow up at 12-monthly interval up to 3 years.)
  • The difference in direct and indirect cost of treatment in the two arms will be assessed using the FACT-COST.(From enrollment at start of adjuvant chemotherapy, pre-radiotherapy and at post radiotherapy treatment.)
  • To assess the rate of lymphedema in the two arms of the trial using subjective and objective methods(From enrollment at pre-radiotherapy, post-radiotherapy completion and annually thereafter till 3 years)
  • Overall survival (OS)outcome assessment in the two arms.(From enrollment to 5 years after treatment at 6 months intervals)
  • Breast Cancer Specific Survival (BCSS) will be assessed with regular follow-ups.(From enrollment to 5 years after treatment at 6 months intervals)
