Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Experimental

Arm Label

Hypofractionation control arm

. Ultrahypofractionation experimental arm

Arm Description

Patients who will receive 40 Gy in 15 fractions to the entire breast or chest wall over three weeks and have had breast conservation surgery (BCS) or oncoplastic breast surgery(OBS) will receive an additional boost to the tumour site if and will receive sequential dose 12GY\4 fractions or SIB 8GY 15 fractions. The supraclavicular fossa will be treated in patients with node-positive disease or those who had received neoadjuvant chemotherapy . The IMLN will be irradiated in N2and N3 at first presentation.

Patients who will receive 26 Gy in 5 fractions to the entire breast and or chest wall for one week only. The volume of this arm will be the same as the volume of the control arm as regard axillary nodes, supraclavicular and IMLN. Patients who have had breast conservation or oncoplastic breast surgery(OBS) will be given a boost. If a boost is given, SIB of 6 Gy in 5 fractions will be used (or a sequential boost of 12GY\4 fractions).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Acute toxicity
Rate of acute grade 2 toxicity or higher from the treatment till 3 months (NCI_CTCAE). Each patient will be assesed weekly during radiotherapy and monthly for 3 months post radiotherapy.
Chronic toxicity
Rate of chronic toxicity grade 2 or higher ( NCI_CTCAE) from 6 months after radiotherapy up to 2 years. Each patient will be assessed before treatment and at 6,12 and 24 months from treatment.
Local recurrence
Rate of ipsilateral locoregional tumor recurrence proved by imaging and biopsy.
Patient compliance
Compliance to treatment (number of interrupted days of radiotherapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Overall survival
Overall survival (Number of the surviving patients for 2 years in each arm of the study)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Cancer is the second leading cause of death after cerebrovascular strokes and is a significant obstacle to each nation's future growth. Worldwide, Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the 5th leading cause of cancer related deaths that comes after lung cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer and gastric cancer. More than half of all breast cancer cases in the world occur in developing countries. Egypt has a high mortality rate from breast cancer, with a rate of 21.3 per 100,000 cases. Breast cancer is diagnosed at an advanced stage in 60 to 70% of cases in Egypt. The median age at diagnosis in Egypt is 48.5 years, which seems to be a decade younger than in Europe and North America.
