ABSTRACT
Background and purpose:
Preoperative partial breast irradiation (PBI) has got the advantage of treating a well-defined target. We report the results of the phase II ROCK trial (NCT03520894), enrolling early breast cancer (BC) patients treated with preoperative robotic radiosurgery (prRS), in terms of acute and early late toxicity, disease control, and cosmesis. Material andmethods:
The study recruited between 2018 and 2021 at our Radiation Oncology Unit. Eligible patients were 50 + years old BC, hormonal receptors positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HR+/HER2-), sized up to 25 mm. The study aimed to prospectively assess the toxicity and feasibility of a robotic single 21 Gy-fraction prRS in preoperative setting.Results:
A total of 70 patients were recruited and 22 patients were successfully treated with pRS. Overall, three G1 adverse events (13.6 %) were recorded within 7 days from prRS. Three events (13.6 %) were recorded between 7 and 30 days, one G2 breast oedema and two G1 breast pain. No acute toxicity greater than G2 was recorded. Five patients experienced early late G1 toxicity. One patient reported G2 breast induration. No early late toxicity greater than G2 was observed. At a median follow up of 18 months (range 6-29.8), cosmetic results were scored excellent/good and fair in 14 and 5 patients, respectively, while 3 patients experienced a poor cosmetic outcome.Conclusions:
ROCK trial showed that a single 21 Gy dose prRS represents a feasible technique for selected patients affected by early BC, showing an acceptable preliminary toxicity profile.
