Abstract 51P
Background
Four-year outcomes of hypofractionated postmastectomy radiation therapy of 39 Gy in 13. Fractionations to investigate early and four year late side effects of hypofractionated postmastectomy radiation therapy (HFRT-PM) of 39 Gy in 13 fractions over 3 weeks.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed characteristics and outcomes of patients with stage II to III breast cancer treated with HFRT-PM between February 2019 and February 2023 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The selected patients did not have any previously diagnosed heart or lung disease. Treatment provided in 13 fractions of 3 Gy per fraction. The treatment techniques were applied by using 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy and IMRT of the chest wall with regional nodal volume if required. The end point was freedom from any grade 3 or higher toxicities.
Results
We identified 730 patients with a median follow-up of 4 year. About two-third of the patient (66.6%) had the disease located in the left side. Regional nodal irradiation was done in 84.1% of patients. In multivariate analysis, regional lymph node involvement (≥4 nodes) was associated with worse locoregional control (hazard ratio, 1.68; 95% confidence interval, 1.06-2.67; P = .03) and overall survival (hazard ratio, 2.16; 95% confidence interval, 1.59-2.95; P < .001). The toxicities were acceptable. After a four-year follow -up, there are no grade 3 or 4 toxicities. The incidence of early skin reactions (13% grade 2) cardiac disorders (1.5%), and symptomatic lung fibrosis (1.7%) was low during follow-up. The cumulative rate of arm lymphedema was 2.1% and considered severe in 40 patients (0.05%).
Conclusions
The early results of this study show that HFRT-PM of 39 Gy in 13 fractions over 3 weeks seems safe, but long-term results need to be observed and highlighting the need for long-term follow-up and for randomized trials for hypofractionated radiation therapy postmastectomy especially for young patients.
