Abstract 3736
Background
For decades, conventionally fractionated whole breast irradiation (CF-WBI) was used after breast conserving surgery (BCS). Pivotal phase 3 trials on hypofractionated-WBI (HF-WBI) showed its non-inferiority as compared to CF-WBI. However, younger patients (<60 years) are not currently worldwide treated with HF-WBI. The aim of this multi-center comparative study is to confirm the safety of HF-WBI in a real-life series of younger patients.
Methods
Between 2010 and 2016, a total of 786 patients aged less than 60 years old with early stage breast cancer were treated with postoperative WBI after BCS in three breast cancer centers: 340 underwent HF-WBI while 446 were treated with CF-WBI. Acute toxicity was evaluated at the end of WBI. Late toxicity was evaluated at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months.
Results
At univariate logistic analysis, hypofractionation showed a significant protective effect in terms of acute edema (p = 0.0001), acute wet desquamation (p = 0.009), chronic edema (p = 0.0001), chronic erythema/pigmentation (p = 0.0001), and breast fibrosis (p = 0.0002). At multivariate logistic analysis, hypofractionation was independent significant factor for acute edema (OR 0.09, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.48; p = 0.005), acute wet desquamation (OR 0.07, 95% CI 0.009 to 0.59; p = 0.014), and chronic edema (OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.75; p = 0.018). Significant association between individual characteristics and toxicity (grade 2 or more) are summarized in Table.Table:

Conclusions
HF-WBI showed significantly improved toxicity outcomes in terms of both acute skin edema and wet desquamation, and chronic skin edema. HF-WBI after BCS should replace CF-WBI independently of age.
