Trial summary

Adjuvant radiotherapy after breast conserving surgery has been shown to improve both local control and overall survival. Dose escalation of the tumor bed by addition of a boost after whole breast radiotherapy reduces the risk of local recurrence in invasive breast cancer. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Simultaneous Integrated Boost (SIB) Technique in the Adjuvant Radiotherapy of Breast Cancer Patients.

Adjuvant radiotherapy after breast conserving surgery has been shown to improve both local control and overall survival. Dose escalation of the tumor bed by addition of a boost after whole breast radiotherapy reduces the risk of local recurrence in invasive breast cancer.

Simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) techniques have been shown to provide more conformal treatment plans than conventional sequential boost, in addition, SIB enables a reduction in the overall treatment time by 1 week compared to conventional boost techniques.

The proposed study is aimed at evaluating radiation-induced toxicity in patients treated with breast-conserving surgery in combination with radiotherapy using SIB technique.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Acute Radiation induced toxicity (grade 2 or higher)

    Toxicity score using Common Terminology for Adverse Events (CTCAE)

    Measured: Measurement at the last 1 day of radiotherapy

  2. Acute Radiation induced toxicity (grade 2 or higher)

    Toxicity score using Common Terminology for Adverse Events (CTCAE)

    Measured: Measurement 3 months after completion of radiotherapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Simultaneous integrated boost in people with Breast Cancer and Radiotherapy Side Effect, run by Medical University of Graz at 1 site in Austria.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Austria. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Acute Radiation induced toxicity (grade 2 or higher) (time frame: Measurement at the last 1 day of radiotherapy). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04535895, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Oct 2022.
