Read the transcript

This trial is for women aged 50 or older with newly diagnosed invasive breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ, after breast-conserving surgery. Those needing regional lymph-node radiation cannot join.

The idea: five radiation sessions treat the whole breast and give extra radiation to the surgical cavity at the same time. Sessions occur every other day, excluding weekends. Researchers assess breast and chest-wall side effects, quality of life, and cancer control.

This phase 2 study plans 90 patients. Ethan Steele leads at UNC in Chapel Hill, the sole recruiting US site.
