7 Conclusions from early APBI series Majority of patients treated in early APBI studies were not acceptable candidates even for conventional breast-conserving treatment! High LR rates reflect inadequate patient selection, suboptimal QA and treatmenttechnique!

12 Aim: To give recommendations on patient selection criteria for the use of APBI outside the context of prospective clinical trials based on available clinical evidence obtained from prospective APBI studies with a minimum median follow-up of 4 years. Methods & Materials: Systematic literature search using the keywords partial-breast irradiation and APBI + handsearching of relevant conference abstracts and book chapters(published by the end of July 2009) 340 articles were identified 191 original articles(excl. reviews, letters, case reports, editorials) 75 articles remained(excl. dosimetric/technical articles) 3 randomizedand 19 prospectivenon-randomizedstudieswitha FUP 4 yearswereidentified.

28 Tumour size In most series tumour size did not affect local control significantly following BCS + RT. Holland data*: microscopic spread beyond primary tumour is similar in T1 and T2 tumours. However, at large volume (>160 cm 3 ) implants the larger implant volume (V100) and high-dose regions (V150 and V200) were correlated with a higher incidence of fat necrosis. Therefore, large tumours (>3 cm) might not be candidates for BT alone, because of high risk of late tissue toxicity caused by large volume implants. * Holland R et al.: Cancer 1985;56:

35 The significance of extensive intraductal component (EIC) Holland R et al.: J Clin Oncol 1990;8: Pts. with EIC are more likely to have residual tumour beyond 2 cm distance from the reference tumour than without EIC (33% vs. 2%)

42 APBI Direction of future clinical research Refinement of patient selection: years? Lobular cc.? DCIS? Close, but negative margins? 1-3 pos. lymph nodes? Selection of proper APBI technique: Brachytherapy? Multicatheter BT, MammoSite, Hybrid BT applicators Teletherapy? 3D-CRT, IMRT, IGRT Proton therapy? Standardisation of PTV definition: Selection of appropriate CTV to GTV (cavity) margin? Selection of appropriate PTV to CTV margin? How to avoid interobserver variability?

45 Conclusions APBI for a selected group of early-stage breast cancer patients produces long-term results similar to those achieved with conventional WBI. Until mature Phase III data: conservative patient selection criteria according to the GEC-ESTRO recommendations should be considered for selecting candidates for APBI. Long-term results of ongoing Phase III trials guidelines for patient selection should be revised and might be extended.
