1 To Radiate or Not? Is APBI the Right Compromise Solution? Partial Breast Irradiation for Breast Conserving Therapy Julia White MD Professor, Radiation Oncology

2 Agenda Role of radiotherapy in breast conservation what are the goals of treatment? Accelerated partial breast irradiation ( APBI) rationale, outcome and indications Comparison of APBI to Omission of radiotherapy post lumpectomy Intraoperative Partial Breast Irradiation ( IPBI).

3 Breast Conservation with Lumpectomy and Radiotherapy (RT) Equivalent long term survival is evident from breast conservation compared to mastectomy from numerous Phase III randomized trials from the U.S. and Europe - now with > 20 years of follow-up. Equivalent local regional cancer recurrence now reported from breast conservation compared to mastectomy from analyses that reflect modern treatment era; e.g. complete excision, systemic therapy, etc. Breast conservation affords many benefits including faster recovery, lower health costs, intact sensation, among others. Increasingly, modern registry and cost analysis support the benefit of breast conservation for early stage invasive breast cancer

4 Agarwal, JAMA surg 2014 Improved Disease Specific Survival with Breast Conservation Therapy vs Mastectomy SEER : 132,149 patients, BCT 92,671 (70.1%), Mastectomy alone 34,999 (26.5%), and mastectomy with RT 4479 (3.4%).

5 Whole Breast Irradiation post-lumpectomy WBI method used in: Randomized control trials demonstrating equivalency of BCT to MRM Early Breast Cancer Trialists Collaborative Group s meta-analysis Registry Analyses Gy 5-8 Fractions 50 Gy/25 Fractions Gy/ 16 Fractions Total: Gy Fractions

6 Alternatives to WBI Post-Lumpectomy: Subject of Clinical Investigation for Decades! Randomized Trials Accrued Prior to 1990

7 Goals of Post-lumpectomy Radiotherapy Invasive breast cancer: Maximize local control Equivalence to mastectomy Prevent Distant Metastases Optimize breast cancer/ overall survival Maintain sensate and acceptable cosmetic breast appearance

8 ACCELERATED PARTIAL BREAST IRRADIATION (APBI)

9 Scientific Rationale for Radiation Targeted to the Tumor Bed Only Recurrences (LR) Away From Tumor Bed ( Elsewhere Failures-New Primary cancers): Much lower frequency after lumpectomy alone or followed by whole breast RT - LR Roughly 2-3% w/o RT and < 1% with RT * Major Effect Of Post-Lumpectomy RT: Reduce risk of recurrence in tumor bed region LR Roughly 10-25% w/o RT and 3-4% with RT * Potential Benefits: Less toxicity Reduced burden of care Better utilization of BCT * Milan 3, OCOG UOBCG

10 Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation Definition: Delivery of hypo fractionated ( i.e.larger doses/fraction) radiation to the high risk breast only (lumpectomy cavity plus 1-2 cm margin) AFTER Lumpectomy using brachytherapy or external beam irradiation techniques Goals: to achieve local control post-lumpectomy that is equivalent to WBI Accelerated PBI Gy/ 6-10 treatments 5-8 days

28 HOW IS APBI DOES A COMPROMISE APBI COMPARE TO IN OMISSION THE QUESITON OF POST OF LUMPECTOMY RADIOTHERAPY? RADIATE OR NOT?

29 Rationale for Omission of RT Early Breast Cancer Trialists meta-analysis in 2011 of 17 randomized trials of RT vs No RT post lumpectomy Post lumpectomy RT results in 15% reductions in any recurrence and 3% gains in survival in node negative patients However, low risk node negative with low absolute reduction in recurrence did not derive a survival benefit This means it s feasible to identify low risks patient that omission of RT will not threaten survival but will have higher local recurrence that may be acceptable EBCTCG Lancet 2011; 378:

32 Conclusions APBI 1. APBI post lumpectomy results in LRR equivalent to WBI in Stage 1 hormone sensitive, HER 2 negative breast cancer 2. Updated ASTRO consensus guidelines for APBI are recommended 3. APBI role remains questionable pending further RCT results in other breast cancer subtypes and in more advanced stages 4. In contrast to APBI, omission of RT post lumpectomy yields higher local regional recurrences that are unlikely to be associated with excess breast cancer mortality and may be clinically acceptable to patients trials are pending. 5. Women must be included on decision making for personalizing their breast conservation therapy.

33 INTRAOPERATIVE RADIOTHERAPY (IORT) FOR PBI

34 Definitions Partial Breast Intraoperative Radiotherapy (IORT): the delivery of a single high dose (~18-21 Gy) of irradiation directly to the post excision tumor bed during surgery prior to wound closure

35 Intraoperative PBI ADVANTAGES Very localized dose Direct visualization of area to treat Reduce patient burden of care Reduce travel for external beam WBI Spare second procedure for brachytherapy APBI DISADVANTAGES Too localized dose Final pathology unknown Patient may receive unnecessary treatment Additional O.R time

36 Electron IORT Breast Cancer Mobile linear accelerators in O.R. 6-8 MeV electrons ( 4-15 MeV) 5-8 cm diameter cones for treatment ~ 1 3 cm depth of breast tissue ELIOT Developed European Institute of Oncology, Milan, Italy Added lead shield under mobilized breast to protect chestwall

43 Summary IORT PBI Expanding evidence regarding IORT PBI Will benefit from additional follow up and analysis to find a population of breast cancer patients best suited for this approach Recommend if used to focus on ASTRO suitable group: > 50, ER +, Node Negative, < 2 cm tumors. Likely will benefit patients most who have some local control risk but whose risk for distant metastases is inherently low and the intent is its use will maximize breast conservation success.
