Official title
An International Randomised Controlled Trial to Compare Targeted Intra-operative Radiotherapy Boost With Conventional External Beam Radiotherapy Boost After Lumpectomy for Breast Cancer in Women With a High Risk of Local Recurrence.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
TARGIT-Boost is an international randomised clinical trial designed to test the hypothesis that the tumour bed boost delivered as a single dose of targeted intraoperative radiotherapy (TARGIT-B) is superior to the conventional course of external beam radiotherapy boost (EBRT-Boost), especially in women with high risk of local recurrence. It is a pragmatic trial in which each participating centre can use the local predefined inclusion/exclusion criteria for entry into the trial. Only centres with access to the Intrabeam® (Carl Zeiss) are eligible to enter patients into the trial. Eligible patients are those with a higher risk of local recurrence after breast conserving surgery. After giving consent patients are randomised to either TARGIT Boost or EBRT Boost. All patients will receive whole breast EBRT. They may receive any other adjuvant treatments as deemed necessary. The protocol recommends that patients be followed at six monthly intervals for three years and then annually. The primary endpoint is ipsilateral breast recurrence rate. Secondary endpoints are relapse-free survival, site of recurrence, overall survival (breast-cancer specific and non-breast cancer deaths) patient satisfaction and quality of life.
