About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Phase Ⅱ Prospective Clinical Trial of Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation With IMRT After Breast-conserving Surgery in Early Breast Cancer

This study is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of accelerated partial breast irradiation (ABPI) with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in low-risk breast cancer treat with breast-conserving surgery.

Read the detailed description

This study is a national multicenter phase II prospective clinical trial to enroll low-risk breast cancer treat with breast-conserving surgery. All eligible patients will receive ABPI to a total dose of 40Gy, in 10 fractions, 4Gy/fx/day, within 2 weeks. Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) technique is used. During Follow up, the locoregional recurrence,survival,acute and late adverse events,and quality of life will be prospectively evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation in people with Breast Neoplasms and Neoplasm Recurrence, Local, run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2026. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

locoregional control rate (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 19 May 2026.
