Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • 1a. Female patient with a new histological diagnosis of DCIS only. OR
  • 1b. Female patient with a new histological diagnosis of invasive carcinoma of the breast and no evidence of metastatic disease.
  • 2\. Treated by BCS with microscopically clear resection margins for invasive and non-invasive disease (or no residual disease on re- excision).
  • 3\. Negative axillary node involvement including micrometastasis \<= 0.2mm or positive cells only identified by IHC as determined either by: (i) sentinel node biopsy (ii) axillary node dissection or (iii) clinical exam for patients with DCIS only

Exclusion

  • 1\. Age \< 40 years.
  • 2\. A known deleterious mutation in BRCA 1 and/or BRCA 2.
  • 3\. Tumour size \> 3 cm in greatest diameter on pathological examination (including both the invasive and non-invasive component).
  • 4\. Tumour histology limited to lobular carcinoma only.
  • 5\. History of cancer:
  • Patients with another active malignancy or malignancy treated \< 5 years prior to randomization are excluded.
  • Patients with a prior diagnosis of invasive or non-invasive breast cancer in either breast are excluded regardless of disease free interval. Patients with concurrent invasive or non-invasive contralateral breast cancer are also excluded.
  • Patients with prior or concurrent basal cell or squamous cell skin cancers are eligible for the trial.
  • 6\. More than one primary tumour in different quadrants of the same breast.
  • 7\. Previous irradiation to the ipsilateral breast that would preclude whole breast irradiation.
  • 8\. Presence of an ipsilateral breast implant or pacemaker.
  • 9\. Serious non-malignant disease (e.g. cardiovascular, pulmonary, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), scleroderma) which would preclude definitive radiation treatment.
  • 10\. Estrogen receptor status (ER) not known.
  • 11\. For patients not treated with adjuvant chemotherapy: unable to commence radiation therapy within 12 weeks of the last surgical procedure on the breast.
  • 12\. For patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy: unable to commence within 8 weeks of the last dose of chemotherapy.
  • 13\. Currently pregnant or lactating.
  • 14\. Psychiatric or addictive disorders which would preclude obtaining informed consent or adherence to protocol.
  • 15\. Geographic inaccessibility for follow-up.
  • 16\. Inability to localize surgical cavity on CT (i.e., no evidence of surgical clips or seroma).
  • 17\. Inability to adequately plan the patient for the experimental technique.
