Interpretation: RT reduced both recurrence and breast cancer mortality in women with positive lymph nodes.

Similar effects:

• Irrespective of the number of involved lymph nodes 

• Whether systemic therapy was given or not

• More benefit after partial or no AD

• Less benefit if only regional RT

Loma Linda University, website 14 June 2015: http://www.protons.com/proton‐therapy/proton‐treatments/breast‐cancer/benefits‐of‐proton‐treatment.page?

What are the benefits of proton therapy for breast cancer patients?Proton therapy is a relatively newer cancer treatment for early stage breast cancer, but it has already shown remarkable promise and advantages over conventional therapy in the treatment of breast cancer. The accuracy and low impact of proton radiation therapy is a non‐invasive and low‐risk option for breast cancer treatment used to destroy cancerous cells or tissue. Proton radiation treatment is extremely precise and therefore more effective at targeting cancerous cells without causing damage to surrounding breast tissue.Proton therapy is not a substitute for a lumpectomy. Rather, it is an alternative to traditional radiation therapy. After the lumpectomy has been complete, a breast cancer patient would receive 10 days of proton treatment instead of five to six weeks of traditional radiation therapy.

Breast cancer patients benefit from non‐invasive proton therapy treatment.• Proton treatment is noninvasive and painless• Proton therapy is effective for treating early stage breast cancer• Treatment offers quicker recovery times with minimal side effects• Causes less cosmetic damage compared with the burn marks caused by regular radiation• It is more accurate and precise than other kinds of radiation• Treatment is provided in an outpatient setting• Proton radiation has little to no impact on patient energy level

It is likely that not the full effect of regional RT has been obtained: see also EORTC IJROBP 2001 paper.

To treat or not to treat the IMN: Conclusions

• Regional RT improves outcome.

• Interaction with risk factors & other treatments.

• (Very) limited toxicity.

• No treatment related mortality (yet?)

• Selection of pts to be worked out.

• If you do it, do it safe!
