RESUMO

Importance: Women with large breast size treated with adjuvant breast radiotherapy (RT) have a high rate of acute toxic effects of the skin. Breast RT in the prone position is one strategy that may decrease these toxic effects. Objective: To determine if breast RT in the prone position reduces acute toxic effects of the skin when compared with treatment in the supine position. Design, Setting, and Participants: This phase 3, multicenter, single-blind randomized clinical trial accrued patients from 5 centers across Canada from April 2013 to March 2018 to compare acute toxic effects of breast RT for women with large breast size (bra band ≥40 in and/or ≥D cup) in the prone vs supine positions. A total of 378 patients were referred for adjuvant RT and underwent randomization. Seven patients randomized to supine position were excluded (5 declined treatment and 2 withdrew consent), and 14 patients randomized to prone position were excluded (4 declined treatment, 3 had unacceptable cardiac dose, and 7 were unable to tolerate being prone). Data were analyzed from April 2019 through September 2020. Interventions: Patients were randomized to RT in the supine or prone position. From April 2013 until June 2016, all patients (n = 167) received 50 Gy in 25 fractions (extended fractionation) with or without boost (range, 10-16 Gy). After trial amendment in June 2016, the majority of patients (177 of 190 [93.2%]) received the hypofractionation regimen of 42.5 Gy in 16 fractions. Main Outcomes and Measures: Main outcome was moist desquamation (desquamation). Results: Of the 357 women (mean [SD] age, 61 [9.9] years) included in the analysis, 182 (51.0%) were treated in the supine position and 175 (49.0%) in prone. There was statistically significantly more desquamation in patients treated in the supine position compared with prone (72 of 182 [39.6%] patients vs 47 of 175 [26.9%] patients; OR, 1.78; 95% CI, 1.24-2.56; P = .002), which was confirmed on multivariable analysis (OR, 1.99; 95% CI, 1.48-2.66; P < .001), along with other independent factors: use of boost (OR, 2.71; 95% CI, 1.95-3.77; P < .001), extended fractionation (OR, 2.85; 95% CI, 1.41-5.79; P = .004), and bra size (OR, 2.56; 95% CI, 1.50-4.37; P < .001). Conclusions and Relevance: This randomized clinical trial confirms that treatment in the prone position decreases desquamation in women with large breast size receiving adjuvant RT. It also shows increased toxic effects using an RT boost and conventional fractionation. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01815476.

RESUMO

Patients with early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who are unable to undergo surgery can be offered radiation therapy (RT). Previously, conventional RT was offered; however, newer techniques such as stereotactic body RT (SBRT) have become available. The objective of the present systematic review was to investigate the effectiveness of RT with curative intent in patients with early-stage medically inoperable NSCLC. MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched for studies comparing stereotactic RT with curative intent compared with observation or other types of RT for early-stage, medically inoperable, NSCLC. Comparisons of radiation dosing or fractionation schedules for SBRT were included. We include 4 systematic reviews and 52 observational studies. The evidence suggests that SBRT compared with observation or other forms of RT, such as accelerated hypofractionated RT, 3-dimensional conformal RT, conventional fractionated RT, external beam RT, proton beam therapy, and carbon ion therapy, could have similar or improved results in survival or local control, with similar or fewer adverse effects. Evidence also suggests that local tumor control and survival were associated with the biologically effective dose (BED) for SBRT. Several studies suggested a cutoff of approximately 100 BED correlated significantly with patient outcomes. The presented evidence suggests that SBRT compared with other forms of RT is a reasonable treatment option for patients with medically inoperable early-stage NSCLC.
