Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of super hypofractionated whole breast irradiation (SHF-WBI) in breast cancer patients treated with breast conserving surgery. Eligible breast cancer patients will be followed for at least 5 years to evaluate the acute and late radiation-induced toxicities, locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, death, contralateral breast cancer and quality of life.
