Brief Title: IORT-Breast at Medical Center Navicent Health
Official Title: Prospective Registry of Intraoperative Radiation Therapy Using Low Energy X-ray for Breast Cancer at Medical Center, Navicent Health
Study ID: NCT04595435
Brief Summary: Intraoperative Breast Radiation Therapy (IORT-Breast) utilizing the Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System (Xoft) has been recently introduced as a treatment option for women 50 years of age and older who have early stage, low risk Invasive Breast Cancer (IBC). Clinical trials have shown IORT to be non-inferior to whole breast radiation, however some concern continues with rates of recurrence and clinical outcomes. Given the recent introduction and continued debate it is an excellent opportunity to observe and monitor outcomes in the patients that are treated at Navicent Health through this prospective, observational registry. The opportunity also permits examination of the participant's thoughts and feeling on Quality of Life and Cosmetic Appearance
Detailed Description: Objectives: (primary and important secondary objectives) The primary objective is to determine rates of recurrence at 5, and 10 years following IORT-Breast at Navicent Health. Secondary objectives include determination of acute and late effects of IORT-Breast at the treatment site, cosmetic outcomes and satisfaction over 10 years. In addition, the study will determine why patients who were scheduled for IORT-Breast did not receive it after lumpectomy. Study Design: Prospective, observational registry. Setting/Participants: The study focuses on outpatients/short stay surgery performed at the Medical Center, Navicent Health, Macon, GA only. Participants have been deemed eligible for IORT-Breast or have received IORT-Breast within the last 6 months. Key eligibility criteria for IORT- Breast includes women, aged 55 years old or greater, diagnosed with clinically node negative, grade 1 or 2 Invasive Breast Cancer with no lymphovascular invasion, that is 20mm or less in greatest dimension, Estrogen Receptor (ER) positive, HER 2 Neu Negative, and with a depth greater than 10mm from skin. Study Interventions and Measures: Participants will be eligible for IORT-Breast or have received IORT-Breast in the previous 6 months. Participants who were scheduled for IORT-Breast and do not receive IORT-Breast will have reasons for not receiving IORT-Breast recorded and will not be followed further. Participants receiving IORT-Breast will have treatment parameters recorded and will be followed every 6 months for 2 years and then annually until up to 10 years following treatment.
