Study of breast cancer after surgery using radiation planning
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study follows people with breast cancer who have already had surgery meant to cure the cancer. It checks how their radiation treatment is planned/handled, and whether it benefits patients compared with standard approaches.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have breast cancer and had curative (cancer-removing) surgery
- Your treatment plan is related to radiation after surgery
- You have not had any radiation therapy to the chest (thorax) before
- You are being considered as part of a breast cancer radiation follow-up study

This Phase 2 trial tests a shorter, focused radiation treatment after breast surgery, either alone or with an extra targeted boost. It’s for people with low-risk breast cancer and no spread to distant organs, aiming to keep results while reducing treatment time and side effects.
This trial aims to see if a shorter course of radiation after breast-conserving surgery affects arm swelling (lymphedema) in people with early breast cancer that has spread to 1 or 2 nearby lymph nodes. The goal is to learn if this approach is safe and effective.
This study looks at giving radiation after breast surgery using a very “hypo-fractionated” schedule, meaning fewer visits with higher dose per visit. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective for certain breast cancer and DCIS patients after complete tumor removal.
This trial studies a radiation schedule given after breast cancer surgery when your breast was rebuilt right away with a prosthesis (implant or similar). It aims to see whether this “hypofractionated” (fewer, larger treatment sessions) radiation approach is appropriate for patients who need additional (adjuvant) radiation to reduce recurrence risk.
This Phase 3 trial compares two radiation treatment schedules after mastectomy in people who had breast reconstruction. It aims to see which schedule works better and is easier to tolerate for preventing cancer from coming back.
This study looks at whether adding extra targeted radiation to the tumor area before breast-conserving surgery, then using modern breast surgery techniques and whole-breast radiation afterward, improves outcomes for early-stage breast cancer. You may be offered a treatment plan designed to better treat the area where the tumor was removed.
