Abstract in brief

  • The TARGIT trial studied a new way to treat breast cancer called intraoperative radiotherapy, which delivers radiation directly during surgery, and found it to be just as effective as traditional external beam radiotherapy for preventing cancer recurrence.
  • Over the long term, patients who received intraoperative radiotherapy did not experience worse outcomes and had fewer deaths from causes unrelated to breast cancer.
  • The results suggest that TARGIT should be discussed with patients during preoperative planning as a patient-centered, innovative treatment option.]

TARGIT-IORT radiotherapy during lumpectomy for breast cancer: effective in all subgroups, produces excellent prognosis even when there is a local relapse, and reduces deaths from heart attacks and other cancers. https://t.co/vKplK5hxZ2 https://t.co/fGDguskHBr

TARGIT-IORT during lumpectomy for #breastcancer is better for patients than whole-breast radiotherapy: As effective Greatly reduced non-breast-cancer deaths (10%→5%) Less pain & toxicity Improved quality of life & cosmetic outcome Lower cost to the NHS https://t.co/fGDguskHBr
