Acerca de la investigación
This phase III, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial evaluates whether ultrafractionated radiotherapy (26Gy/5Fx) is non-inferior to moderate hypofractionated radiotherapy (40Gy/15Fx) in terms of local-regional recurrence for breast cancer patients after curative surgery (breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy). A total of 2,872 patients will be enrolled from 14 Chinese centers. Participants will be stratified by surgery type, lymph node status, TNBC subtype, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy status. The primary endpoint is local-regional recurrence rate; secondary endpoints include overall survival, disease-free survival, distant metastases, breast cancer-specific survival, toxicity, cosmetic outcomes, and quality of life. This study will provide high-level evidence on whether a 5-fraction ultra-hypofractionated regimen can safely replace the standard 15-fraction moderately hypofractionated regimen in the post-operative setting.

Inclusion Criteria:
- 1\. Age ≥ 18 years, female or male. 2. Histologically confirmed invasive breast carcinoma. 3. Underwent curative-intent breast cancer surgery, including total mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery, with microscopically negative margins (ink-negative margins).
4\. Axillary staging performed by sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) or axillary lymph node dissection (ALND).
5\. For patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery:
1. Negative surgical margins (ink-negative margins).
2. Meets indications for tumor bed boost: ipsilateral multifocal disease is permitted; patients at low risk who may be exempt from boost are excluded: age ≥ 50 years, T1N0, histological grade I-II, ER-positive.
3. If primary surgery without neoadjuvant chemotherapy: pathological stage T1-3N0-3a (excluding N2b).
4. If neoadjuvant chemotherapy was received: clinical stage T1-3N0-2 and pathological stage T0-3N0-3a (excluding N2b).
6\. For patients undergoing total mastectomy:
<!-- -->
1. Has indications for local ± regional radiotherapy.
2. Without neoadjuvant chemotherapy: pathological stage T3N0, or T1-3 N1-3a (excluding N2b).
3. With neoadjuvant chemotherapy: clinical stage T3N0, or T1-3N1-2, and pathological stage T0-3N0-3a (excluding N2b).
7\. No evidence of metastatic disease. 8. ECOG performance status 0-1.
Exclusion Criteria:
* 1\. Initial pathological diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) without invasive carcinoma.
2\. T4 breast cancer, including inflammatory breast cancer. 3. Clinical or pathological stage with pathologically confirmed positive supraclavicular, infraclavicular, or internal mammary lymph nodes, or radiologically suspicious nodes considered to require boost irradiation.
4\. Patients who have undergone implant-based breast reconstruction, including prosthetic reconstruction or tissue expander placement.
5\. Known BRCA mutation carriers (testing is not required but if known, patients are excluded).

Ultrafractionated Radiotherapy
26Gy in 5 fractions to the breast/chest wall with or without regional nodal irradiation. For breast-conserving surgery patients, a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) of 31Gy in 5 fractions is delivered to the tumor bed.
Radiation: Ultrafractionated Radiotherapy
Moderately Hypofractionated Radiotherapy
40Gy in 15 fractions to the breast/chest wall with or without regional nodal irradiation. For breast-conserving surgery patients, a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) of 48Gy in 15 fractions is delivered to the tumor bed.
Radiation: Moderately Hypofractionated Radiotherapy
Ultrafractionated Radiotherapy RADIATION
26Gy in 5 fractions (5.2Gy per fraction) to the breast/chest wall; SIB of 31Gy in 5 fractions (6.2Gy per fraction) for tumor bed after breast-conserving surgery. Regional nodal irradiation is permitted per protocol criteria.
Moderately Hypofractionated Radiotherapy RADIATION
Moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy delivered to the breast/chest wall with or without regional nodal irradiation. The total dose is 40 Gy in 15 fractions (2.67 Gy per fraction) over 3 weeks. For patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery, a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) of 48 Gy in 15 fractions (3.2 Gy per fraction) is delivered to the tumor bed. Regional nodal irradiation includes internal mammary nodes (IMN), supraclavicular nodes (SCN), and/or level I-II axillary nodes (ALN) as clinically indicated per protocol.
