Personalizing Radiation Treatment Delivery in the Management of Breast Cancer

Abstract EN

Long-term data establishes the efficacy of radiotherapy in the adjuvant management of breast cancer.

New dose and fractionation schemas have evolved and are available, each with unique risks and rewards.

Current efforts are ongoing to tailor radiotherapy to the unique biology of breast cancer.

In this review, we discuss our efforts to personalize radiotherapy dosing using genomic data and the implications for future clinical trials.

We also explore immune mechanisms that may contribute to a tumor’s unique radiation sensitivity or resistance.
