Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This study aims to compare acute adverse events and quality of life (QOL) after moderate hypofractionated (MHF) and ultra-hypofractionated (UHF) whole-breast irradiation in patients who have undergone breast-conserving surgery, using standardized assessment tools (PRO-CTCAE and CTCAE) from both patient-reported outcome (PRO) and clinician-reported outcome (CRO) perspectives.

Basic objectives2

Others

Basic objectives -Others

To compare PRO-CTCAE and CTCAE assessments of radiation-related symptoms, evaluate longitudinal changes in patient-reported burden, determine the proportion selecting UHF, and generate evidence on the role of patient perspectives in treatment evaluation and decision-making.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Proportion of patients with PRO-CTCAE-assessed radiation-related skin reactions of moderate or higher severity at any time from treatment initiation to the 7-week post-treatment assessment

Key secondary outcomes

(1)Proportion of patients reporting moderate or higher severity on the PRO-CTCAE for each of the following symptoms at any assessment from treatment initiation to the 7-week post-treatment evaluation: erythema, hyperpigmentation, pruritus, breast swelling/tenderness, skin dryness, pain, and fatigue.
(2)Longitudinal changes in PRO-CTCAE scores for the above symptoms.
(3)Proportion of patients with CTCAE-graded adverse events occurring at any time from treatment initiation to the 7-week post-treatment evaluation.
(4)Distribution of severity grades for each symptom as reported by both PRO-CTCAE and CTCAE.
(5)Proportion of patients who selected ultra-hypofractionated radiotherapy (UHF).
