Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and analyze the prognostic factors of radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery for stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ breast cancer patients.Methods Clinical efficacy of adjuvant radiotherapy in 1 376 patients with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ (T1-2 N0-1 M0/T3NoM0) breast cancer after undergoing unilateral breast-conserving surgery between 1999 and 2013 was retrospectively reviewed.Among them,930 patients (67.6%) received radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy including 517 receiving radiotherapy followed by chemotherapy and 413 receiving chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy.In total,1 055 patients (76.7%) were treated with endocrine therapy.Eighty-six patients (39.6%) positive for HER-2 received targeted therapy.The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method.Univariate analysis was performed by Log-rank test and multivariate analysis was conducted by Cox regression method.Results The median follow-up time was 55 months.The quantity of patients receiving follow-up for ≥ 10 years was 90.The 5-and 10-year OS rates for all patients were 98.6% and 91.5%,and 94.6% and 82.8% for 5-and 10-year DFS rates.Mutivariate analysis revealed that age (P=0.016),T staging (P =0.006),N staging (P =0.004),lymphovascular invasion (P =0.038) and time interval between radiotherapy and surgery (P=0.048) were independent prognostic factors for DFS rate.Multivariate analysis demonstrated that N staging (P=0.044) and ER (P=0.026) were independent prognostic factors for DFS in the radiotherapy alone group.Conclusions The radiotherapy-based comprehensive treatment yields favorable clinical outcomes for stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ breast cancer patients after undergoing breast conserving surgery.The prognostic factors for DFS include age,T staging,N staging,lymphovascular invasion and the time interval between radiotherapy and breast-conserving surgery.In the radiotherapy alone group,DFS rate is associated with N staging and ER level.
