Researchers presenting at ASTRO 2015, the premier radiation oncology scientific event in the world, unveiled new data this week that could fundamentally change the way that early stage breast cancer is treated.
Results from a landmark prospective, randomized, multicenter phase III study conducted in Europe demonstrated that APBI brachytherapy leads to equivalent overall survival and local cancer control rates as compared to WBI after breast conserving surgery for selected patients with early stage breast cancers. These data were presented during the ASTRO official press conference and published in The Lancet, a leading high-impact global peer-reviewed medical journal.
“We have been confidently offering APBI brachytherapy to selected women for years based on numerous phase II, single site and large registry studies that have confirmed the clinical utility of site-specific radiation delivered in a condensed timeframe,” said Frank A. Vicini, M.D., radiation oncologist, 21st Century Oncology, Royal Oak, Mich. and contributing author to the 2009 and 2013 ASTRO and ABS APBI guidelines. “The results from this landmark, multicenter, prospective randomized clinical study are the first to offer the critical level one evidence necessary to drive the fundamental changes in breast conserving cancer treatment that patients and healthcare professionals have been demanding for years.”

Ich bin die Märtyrerin Reem Saleh Riyashi; ich hoffte, dass meine zerstückelten Körperteile zu Granatsplittern werden, die die Zionisten in Stücke reissen, die mit den Schädeln der Zionisten an die Tore des Himmels klopfen. Wie oft habe ich meiner Seele gesagt: "Oh Seele, wenn du die Zionisten hasst, die Feinde meiner Religion, soll mein Blut meinen Weg in den Himmel ebnen. Seit dem 8. Schuljahr habe ich daraufhingearbeitet, täglich Menschen gesucht, die mich leiten können, mit zuhören und mir helfen könne. Wie oft habe ich mir gewünscht, einen Shahada-bringenden (Selbstmord)Angriff in Israel durchzuführen; durch meine Hartnäckigkeit und Allahs Hilfe ist mein Wunsch in Erfüllung gegangen.
