Implementation of the Target Intraoperative Therapy Registry at Bethesda North TriHealth Hospital (TARGIT)
The purpose of this study is to create a registry to evaluate the use of intra-operative
radiation therapy (IORT) and to study the efficacy and toxicity of breast radiotherapy given
intra-operatively as a single fraction after breast conserving surgery,
radiation therapy (IORT) and to study the efficacy and toxicity of breast radiotherapy given
intra-operatively as a single fraction after breast conserving surgery,
A registry trial has been designed and modeled after the original successful TARGIT protocol,
to continue the use of IORT for a select population of women, and to follow outcomes with
regards to local and regional control, toxicity and morbidity. Patients selected for breast
conserving surgery, who are considered to have a low risk of local recurrence, are eligible
for this registry trial once their informed consent is obtained. This single arm cohort study
allows entry of patients who have been diagnosed with early stage breast cancer and whose
clinical stage is suitable for treating conservatively (small tumor and no gross nodal
involvement). Tumors should not be more than 3.5 cm in size.
