Purpose
The aim of this study is to prospectively evaluate, in patients affected by early breast
cancer, safety and feasibility of single fraction radiotherapy with Cyberknife R in
preoperative setting, and to identify factors predictive for outcome based on biologic and
clinical parameters.
Detailed Description
Monocentric, open-label, single-arm phase II study evaluating safety and efficacy of
neoadjuvant radiotherapy in early breast cancer patients. Patients eligible are women aged 50
or more years old, affected by histologically proven invasive breast cancer, with positive
hormonal receptors, grading 1 or 2, HER-2 negative, without lymphovascular invasion, and
tumour size up to 2 cm (measured on mammography, ultrasound or magnetic resonance), negative
clinical nodal status, eligible for BCS.

5. Grading 1 or 2
6. Her2 negative (IHC 0-1+; in patients with IHC 2+, absence of amplification at FISH
7. No lymphovascular invasion evidence at biopsy
8. Early breast cancer (T1 N0 M0) clinically and radiologically defined (ultrasound
study/ magnetic resonance)
9. Patients eligible for BCS.
