Brief summary

This study is to determine whether acute treatment-associated adverse events following breast re-irradiation with aPBI are acceptably low and to assess local control following breast re-irradiation with aPBI. An exploratory aim is to assess cosmetic outcomes following breast re-irradiation with aPBI.

Interventions

RADIATIONReirradiation

This is a prospective, single-arm, phase I/II clinical trial. The study will be conducted in two stages. We plan to enroll the first 11 participants into the phase 1 portion of the trial and follow them for toxicities for 1 year. Once toxicity assessment is complete and safety is determined, an additional 22 participants
