Propensity-score matched pair comparison of accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) and whole breast irradiation (WBI) for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).

1123 Background: DCIS remains a cautionary criterion for APBI by the ASTRO APBI consensus statement. We performed a matched analysis to compare the efficacy of WBI and APBI for patients with DCIS. Methods: Women with DCIS treated with APBI or WBI were reviewed. APBI (n=102) patients with ≥2 y follow-up were matched 1:3 to WBI (n=546) patients with ≥5 y follow-up by age, tumor size, nuclear grade, ER status, margin status, and laterality. Ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR), distant metastasis (DM), contralateral breast cancer (CLBC) and cause-specific survival (CSS) were compared by cumulative incidence (Gray’s) and competing risks regression (Fine and Gray’s), and overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) by Kaplan-Meier (log-rank test). Results: Median follow-up was 4.6 y (2.0-14.7) for APBI and 9.0 y (5.4-27.0) for WBI. Median (range) or percentages are shown (Table). Patients did not differ by match criteria. There were 17 LR, 1 DM, 19 CLBC, 2 CSS, 22 OS, and 19 DFS events during fo...
