| Abstract | Objective This meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of accelerated partial breast irradiation versus whole-breast irradiation for early-stage breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery. Materials and methods A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane libraries was performed according to the PRISMA statement the last 10 years to April 7, 2020 to identify the randomized controlled trials of APBI versus WBI for treating patients with early-stage breast cancer. Two independent observers evaluated the identified studies. The obtained data were analyzed using the RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 10 randomized controlled trials involving 15,500 patients with early-stage breast cancer were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and included in this meta-analysis. In this meta-analysis, we included ten studies that reported local recurrence and found significant differences in local recurrence rates (HR = 1.46; 95% CI 1.20–1.79, P = 0.0002). Further analysis showed that this difference may be related to the choice of treatment methods. No differences in distant metastasis, breast cancer deaths, contralateral breast cancer, disease-free survival, and overall survival rates were observed between WBI and APBI groups. There was no significant difference in late toxicity, cosmetic outcomes and quality of life between the two groups, the compliance and tolerance of the patients were well. Compared to whole breast irradiation, accelerated partial breast irradiation significantly reduced serious (≥ grade 2) early toxicities, especially regarding acute skin toxicity. Conclusions The analysis showed that patients receiving APBI had a higher local recurrence rate, but no differences in distant metastasis, breast cancer deaths, contralateral breast cancer, disease-free survival, and overall survival rates. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
