Abstract
The “Assisi Think Tank Meeting” (ATTM) on Breast Cancer, endorsed by the European Society for Radiotherapy & Oncology (ESTRO) and the Italian Association of Radiotherapy and Clinical Oncology (AIRO), and conducted under the auspices of the European Society of Breast Cancer Specialists (EUSOMA), is a bi-annual meeting aiming to identify major clinical challenges in breast cancer radiation therapy (RT) and proposing clinical trials to address them. The topics discussed at the meeting are pre-selected by the steering committee. At the meeting, these topics are discussed in different working groups (WG), after preparation of the meeting by performing a systematic review of existing data and of ongoing trials. Prior to the meeting, each WG designs a survey on the topic to be discussed to reflect current clinical practice and to identify areas requiring further research. Herein, we present the work done by the Assisi WG focusing on lobular carcinoma and the RT perspectives in its treatment, including providing recommendations for locoregional therapy, mainly RT for patients with non-metastatic lobular breast cancer.
期刊介绍:
Radiotherapy and Oncology publishes papers describing original research as well as review articles. It covers areas of interest relating to radiation oncology. This includes: clinical radiotherapy, combined modality treatment, translational studies, epidemiological outcomes, imaging, dosimetry, and radiation therapy planning, experimental work in radiobiology, chemobiology, hyperthermia and tumour biology, as well as data science in radiation oncology and physics aspects relevant to oncology.Papers on more general aspects of interest to the radiation oncologist including chemotherapy, surgery and immunology are also published.
