Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Preoperative SABER

  • Experimental: Preoperative Stereotactic Ablative Breast Radiotherapy (SABER). Phase I study testing up to 4 dose levels.
  • Non-experimental: Participants will undergo standard partial mastectomy and axillary surgery as per discretion of treating physician 4 to 6 weeks (+ at most 1 week delay) after preoperative SABER is completed.

Interventions

Stereotactic Ablative Breast Radiotherapy

Preoperative SABER: Participants will be treated with an assigned dose level of preoperative SABER, delivered in once a day, 5 fractions given on non-consecutive days, over a period of 2 weeks. In this phase I study, starting with dose level II, a dose level of preoperative SABER will be assigned per study dose-escalation design, treating 2 to 6 patients per dose level. The tested doses are the following:

  • Dose Level I: 35 Gy (5 fractions of 7 Gy)
  • Dose Level II (Starting Dose): 40 Gy (5 fractions of 8 Gy)
  • Dose Level III: 45 Gy (5 fractions of 9 Gy)
  • Dose Level IV: 50 Gy (5 fractions of 10 Gy)

Primary outcome measure

  • Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of Pre-Operative SABER [ Time Frame: Up to 13 Weeks ]
