While increasing proportion of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients are treated with IMPT, LET correlations with MR-IC have not yet been investigated for this group. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the potential influence of LET on the development of MR-IC in HNC patients treated with IMPT. Material and Methods 13 HNC patients, all diagnosed with MR-IC, were included in the analysis. Lesions contoured on post contrast T1- weighted MRIs were propagated to the patient planning CT through rigid registration. Treatment plans were re- calculated using an in-house fast Monte Carlo system to obtain dose- and LET distributions for further voxel based analysis. Voxels inside and outside the lesions were defined as events and non-events, respectively. Four logistic regression models were developed; one multivariate model with LET and dose as predictors (M1) and three univariate models with dose (M2), variable RBE weighted dose (M3) and LET (M4) as predictors. For three of the models (M1-M3) information from all voxels within the lesions as well as voxels outside with dose >40 Gy(RBE) were used for modelling. The fourth model (M4), was developed on a data set in which the voxels inside and outside the lesions were matched by dose with a ratio of 1:2, thus creating an similar distribution of dose levels between the event and non-event voxels. Model performance were assessed using the AUROC, calculated by leave one out cross validation (LOOCV), where 13 training and test data sets were created by successively leaving a single patient out as test data, while the remaining patient data were used for training the model. Results All model coefficients were statistically significant with a p-value< 0.001. Both the multivariate model (M1), and the univariate model with LET as predictor (M4), showed increasing probability of MR-IC with increasing LET values (Figure 1a and 1c). The calculated dose at 5% probability of MR-IC based on M2 and M3, were 64.6 Gy(RBE) and 68.8 Gy(RBE) , respectively (Figure 1b). For the multivariable model, the linear relationship between the LET and the dose was described by a slope of -2.4 Gy / (keV/µ) (Figure 1d). From our LOOCV analysis we found that the AUC was approximately similar for both the multivariable model and the two models that utilized dose or variable RBE dose as predictors, all with AUC above 0.82. The performance of the model with LET as predictor was however lower, with a mean AUC of 0.671 (Table I).

Conclusion Though the effect of LET is small compared to the dominating physical dose, an increase in probability of MR- IC was showed with increasing LET values. It is therefore important to combine LET with dose in predictive models for MR-IC. PD-0179 Clinical results of partial- and whole breast irradiation in early stage breast cancer J. Haussmann 1 , B.

However, the extend of breast tissue that has to be targeted with radiation has not been determined yet. Traditionally, the whole breast was covered by two opposing tangential beams. Several randomized have tested partial breast irradiation (PBI) compared to whole breast irradiation (WBI) using different radiation techniques. We aimed to assess whether PBI is an appropriate option and which patient group and which techniques might be suitable. Material and Methods We performed a systematic literature review searching for randomized trials comparing WBI and PBI in early stage breast cancer with publication dates after 2010. The meta- analysis was performed using the published event rates and the effect-sizes for in-breast tumor recurrence (IBTR), overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS) and disease-free survival (DFS) as investigated endpoints. We also aimed to compare the PBI techniques for IBTR and OS as well as adverse event rates including cosmetic outcomes and adverse events. Statistical analysis was performed using the Microsoft Excel add-in MetaXL 5.3 utilizing the inverse variance heterogeneity model.
