Summary

This study looks at whether women who had breast cancer come back after earlier lumpectomy and radiation can avoid a mastectomy by getting a second round of targeted radiation. About 120 women with small, isolated recurrences will receive partial or whole breast radiation depending on their prior treatment. The main goal is to see if this approach is safe and does not cause severe side effects.
