Stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) may act synergistically to improve treatment outcomes but may also increase the risk of symptomatic radiation necrosis (RN).
This Viewpoint provides an evaluation of partial breast irradiation as an alternative to standard and hypofractionated whole-breast irradiation in terms of its ability to reduce duration of treatment and provide equivalent outcomes, comparable or reduced adverse effects, and cost-effectiveness.
