Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Early-stage breast cancer patients treated with breast conservative surgery are enrolled in this study if they meet defined criteria. Patients are randomized into two groups: conventional fractionation radiotherapy and hypofractionated radiotherapy.The hypothesis is that conventional fractionation radiotherapy and hypofractionated radiotherapy have similar efficacy and toxicity.
