Brief Summary

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

The purpose of the study is to evaluate treatment outcomes of breast cancer with internal mammary or supraclavicular lymph node metastasis according to total radiation dose of postoperative radiation therapy differentiated by tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* 5-year disease-free survival
* 5-year overall survival
* 5-year locoregional recurrence
* Adverse events after radiation therapy
* Quality of life

Participants will be assessed by multi-dimensional methods before and after radiotherapy:

* Disease status evaluation including physical and radiological examination
* Quality of life assessment with questionnaires (BREAST-Q)
* Adverse event assessment according to CTCAE version 5.0

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Postoperative radiation therapy to breast / chest wall and regional lymph node area

Patient achieved complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy will receive postoperative radiation therapy with dose of 42.4 Gy in 16 fractions to whole breast / chest wall and regional lymph node area. Internal mammary or supraclavicular lymph node area boost will be simultaneously delivered with total dose of 53.6 Gy in 16 fractions.

Patient with partial response, stable disease, or progressive disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy will receive postoperative radiation therapy with dose of 42.4 Gy in 16 fractions to whole breast / chest wall and regional lymph node area. Internal mammary or supraclavicular lymph node area boost will be simultaneously delivered with total dose of 56.0 Gy in 16 fractions.
