Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

This clinical research aims to determine if concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy is more effective than sequential chemotherapy and radiation therapy for patients with stage IIB-III breast cancer. It seeks to answer the following key questions: 1. When compared to sequential treatment, does concurrent chemoradiotherapy increase disease-free survival? 2. What effects does concurrent treatment have on post-operative look, quality of life, and side effects including arm swelling (lymphoedema)? 3. What are each treatment approach's financial costs? Researchers will compare the following to groups: Arm A: Participants in the sequential treatment group will first undergo chemotherapy and then radiation. and Arm B: Participants in the concurrent treatment group will undergo radiation therapy while undergoing chemotherapy. Participants are going to: 1. Get the usual chemotherapy (taxanes and/or anthracyclines). 2. Receive radiation therapy for three to four weeks. 3. Have follow-up visits every 6months for 5years to check for cancer recurrence, side effects, and quality of life.
