Brief Summary: The incidence of chest CT manifestations of lung injury after radiotherapy for breast cancer is more than 50%. Although the prognosis and quality of life of patients are rarely affected, it is still necessary to prevent the occurrence of minor radiation lung injury with the use of more novel drugs and subsequent salvage treatment may aggravate the radiation injury. This study intends to conduct a randomized, double-blind, single-center clinical study of pirfenidone versus placebo in the prevention of acute radiation induced lung injury after breast cancer surgery
Detailed Description: The incidence of chest CT manifestations of lung injury after radiotherapy for breast cancer is more than 50%. Although the prognosis and quality of life of patients are rarely affected, it is still necessary to prevent the occurrence of minor radiation lung injury with the use of more novel drugs and subsequent salvage treatment may aggravate the radiation injury. This study intends to conduct a randomized, double-blind, single-center clinical study of pirfenidone versus placebo in the prevention of acute radiation induced lung injury after breast cancer surgery.In this study, the incidence of grade 1-4 radiation lung injury was expected to be 60% in the radiotherapy alone group (placebo group), and pirfenidone capsules (experimental group) were expected to reduce the incidence of lung injury after radiotherapy to 40%. Bilateral test showed a statistical efficacy of 0.8 (α option 0.05). In this study, two independent rate comparison sample sizes were used to calculate, Binomial Enumeration method was used for 97 patients in both groups, and the expected shedding rate was 10%. 107 patients were needed in each group, and the total sample size was 214. Biological specimens are expected to be obtained from more than 100 patients.
