Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy may kill any tumor cells remaining after surgery

PURPOSE This randomized phase III trial is studying radiation therapy to see how well it works compared to no further therapy in treating women with stage I stage II or stage III breast cancer that has been surgically removed
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the effect of irradiation of the homolateral internal mammary and medial supraclavicular lymph node chains vs no further therapy on survival disease-free survival metastasis-free survival and cause of death in women with resected stage IIIIII breast cancer

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified by participating institution tumor location type of prior breast surgery pathologic T and N stage menopausal status and time sequence of radiotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms

Arm I Patients receive no nodal irradiation
Arm II Patients receive irradiation of the internal mammary and medial supraclavicular lymph node chains delivered at 1 fraction per day 5 sessions per week for a total of 25 fractions over 5 weeks Radiotherapy must begin no later than 8 weeks after surgery If adjuvant chemotherapy is given radiotherapy begins within 6 weeks after the last course of chemotherapy and within 8 months after surgery

Patients are followed at least yearly after randomization for up to 20 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 4000 patients will be accrued for this study within 4 years
