Acute Radiation Dermatitis After Adjuvant Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer Patients With the Use of Silver-Plated Technology

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Patients who are eligible to receive adjuvant whole breast radiotherapy with or without regional nodal irradiation as part of their care will be included in this study. Patients will use Silver-plated technology (SPT) dressing as directed per user instruction manual and change dressings weekly. Patients will continue to wear the SPT dressing for 2 weeks following completion of RT. The presence and severity of ARD will be recorded at the time of the weekly OTV and at one month after finishing the treatment.
