Key Points Question For early breast cancer, is 5-year local control with delayed second-procedure targeted intraoperative radiotherapy (TARGIT-IORT) noninferior to whole-breast postoperative external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), and how do long-term outcomes compare? Findings In this randomized clinical trial including 1153 participants, delayed second-procedure TARGIT-IORT was not noninferior to EBRT at 5-year complete follow-up; however, long-term (median 9 years) mastectomy-free survival, distant disease-free survival, and overall survival were not different. Meaning For early breast cancer, delayed second-procedure single-dose TARGIT-IORT given by reopening the lumpectomy wound had similar long-term mastectomy-free and overall survival compared with EBRT despite higher local recurrence.
