Abstract
Background: Around a quarter of breast cancer patients treated by surgery and radiotherapy experienceclinically significant toxicity, which may adversely affect breast cosmesis and qualityof life (QoL). If patients at high risk of toxicity could be identified at diagnosis,this could be taken into account when discussing treatment options. This study wasdesigned to identify common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated withacute radiation toxicity and change in QoL on completion of radiotherapy.
