External Validation of a Predictive Model for Acute Skin Radiation Toxicity in the REQUITE Breast Cohort

Abstract: Background: Acute skin toxicity is a common and usually transient side-effect of breast radiotherapy although, if sufficiently severe, it can affect breast cosmesis, aftercare costs and the patient's quality-of-life. The aim of this study was to develop predictive models for acute skin toxicity using published risk factors and externally validate the models in patients recruited into the prospective multi-center REQUITE (validating pREdictive models and biomarkers of radiotherapy toxicity to reduce side-effect… Show more

“…A recently published logistic regression model for acute breast desquamation after adjuvant external beam breast radiation therapy developed in 3 combined external breast radiation therapy cohorts failed to validate in the multicenter REQUITE cohort. 24 The aim of this study was to use ML algorithms to develop and optimise a prediction model for acute desquamation in the REQUITE breast cancer cohort . ML techniques have previously been used to predict acute skin toxicity during breast radiation therapy.…”

“…To that extent, a logistic regression model for acute breast desquamation after external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) recently developed in 3 combined radiation therapy cohorts failed to validate externally in the multicenter international REQUITE cohort. 24 Therefore, the aim of this study was to use ML algorithms to develop and optimise a prediction model for acute breast desquamation after EBRT in the REQUITE breast cancer cohort.…”
