a formal clinical study for any of the following:

- Early breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery

- Localized prostate cancer

- Gynecological cancer (may have also received brachytherapy)

- Venous blood samples must be available

- Patients will be identified from the following clinical studies:

- Cambridge intensity-modulated radiotherapy breast randomized trial

- RT01 prostate radiotherapy randomized trial/other prostate trials

- Christie hospital breast, prostate, and gynecological cancer radiotherapy
patients

- Must have minimum follow up with late normal tissue effect scoring for two years
available

PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:

- No other malignancy prior to treatment for the specified tumor types except basal
cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma

Intervention(s)
Genetic: gene expression analysis
Genetic: gene rearrangement analysis
Genetic: polymorphism analysis
Other: laboratory biomarker analysis
Radiation: radiation therapy
Primary Outcome(s)
Correlation of association between common genetic variations, reported by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in relevant candidate genes, with individual patient variability in normal tissue radiation response and toxicity [Time Frame: No]
Secondary Outcome(s)
Comparison of clinical scoring systems with analytical measures of normal tissue outcome using volume change in the breast measured by laser camera [Time Frame: Yes]
Comparison of detailed 3D dose-volume analysis with late effects and SNP results [Time Frame: No]
Comparison of different clinical scoring systems for late normal tissue effects [Time Frame: Yes]
Correlation of actuarial analysis of late effects changes over time with PRS [Time Frame: No]
Correlation of family history information with SNP analysis to produce a polymorphism risk score (PRS) [Time Frame: No]
PRS analyses against tumor control probability (TCP), using survival as a surrogate for TCP where necessary, and normal tissue complications vs tumor control probability [Time Frame: No]
