Among patients who received WBRT, higher radiation dose to the whole brain was not associated with survival (p = 0.10), but higher radiation dose to the gross tumor was associated with improved survival (p = 0.007). CONCLUSION Patients with PCNSL who are ineligible for systemic therapy may still benefit from WBRT with improvement in survival, compared with the best supportive care. Dose escalation through the addition of a gross tumor boost in these patients was associated with improved overall survival. Further studies in the prospective setting are necessary to confirm the findings from the study.PURPOSE This study examined the Sense of Coherence (SOC) of patients participating in the randomized controlled 'Optimal Training for Women with Breast Cancer' (OptiTrain) study and assessed how patient characteristics were associated with SOC. Secondary aims were to assess the association between SOC and patients' participation in this study and to determine whether SOC moderates the effect of the 16-week exercise intervention on fatigue, quality of life (QoL), and symptom burden in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. METHODS Modified Poisson regression analyses were conducted to determine the relative risk of weak-normal SOC versus strong SOC in terms of exercise session attendance, study and intervention dropout, and long absence rates. Analyses of covariance were performed to assess whether SOC moderated the effect of the exercise intervention (pinteraction ≤ 0.10). RESULTS Two hundred and forty women with early breast cancer (mean age 53 ± 10) participated in the OptiTrain study. Women with strong SOC reported less fatigue, lower symptom burden, and higher QoL. Women with weak-normal SOC were significantly more li
